‘Mard Ko Dard Nahi Hota’ Mid-Ticket Review: The first half is an extremely intelligent laugh riot

The first half of ‘Mard Ko Dard Nahi Hota’ is an extremely intelligent laugh riot. Surya (Abhimanyu Dassani) is born with a curse – he can feel no pain. His maternal grandfather (Mahesh Manjrekar) serves him a healthy diet of action films, and Surya dreams of becoming a 100 man fighter or Karate man.

What makes this movie so engrossing is the smooth way in which the story is told. Slow motion action scenes, witty voice-overs and a protagonist with unique problems – all of this make the film something that you’ve never watched before. Even though the concept may seem a little weird on paper, it’s a pretty accessible film that will floor you with its creativity.

Abhimanyu gives in a strong performance, but you sometimes feel that this movie might have performed better at the box office with a known face. Still, it’s one of the most promising debuts in recent years without a doubt. We’re surely looking forward to the second half of the film.
