- Quotes
Tulsidas 'Babuji' Parekh: Jayshree, are you bringing tea or should I order from outside ?
Jayshree Parekh: [Irritated] Ohh God, I am on my way. Here. And Babuji, today you'll get breakfast.
Tulsidas 'Babuji' Parekh: Why's that ?
Jayshree Parekh: Well, the beggar who usually comes up in the morning didn't turn up today.
Tulsidas 'Babuji' Parekh: This tea is a bit odd, isn't it ?
Jayshree Parekh: [Delighted] You felt it Babuji ?
Tulsidas 'Babuji' Parekh: Yes. What have you mixed ?
Jayshree Parekh: Pesticide obviously.
Tulsidas 'Babuji' Parekh: [Shocked] What ! Why ?
Jayshree Parekh: That cameleon who roams around in our kitchen accidentally fell into the kettle. I asked Praful Bhaiya to take care of it. And you know Praful Bhaiya.
Tulsidas 'Babuji' Parekh: That donkey Praful. I get the feeling I am going blind.
Jayshree Parekh: Please ensure nothing happens to you today atleast. We don't have a maid who can assist me.

[Receiving flashlight upon opening the door]
Jayshree Parekh: Hey, switch off those lights. Who're you ?
Buddhidev: [Complying] I am Eshwar. Buddhidev. Lord of wisdom. Would you like some sweets of intelligence ?
Jayshree Parekh: [Irritated further] Damn, I thought it was that beggar again.

Jayshree Parekh: Ohh great, I should head to the market.
[to the charotier]
Jayshree Parekh: Saarthi Kumar, take me over to Kandivali.
Buddhidev: [In sarcasm] Careful, there's traffic over there.

Aatish Kapadia both writes and directs this feature, and he does a good job of it. The movie is also very well cast, with every actor understanding the film's outrageously comic mood and acting accordingly. Supriya Pathak leads the film as the dumb Hansa with a terrific performance that is downright hilarious. Her screen presence is the strongest in the film; when she's on-screen, no one else exists, when she is not, you badly want her to reappear. Rajeev Mehta, Nimisha Vakharia, Jamnadas Majethia and Anang Desai play their roles excellently. What I liked about the film is the fact that it is not an unintentional comedy, it's a well-scripted picture which knows how it wants to work. To sum it up, Khichdi is an outstanding no-brainer and for me it is also quite addictive. I already want to watch it again.
