Nearly all the best dialogues are spoken by Ali.
Like they say, this happens only in our desi cinema.Ali’s neighbour, Kishan Lal (Asif Basra), a caddy by profession, takes the budding talent under this tutelage and hones Ali’s talent. Even in a Utopian state, it is hard to digest street children running amuck golf greens. Watch it for Nawaz.ĭirector Sohail Khan, who shares writing credits too, takes a lot of cinematic liberties. The bit in the story about getting sport mixed with the anti-social elements is banal, but the film doesn’t take itself too seriously.
Also, you know at the start that this Ali is as strong as Mohammad Ali and will win all tournaments. While the first hour of this film is time pass, the second half loses steam because of its repetitive narrative style. His attempt at song and dance and self-deprecating humour is to be applauded. What’s more, he even gets a girl Megha (Amy Jackson) to romance. The soul and the star of the film is Nawazuddin, who can do no wrong – whether he is happy, sad, freaky or straight, he’s a superstar in his own right. The treatment is light-hearted, the dialogue pedestrian but very funny in parts and the film has its heart in the Bollywood space meaning, often the ridiculous does better than the sublime. Predictably, he snatches a win from a five-time champion.įreaky Ali, inspired by Adam Sandler’s Happy Gilmore, is a sweet film. From here, the sadak chhaap turns professional golfer. Furthermore, on one of his misadventures to a golf field to extort money from a businessman, Ali discovers his own putting skills. Ali’s world turns topsy-turvy when he discovers that he can hit sixers better than Chris Gayle and Virat Kohli.
