"Everyone is in the find of their Sunday! This is the umbrella under which Tu Hai Mera Sunday exists. It's a story of a group of friends, who basically aren't much happy with what's happening in their respective lives. This mixed bag of group consists a MBA from Berkeley Arjun Anand (Barun Sobti), A Muslim failed in love but never fails to impress the girls around him Rashid Sheikh (Avinash Tiwary), A Christian living with an over dramatic yet loving mom Dominic D'Souza (Vishal Malhotra), A Parsi frustrated from being single Mehernosh (Nakul Bhalla) & a businessman who's the oldest with age but a kid at heart Jayesh Garodia (Jay Upadhyay).
Everyone has back story as they try to find their Sunday in this life full of Mondays. Football, Goa trip & fighting for their happiness everyone tries everything just to stay happy. It starts with an old man Appa (Shiv Subrahmanyam) joins their football match and hits a socialite with the ball during her press conference. This results in the ban of playing football on Juhu beach ruining the happiest day of the group Sunday. The story is all about how all of these people come together to provoke a happy feeling in us. A feeling that we all are eligible to enjoy that one Sunday every week of our lives.
Tu Hai Mera Sunday Movie Review"We don't have space in Mumbai to enjoy little things of our life When a script has writing such as this, it's only you to assume what the entire film will all be about. When you say the most complex things in simplest ways that's when you're able to explain. Because of sadness, there's cinema but because of happiness there's Tu Hai Mera Sunday. It'll come out of nowhere and pull the strings of your heart to orchestrate a sweet tune.
The director & writer Milind Dhaimade's note read, "Indian cinema has forgotten its middle-class, and this movie tries its best to cover the issues an ordinary man could feel in his life. From a frustrated boss to a domineering mom the characters of the film are so well sketched that they'll remind you of yourself in some way or other. You just get on the ride to have the most exhilarating Sunday of your life. Some issues with the film I felt are language & pace. The movie is 90% in English and because of which many will try it hard to understand most of the sentences. The good thing is English used is very simple but I somehow missed the typical Mumbaiya Hindi. The pace somewhere slows down in some scenes but that's acceptable when you have so many characters to cover.
This is going to be long because every character of Tu Hai Mera Sunday deserves an applaud. Barun Sobti is the soul of the film. A guy running from stress living by the sole motto of do anything but stay happy. He aces his role and girls are surely going to drool over him. When there are too many characters, it's extremely hard to cement your presence. Avinash Tiwary does very well to make you believe in his story.
Shana Goswami as Kavi Ranganathan leaves us spellbound with her presence. Rasika Dugal, whom I remember for her brilliant performance in TVF's Humorously Yours. You'll to wish to see more of her all-heart performance. Maanvi Gagroo, also missed for her memorable performances in TVF's Pitchers and Tripling adds her charming touch to the film very well.
Vishal Malhotra an aspiring musician is everyone of us who aspired to be one in this city of speed. Nakul Bhalla! A Punjabi playing Parsi in the film is sincere and owns one amazing scene in the film. Jay Upadhyay the mature one in the group pops his inner kid in the most innocent way. Shiv Subrahmanyam deserves a special mention for the utmost genuineness he adds to the film.
Milind Dhaimade, who has written & directed the film, is one of those people with whom I would personally love to spend a day over coffee talking about films. We need stories like Tu Hai Mera Sunday and directors like him. His simpleton touch turns out to be very effective once the film starts sinking in. I'm not a trade pundit, but I wish this film to work for the entire team's effort.
The music is one of many best things of the film. Amartya Rahut has composed some amazing tracks which without disturbing complements the build up of the film. A fun fact! Arijit Singh decided to sing two songs for the film when he heard the scratch on his guitar player's mobile phone (Who has worked on the music of this film). The gang goes to Goa and it's impossible to come out of it without displaying its night life. A disco scene and I was expecting an useless party song but thank god Amartya concluded it with just music. This is where you feel the film doesn't welcomes any nonsense.
We usually take one hour to file the review but I took two for this one because Tu Hai Mera Sunday is special. Don't expect your mainstream Bollywood film from this one. This is one simple film trying to tackle few simple things which are usually overly thought by many.
Rating: 4 stars out of 5.
Between every two switches of the traffic signal, in those three seconds of respite that follow a blinking printing machine, every city asks just one question: Where's football for Sunday?
Starring TV heartthrob Barun Sobti and directed by Milind Dhaimade, 'Tu Hai Mera Sunday' is a cheerful ode to those snatched weekends, those lazy afternoons spent dribbling on the beach or apologizing to grumpy neighbours. It's a film about sand-filled sneakers and sudden splashes of rain. About impulse trips to Goa and childhood harmonicas eaten by rust ...pretty much everything we hold dear in our cramped-for-space, breathless city lives.
Barun plays Arjun Anand in the filma Berkeley MBA post-grad who houseguests at his sister's and chaperons an Alzheimer's patient to his football outings. Why? Two reasons: A. Arjun does not want to end up a corporate burnout. B. He has taken a liking to Kavya Ranganathan (Sahana Goswami), the Alzheimer's patient's daughter, a spirited career-girl in need of a Sunday nurse for her Appa.
