All 6 reviews

Hindi movie with a sense of humour.

It’s the kind of movie in which cops investigate missing toasters and broken flowerpots, bland-looking apartments are vice dens, and outwardly appearance is no guarantee of good behaviour. The crisp premise is overstretched but the buffoonery is consistent.

It feels like a film that had all the right ingredients but forgot the recipe.

For a film like this to work, you need zippy writing, full of smart gags. In this Rajkummar Rao-Sanya Malhotra-starrer, so little lands that it’s deeply depressing: you are left scraping off burnt toast.

Toaster marks a confident debut for director Vivek Daschaudhary and producers Patralekhaa and Rao. It is a light-hearted comedy that pokes good-natured fun at people who are stingy with their money without ever hitting below the belt.

Toaster had the potential to be a quirky, crazy ride but it gets derailed quite soon. Great premise, great actors, it gets two ingredients correct but the screenplay lacks spice.
