Vijesh K Here comes a refreshing film in midst of torturous films like Zila Ghaziabad, Race 2, Himmatwala, etc. If you like watching good films and not to watch good looking stars on the screen then you would like this film. The plot is simple and sometimes illogical in some parts but still manages to maintain the audience interest. The actors are not outstanding but manage to do their part. Watch the film for - Humor, Saqib Saleem and Punjabi wedding fun.I would suggest that watch this without great expectations and you would love it.

Ketan Gupta 20th Centuary is quickly evolving as promising decade with so many upcoming directors whose films are made on shoe-string budget yet is light-heart entertainer. Mere Dad ki Maruti falls into this category. Beautifully shot in the city of Chandigarh imbibed by Punjabi culture, Mere Dad ki Maruti delivers wholesome fun-filled ride with routine song-dance.Sameer wants to impress his girlfriend and takes her out for a joyride in the brand new car, supposed to be gifted his brother-in-law by his father Tej. In the nick of time , he accidentally looses the car. Sameer must eventually discover the vehicle before his father blast him.New time director , Ashima Chibber does a fine job in creating a hell of a ride as Sameer finds different ways to save himself. This film will be more enjoyable if you are from North India as you can relate well with the culture and language. Screenplay will make sure you sit tight throughout the film and laugh until you cry out. Editing could have been further trimmed by cutting down unnecessary songs. Cinematography is excellent. Dialogues are funny though sometimes difficult to understand ( sometimes hardcore Punjabi). Performances by Saqeeb Salim and Ram Kapoor drives the whole film. Their chemistry as father son is amazing and will surely go down well with audience. The actor who played friend of Sameer was also impressive.Overall , very likable and feel-good entertainer. Must watch . Good 3/5

Tejas Nair The movie is more than what the poster or the title suggests. Mere Dad Ki Maruti is a Punjabi styled, comedy drama which focuses on comedy of errors rather than logical out-mapping.Lead character is still raw & needs to draw more out of himself if he wants to stay in Bollywood. The VJ turned actor Rhea over-acted and shows how cuties fail to impress in reel. But her hotness and panache compensates for it. Ram Kapoor seems to have continued his role of 'Student Of The Year,' while the supporting cast is average. Ravi Kisan was wasted.Storyline is pretty straightforward and after the interval, everything goes the usual predictable way but thank God, there is absence of cheap humor. If you carry your logical thinking for the sequences, then you may turn disappointed as the romance factor truly hits the divider with vague impact on the story as a whole. Performances are novice while the soundtrack truly boasts of a Punjabi dash. That sounded good. Songs are repetitive and plagiarized giving much emphasis to gaudy melodies...BOTTOM LINE: The climax is truly the best scene of this movie. Although it is all predictable, but certain things made me laugh and I felt good. One time watch! But, if you hate Punjabi big fat weddings and drama related to it, then you should ignore this nice try.Can be watched with a typical Indian family? YESLanguage: No | Sex, Nudity or Foreplay: No | Alcohol: Mediocre | Violence: No | Vulgarity: No

Aisha Yaqub Sure, some people might not like it. Since, from the posters and promo, it does not really tell a person what the movie is really about. It just says Mere Dad Ki Maruti. (My dad's Maruti car). You don't get an idea about what the movie is going to be about. Similarly, when I had seen the poster, I wasn't really moved by it, to go see the film. I went because of Ram Kapoor. He is a talented veteran actor and one of my favourites.I wanted to watch Jolly LLB instead of MDKM, but went for it. I am so glad I did. Every penny's worth, this movie. I might have liked it even more, because I am a Punjabi and I could relate to the whole film so much. Loved the wedding background to the film's story, loved the cast, loved the acting, loved the dialogues. I am so glad, it was a CLEAN, FUN, FAMILY ENTERTAINER. We do need those once in a while to watch. Liked that there wasn't any kisses or anything, or cheap dialogues, unlike other comedy films that come out which rely on cheap slapstick humour to do well and gain audience's attention.It was light-hearted fun and boy did it entertain. I won't hesitate to go again and watch it. I even suggested this film to everyone I know. It is a must watch, at least once. If you are a Punjabi, you just have to watch it. The whole cinema was laughing and through out the film, people were laughing. The film talks about how youngsters make mistakes and how to get over that mistake, we grow up in the process. It is a good comedy with a message attached. Do not expect too much from this film, but it will entertain you.The best part about the film, is the soundtrack. THIS IS ONE FILM WHICH HAS AMAZING SONGS. All of the songs in the film rock. From Haay, Mai Senti Hoon, to Hip Hip Huraah (the really catchy item song) - to even the title track. It is a rocking soundtrack, which is deffo car playable material.
