West is West' packs fewer laughs than the earlier film but it’s engaging and thoughtful nevertheless, and benefits from strong performances across the board, especially from Om Puri who expertly reveals the vulnerability behind George’s gruff exterior.I’m going with three out of five for 'West is West'. Not a bad way to spend a lazy Sunday afternoon.

The overall sincerity of the storytelling doesn't allow us to dwell on trivial incongruities.
"West Is West" provides an endearing slice-of-life entertainment even if you haven't seen the other film.

West is West stands on its own, even though it carries forward the story of the man who struggles between his twin identities: George Khan, the Pakistani-Brit who runs a modest eatery and Jehangir Khan, the Pakistani farmer, with family, property and roots in rural Pakistan. And that's because the film carries one simple message that needs to be reiterated, the world over: East may be East, West may be West, but people are the same, despite their superficial differences. The performances are all impressive, specially by Om Puri and Ila Arun. The humour is delightful. But what finally takes your breath away is the soulful music of the film rendered by the nomadic Sufi Saeen Zahoor.Visit Site for More
