What Worked:

The film is nicely portrayed by our two protagonists played by Lara and Vinay. Their chemistry is great and the comedy is bearable.

What Didn't:

The second hour falters in the comedy department and the movie begins to slow down. Sequences also become irrelevant and boring. Considering that the movie is set on the road, there are no beautiful shots that had us in awe.

Slated or Rated:

Chalo Dilli is an average movie with a couple good characters and jokes. However, the movie makes no big impression on the audience and we wouldn't suggest you rush out and catch this flick.

Rating:

3/5 Stars
