BomanIrani ’s Well Done Abb film received favourable response from top critics in India. It received 6.5/10 at ReviewGang. Anupama Chopra of NDTV writes – “The end result is that Well Done Abba is heart-felt and intermittently funny”, while Nikhat Khazmi of times of India writes “The film is a sheer delight, with the events unfolding in a breezy, comic vein which keeps the ribs relentlessly tickling” watchWellDoneAbbaonline or WellDoneAbbawatWell Done Abba, earlier titled Abba Ka Kuan, also stars Sonali Kulkarni, Ravi Kishan, Ila Arun, Salim Ghouse, Rajit Kapoor, Yashpal Sharma, Ravi Jhankal and Rahul Singh. The film is inspired by two short stories - Narsaiyyan Ki Bavdi by Jeelani Bano and Phulwa Ka Pul by Sanjeev.
The film has been narrated in a comic and ironic vein. It is an engaging story of Armaan Ali (Boman Irani), a driver working for a Senior Executive in Mumbai, who goes on leave. He wants to find a match for his teenage daughter Muskaan (Minissha Lamba), who stays with his brother Rehman Ali (Boman) and his wife Salma (Ila Arun). When Armaan returns to work after 3 months his young employer wants to sack him. But Armaan Ali has a story to tell.
The story he tells is a humorous and often hilarious account of the events and happenings that delayed him from returning after a month. He avails a government scheme to dig a well in his agricultural patch. Things spiral out of control so much so that the Government is about to collapse! The question remains, how true is this compelling story!
The film is a political satire that veers from the farcical to the often witty and sharp but largely ironic comedy without losing sight of its central theme that deals with the many development projects that the government has initiated which frequently get hijacked by systemic corruption. Among the high points of the film are the brilliant performances of the actors and the pulsating, lyrical and melodious songs composed by Shantanu Moitra, who is back after scoring a hit soundtrack for blockbuster film 3 Idiots, but with a different style in this film. Lyrics are penned by Swanand Kirkire, Ila Arun and Ashok Mishra.chonline and give your rate to this film.
