‘Khichdi – The Movie’, the small film with a big smile has been a trail blazer of sorts.
Followed by its box-office success, this film has paved the way for TV shows to don the silver screen avatar, hence, opening new vistas for Indian cinema.
And though it was pitted against two giants, the film managed to hold out on its own. The laugh riot was an instant hit with families.
Even Bollywood lapped it up. Shah Rukh Khan watched it with his family. Not only did he love the mannerisms of the characters, he also spoke about the benefits of a TV series becoming successful on big screen. Shahid Kapoor, meanwhile, was seen enjoying the film at the special screening. John Abraham, a big fan of the TV series, was happy with its filmi plans.
The film also got rave reviews from prominent comedy film directors like David Dhawan who felt that the film had punches galore which was the hallmark of any good comedy film. Even Narendra Modi, Chief Minister of Gujarat, gave a the film a thumbs up and has even requested the producers to make a sequel.
