This film belongs to Anupam Kher. Such is his performance, that one feels anger, pity, sorrow and hatred alongside him. He creates sheer magic with his character (a meek, hardworking 50-something father of three) and nurtures it to what is befittingly a happy end.
Khosla ka Ghosla is a quick witted, light hearted comedy/drama that has kept up to the potential of its star cast. Boman Irani (fresh of the success of Munnabhai) delivers yet another masterpiece. You try not to hate his character, but fail on every count.
The surprise package of the film has to be Ranvir Shorey. He has grown by leaps and bounds as an actor and has matured immensely from his VJing days. He has essayed his role with a lot of self-exuding method and panache.
Parvin Dabbas and Tara Sharma have quick sharp performances. As I mentioned, you really can't fault the star cast.
If there is a downside to the film, it has to be in its appeal to the masses. This reflects in the film being an honest to goodness story that fails to connect with the everyday 'junta'.
Indian cinema is coming of age and this is yet another step in the right direction.
7.5/10
