Hi Friends,
Chintu Ka Birthday is a Hindi situational drama movie on Zee5 set in Baghdad, Iraq in 2004 and is a story of a family stuck there despite being Indian citizens but came to Iraq on Nepal's passports so India didn't repatriate them during those times. The family features Vinay Pathak as Madan Tiwari (father), Tillotama Shome as Sudha Tiwari (mother), Seema Pahwa as Nani of Chintu, Vedant Chibber as Chintu who looks so cute, Bisha Chaturvedi as Lakshmi - sister of Chintu. They live in the house rented from Khalid Massou as Mahdi. All hell broke loose when the American forces enter their house and interrupts the preparations for the Chintu's birthday. The movie is written and directed by Satyanshu Singh and Devanshu Kumar. It premiered on the Zee5 platform on 5th June 2020.
Madan plays an optimistic, loving, and understanding father who believes in Do Good, Be Good to all, and showcases the same really well till the end. Despite being beaten badly by the soldiers he still keeps his calm and optimism so that Chintu has no effect and as it's his big day he wants all happiness for him. Sudha is a great partner who not only helps him in all his endeavors and the chemistry between the couple is pure love. This is one of the movies which really has soul and tears will fall from your eyes now and then. Lakshmi as the elder sister totally loves Chintu and even fights with her grandmother (Nani) to don't spoil the occasion of Chintu's 6th birthday. Chintu has been waiting for his birthday cake since his last birthday as the cake shops and other establishments were either bombed or were not operating during the crisis time in Baghdad. Nani's character is the one who blames Madan for all their problems and well played by Seema Ji.
It's a story which will remind you of the movie Life is Beautiful but in an Indian way where kid's birthday is of great importance to the family. Madan and Sudha do all efforts to make the cake at home and when they get barged in by the soldiers and reprimanded, the cake gets burnt making Lakshmi cry and at that moment, I am sure you will cry too. Chintu ka Birthday is only 83 minutes long and showcases the love and care this family has for each other. Despite getting to know they are not the culprits they don't reveal the name of the person behind the material found in their home. That is the biggest sacrifice any person can do to the locals who have also adopted them in their lives as showcased by the Mahdi Bhai who comes all the way from a far location for Chintu's birthday.
The American soldiers (played by Reginald L Barnes and Nathan Scholz) who are sent to Iraq in search of Weapons of Mass Destruction find themselves on the edge of their emotions as they get attacked continuously by the locals and their friends are losing lives in this war. This makes them trust no one and Madan becomes the latest victim of their anger as they found Mahdi hiding in the storeroom and later runs away and one of the soldiers gets shot in the neck and gets injured. This is one movie you can definitely watch with your family and it will make you love your children more than anything. All the actors have acted in the movie really well and you will be amazed to see that in a single house the whole movie is shot and a story that really touches your heart. It's a movie that will make you value your life more than ever and taking care of your family and friend's top priority if not by service due to location gaps than at least by your kind words. Go Watch It on Zee 5 Online Platform. RATING 4/5
