r balki try to tell you a story that have be earlier tell by ram gopal verma in nishabd in a sensuous way . this time it be mixed with mature humor . amitabh bachchan be a chef and own an indian cuisine in london . he be very dominating and arrogant and respect his job just like any other job . accord to him and cooking be an art . still can not make hyderabadi biryani properly . enter tabu who send her the proper hyderabadi biryani make by her and they soon start meet up and finally fall in love with each other amitabh be 65 and tabu be 35 . no probs . but one hitch . tabu father paresh rawal . the couple decide to meet the father for the approval of their marriage . but amitabh realizes that tabu father be much young to him . and the complication begin performance wise all three actor be brilliant . the script of the film be very tight and interesting . the dialogue of the film be catchy . but somewhere you feel that your stomach be not properly fill . the comedy be sometimes not properly understood . the film also try to go lengthy at some part . musically nothing much to sing about except the title track . the camera work be good . director r balki could have give much well from this script . but in the second half he himself look confuse . the satyagrah scene of the father look irritating . but the line speak by amitabh bachchan during that scene be clap worthy . on the whole and cheeni kum need to have more sugar .
