S had warned me not to watch this movie when I was all by myself, but that only hyped up the movie for me. I was totally excited by the Bucket List concept, and had to see this – to know the hype behind the movie, and to get ideas to make my own Bucket List.
Man.. what a beautiful movie it was! Vinay makes a totally adorable dying-Amar-Kaul and at times wrenched my heart and welled my eyes with tears with his adorable acting!
More than Vinay, its the list he made and how he went about to make them possible was what was heart-touching! An old love, a best friend, a materialistic dream, a heart-tugging item for Mother, an attempt to get back to the estranged brother, falling in love and living life recklessly during it.. the list says it all. Something everyone should do before dying.
And I guess its the best friend and the brother thingy that got me! :(
Guess, I should make my bucket list too.. and should not wait to make it to add the point about the estranged brother! Sigh.. if only life was simpler!

seen every vinay pathak movie including 'straight', except for this.
watching senti movies needs a serious frame of mind....
'Gaining knowledge' should be at position 1 on your list. Or the last position, whichever works for you.
agree to teh T - one of the best movies I have seen of late... :)
~MaxDaVinci: Totally a different frame of mind! Sigh.. now all I can think is the items on my bucket list! :) :(
Btw, that reminds me tht I havent see Straight.
And dont you just love him in Bheja Fry? I also fell in love again with Milind Soman, though! :)
~V: No.. we are not talking about your bucket list! :P
~XH: Hey.. long time!
This is one of the good movies of 2008.
However, like most good Indian movies, it is conceptually inspired from Reiner's Bucket List(Nicholson- Freeman).
On Vinay Pathak - Have you seen Oh My God ? After Bheja Fry, he is fast becoming a stereotype with Oh My God, Dasvidaniya and Straight. Those who has watched all of them will probably agree.
Cheers!
