A 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.

FKS takes the emotional variance in a human being for granted, which reduces the characters played by Joshi and Irani to cropped versions of ordinary mortals. Blame it on Indian roads or traffic problems, the Ferrari doesn't quite offer the ride it is expected to. It is much slower than its speed and often relies more on its owner than its self-esteem.

Ferrari Ki Sawaari is worth a watch in the theaters, just for the love with which it is put together and the warmth with which you come out. Who would have thought we'd be getting a positive lesson in parenting from a Hindi film and that too at the hands of Sharman Joshi and Satyadeep Mishra?

Many small joys makes you happier than a bigger one. Not only you but several hearts around. Just look at the brighter side of the life. Such is Vidhu Vinod Chopra's latest offering Ferrari Ki Sawaari, directed by Rajesh Mapuskar. No grand ambition, no superstar. Many small characters with huge hearts makes you feel rich good, if you see at the brighter side ignoring the subduing tad melodrama.

Word of mouth In times of such chaos releasing in the name of cinema a film like Ferrari Ki Sawaari is the balm that can soothe the senses and calm the cynic in us.

Rating 3.5 (Good)

Ticket Meter Worth a family visit to the theatre.

Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s reputation precedes him. Yes, that reputation – the one of making good, sensible little films. With Ferrari ki Sawaari though I’m disappointed – it is a decent enough film, given that crap abounds, but isn’t a comedy or even very believable. Also since it was touted as kid-friendly, I was expecting a carefree, fun-loving romp. It isn’t that . . .