Arjun's squad is completed by four eccentric friends who swear by his philosophy of taking it easy. There's Dominic a.k.a Domi (Vishal Malhotra), a hotheaded gunners' fan and helpless mama's boy. There's Rashid, a lovesick womanizer troubled by rat infestation in a messy room he refuses to clean out of plain nostalgia. Locking horns with him often is the geeky accountant Mehernosh, who writes anonymous hate mails to his Boss (Bosshole) while fancying the office beauty. Presiding over this young, wild bunch is a middle-aged Jayesh, Jayesh Bhai, whose only relief from his overly Gujarati household is his friends and football.
But in a city eternally sprawling out on itself, with only car-parked gullies and caged indoor stadiums left for hobbyists, how does one keep his inner Maradona alive?
This relatable misfortune forms the crux of Tu Hai Mere Sunday', which offers no solution other than a reassuring nudge to dribble past our urban obstacles and score one last goal at our countless, weekend-slotted dreams.
Years on, Sobti will definitely credit Tu Hai Mera Sunday' as that one film which helped him cross over to the movies without the handrail of his good looks or charm. He is surprisingly understated, and finally at home, in this delightful existential comedy. Sahana Goswami and Vishal Malhotra are equally fine players in this one, so is Avinash Tiwari (Rashid) and Jay Upadhyay (Jayesh).
A stripped-down love child of Dil Chahta Hai' and Zindagi Milegi Na Dobara', Tu Hai Mera Sunday' is pleasingly self-aware of its light-hearted tone, making no pretensions about its purpose beyond scooping out a feel-good, cinematic sundae' of sorts.
Occasionally the film prances into offside: over-philosophizes a simple scene or stretches its humour to mimicry; but beyond these forgivable oddities, Tu Hai Mera Sunday' is that one filmy breather that was a long time coming in the usual clutter of boisterous no-brainers and their counter-boisterous hyper-brainers.
Don't wait till Sunday for this one!
Slice-of-life is a difficult genre to attempt. For it can become downright boring if not done right. Tu Hai Mera Sunday, featuring an ensemble cast, promises to be a tale of five friends, who seek respite from the troubles of their daily lives by playing football on the beach on Sundays. However, when the sport is banned on Juhu beach, they suddenly find themselves at a loss. Well, lack of recreational spaces is certainly a problem in metropolitan cities but does it warrant a film? Let's find out...
What's it about
The lack of recreational spaces in a city only forms the backdrop for Tu Hai Mera Sunday. The story just pivots around that problem. The film starts off by straightway introducing us to the five friends, their easy camaraderie evident. Arjun (Barun Sobti), Dominic (Vishal Malhotra), Rashid (Avinash Tiwari), Mehernosh (Nakul Bhalla) and Jayesh (Jay Upadhyay) are all football fanatics and when they are not playing, they are bidding their time, waiting for Sundays. We are introduced to their families in quick succession and it is obvious that they have nothing in common with each other, except their love for the game. So, it is easy to imagine their dismay when their playground Mumbai's Juhu beach becomes a no play zone. As opposed to the saying that goes...All work and no play, makes Jack a dull boy, in the case of these five, it makes them angry and agitated. For they, like so many of us, are trying to run away from their problems by chilling out' on the weekends. Like true blue Mumbaikars, who never give up, they try to find alternative places for their Sunday game. But except society compounds with parked cars or building terraces, they find none. With all their pent up frustrations, they each breakdown, only differently. A Goa trip, which seems to be the answer to most troubles that plague the people of Mumbai, comes to their rescue, and it is there in the land of the sun, sand and sea that they finally come to terms with everything's that's wrong with their lives. And like every good break, it leaves them more whole and happy.
What's hot
Tu Hai Mera Sunday stands true to its genre, which is commendable since there must have been temptations to veer away into safe zones such as romantic-comedy, boy banter, or even drama. That's what works best for the film, apart from superlative performances by almost everyone. While nuanced and layered, every character is still kept extremely relatable. You can find yourself agreeing to what the character is doing sharing in their joys and commiserating with them in their sorrows. And that's only possible when you have actors who don't act' but rather live' their character. You can easily see the equation that the actors must share, for it is impossible to fake such candidness. Both Barun Sobti and Shahana Goswami are flawless, their awkward chemistry reminding you of you own hesitance while dealing with matters of the heart. Even the rest of the cast right from the lady who plays Dominic's mother to the one who plays the amnesia-stricken dad of Kavya everyone is spot on! And while it lags a little in the second half, the film is overall an easy-breezy affair, not dragging itself self-indulgently.
What's not
As is the case with Bollywood films, this one, too, falls prey to the cliches. So you have the lecherous and impudent boss, who derives sadistic pleasure in harassing his employees, and also the overly-devotional Gujarati family, who only chant mantras or count their pennies. A film like this could have easily steered clear of all that. Also, while the songs were pleasant, they were rather forgettable. A slice-of-life film can highly benefit from a tune that's hummable and stays with you, like an aftertaste, long after you have watched the film.
What to do
Tu Hai Mera Sunday is one of those films that will make for a pleasant watch over the weekend, making you ponder over the futility of the rat race and might make you consider pursuing the deeper aspects of your existence. And it will entertain you. You should definitely go for this one.
