Delhi Belly

Three flatmates share a cramped, rundown apartment in Delhi. Tashi is a journalist preparing for an arranged marriage, Arup is a cartoonist, and Nitin is a photographer. A delivery errand connected to Tashi's fiancée, a flight attendant, draws all three of them into a crime syndicate's dealings, and a mix-up along the way turns the friends into targets of one of India's most powerful criminal organisations. From there they have to work out how to escape a situation they never chose.

Delhi Belly was released in 2011 and is the first film directed by Abhinay Deo, followed later by Force 2 in 2016 and Savi in 2024. It was written by Akshat Verma and produced by Kiran Rao, Aamir Khan and Ronnie Screwvala under the UTV Motion Pictures and Aamir Khan Productions banners. The cast includes Imran Khan as Tashi, Kunaal Roy Kapur as Nitin, Vir Das as Arup, Shenaz Treasury as Sonia and Poorna Jagannathan as Menaka. The film runs 102 minutes.

Made on a budget of about 4 million USD, it took roughly 17 million USD worldwide, a strong return on its cost. On IMDb it holds 7.6 out of 10 from around 35,000 votes, and on TMDB 7.1 from 228 votes, indicating a solid and fairly widely held audience response to this action comedy.
