REVIEW: Thodi Life Thoda Magic

Now that the verdict on Yash Raj's Thoda Pyaar, Thoda Magic is out (READ REVIEW), Saahil Chadha's film Thodi Life Thoda Magic's chances of garnering viewership have increased. It's another thing that the latter is not releasing in multiplexes.

The movie begins with a war scene – with a war photographer, whom we could figure out was Jackie Shroff, clicking away. Sounds of bombs exploding and cut to a curio shop, where a regular supplier comes with some knick-knacks to sell. A carpenter in the shop recognises a couple of things as belonging to one 'MK'.

Cut to a TV channel's office, with people running helter-skelter as this 'MK' is missing. Enter the angel, MK (Jackie Shroff) wandering about, being nice to people on the street…leading to a flashback.

Music Review: Thodi Life Thoda Magic

Ashima (Anita Raj) and Aditya Singhania (Parmeet Sethi) run a production house. The couple has made a short film on Mumbai and try to market it to Roshan Merchant (Arbaaz Khan), the CEO of TVi channel. Roshan tells him to add a tinge of 'romance' to the product, taking a cue from his girlfriend-cum-colleague, Naina (Meera Vasudevan).

Meanwhile, MK keeps popping up every few frames, on the streets, playing with kids and giving them gifts from his jhola, much like Santa Claus.
