It’s a fun-filled week

Aate Di Chidi is a Punjabi black comedy film directed by Harry Bhatti and starring Amrit Maan, Neeru Bajwa and Gurpreet Ghuggi in lead roles. An expatriate Punjabi family heads to India after years of being away from their homeland. While the elders long to return to their roots, the young ones in the family are not too keen on this homecoming and hope to return to Canada soon. As both the generations vie to prove their point to one another, a hilarious series of events ensues.

A must watch

It’s a really nice film. I feel everyone should watch it. It reminded me of my childhood, the village days. The Punjab that is shown in this film is the Punjab I’ve lived in, today’s generation might not be able to believe there were such times too. I was crying while watching the film.

Cultural value

The film show’s Punjabi culture and it is educative for youngsters like me. I liked Amrit Mann the most.

Karan, student

Solution oriented

It shows how our values and beliefs are failing. The film has also given a solution. There is a comparison between those living in India but not valuing the culture and those who live in other countries such as Canada do everything to preserve them.

Namaste England

Namaste England is a Bollywood romantic comedy film directed and co-produced by Vipul Amrutlal Shah. The film is the sequel to 2007 film Namastey London and stars Arjun Kapoor and Parineeti Chopra in lead roles. It is a young and refreshing story of Jasmeet and Param, whose love story traces along different places from Punjab to Dhaka to Paris to Brussels to finally London.

Enjoyable fare

It’s a nice, romantic film. Something I enjoy watching. Arjun Kapoor has done a great job. The music too is good.

Mrs Bedi, housewife

Couple chemistry

I quite liked the understanding between the couple. The movie also has a message that there is no better country than your own. India is the best.

It’s funny

The trailer made it seem like a serious film but I was surprised it has good comedy. Both Arjun and Parineeti compliment each other.I like Badshah’s song the most.

Badhaai Ho

Badhaai Ho is a comedy drama film directed by Amit Ravindernath Sharma. The film stars Ayushmann Khurrana and Sanya Malhotra in the lead roles. Badhaai Ho is tipped to be a coming-of-age story with a tinge of romance. This film is based on children feeling terribly embarrassed by the outcome of their parents’ mid-age romance; with outsiders joining in criticism, conveys some really progressive thoughts.

Different subject

After a long time a nice film is showing with a different subject. I am excited for Ayushmann Khurrana.

Komal, accountant

Good concept

Badhai ho is based on a different concept and add to that Ayushmann’s acting- the film is quite interesting.

Vivek, student

Unique plot

The storyline is really good. It’s a unique concept. I don’t think such a movie is made before. I liked it.
