Bareilly Ki Barfi has enough flavour to keep you going. Director Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari keeps it frothy and light. I exited the theatre hoping that she'll give Pritam Vidrohi his own film.

Rao sweetens the pot, and makes up for the rest of it. Almost.

It's the parents, along with a host of other characters around the lead protagnists, who inject life into BKB.

A largely inoffensive, mildly diverting small-town romance that generally hits the right buttons thanks primarily to a crisp and lively screenplay, earthy dialogues and effortless acting by a fine cast.
