Ferrari Ki Sawaari Movie Review
Ferrari Ki Sawaari (Hindi)
Release Date:
June 15, 2012A little boy thinks of nothing but cricket. His father, Rusy, thinks of nothing but his little boy.To fulfill his son's dream of playing at Lord's cricket ground, the honest and upright Rusy performs the first small act of dishonesty in his life. He borrows a gleaming red Ferrari. Just for one hour. The only trouble - he doesn't inform its legendary owner. A wild, breathless, bumpy ride begins.
A ride that leads to a menagerie of amazing characters: a wedding planner who'll stop at nothing, a Laurel-and-Hardyesque pair of loyal attendants, a greedy politician and his reckless son, a mechanic who specializes in stolen cars...
As the Ferrari zooms through this chaotic world of street-thugs and mass-weddings, another saga unfolds-a grumpy old man and his secret wounds, and an epic rivalry that goes back fifty years. A naive Rusy must dodge bullets and bouncers for one unforgettable night, and play the role of a perfect father. Can he do it? Ferrari Ki Sawaari is a heartwarming story of small guys and their big dreams...
And how one night changes their lives forever.
So much of Ferrari Ki Sawaari is so original, so one-of-a-kind, that part of the fun of watching the film is just seeing where it will go next. While the destination of the story is fairly predictable, the journey isn’t – and it consists of exquisitely imagined detours

Read moreThis is a Ferrari that will zoom straight into your heart for its modesty. A beautiful watch!
Read moreIn the end, Ferrari ki Sawaari tries too hard. With it’s manipulative music, serendipity-dependent writing, over the top characters and it’s length, it does get a little tedious
Read moreTailor-made to elicit a few tears and a little laughter, Ferrari Ki Sawaari is worth a watch for Sirohi, Sharman and some genuinely sweet moments
Read moreA formulaic, weepy melodrama with sparks of enjoyable humour and performances
Read moreOne or two brilliant moments, a handful of good moments but they don't come together to give us a great film
Read moreNot only is the story charming, Ferrari Ki Sawaari is a well constructed film that switches between drama and comedy with ease. But the last half hour is an unnecessary drag of melodrama and plot developments
Read moreA warm, fuzzy, feel-good film that is also an affecting take on corruption, honesty and hope.
Read moreEven though the film is engaging, it feels a bit stretched
Read moreWhat works most for this endearing sugary offering is the characterization
Read moreThe writing is refreshing and the film unfolds with sheer subtlety and simplicity. The climax goes on an emotional overdrive, and at times the film is too-good-to-be-true
Read moreThis competently crafted and well-intentioned cricket-themed film steers clear of many of commercial Hindi cinema’s narrative conventions, but succumbs to some of its most retreaded clichés.
Read moreA noble film, a film that has its heart in the right place. It's well-intended and sincere and it goes about its business with incredible earnestness.
