Glad someone made a movie out of this experience we faced so many times...not all the time high price gives you satisfactory results

The emotion of this man only a middle class like me can relate. Others could just sympathies. 😭

His innocence can relate to me when I had my first haircut in parlour. And his genuine answer "lifebuoy" Loved this movie ❤️🥰

Each and every second of this movie is a gem , the way he smiles at the man going with pedicure and gets nothing in return , the first sip of his ice tea , when he says , lifebuoy soap yes , he getting uncomfortable when the person himself says hello to him !! Priceless 👌👌👌👌👌

Ive done countless high profile projects and have had clients related to film making, production and more. This is by far one of the best short films I have seen being made in India. Perfect combination of humor, good cinematography and amazing background score! But true to it's word should be taken as a joke, it also somehow uplifts a hidden fact in the Beauty and Grooming sector in India. All these 'Salons & Spas' in the country claim to have professionals but none of them are. The haircuts given are not always the best, even from the outlet of Toni & Guy. When I travelled to Australia and the Eruopean continent, most salon and expert barbers were shocked to know Indian Salons use 'Volume Scissors' to it's max effect and have most of the guys look the same with front driven sides and sort of spiked fronts. Its a rip off here!! No pun to the short film. Its simply OUTSTANDING !

I really feed sad about this short movie and don't know why people are finding it hilarious! The movie shows how an ordinary common man can't fit in this dominating world. Yes it is the reality. And I believe most of us must have faced it in some point of our lives.

Holy shit this is one the best short film I've ever watched. Totally in love with the director/writer ❤️

It reminded me my first time visit to a 5 star restaurant. After the food, they gave us lemon bowl & I thought it's lemon juice but fortunately my friend put his hand in it and I realised why it is so!

"Laut ke Pappu ghar ko aaye" It shows return towards originality after trying something larger than one's life. Happens with everyone at some point of time. Beautifully shown!

This how a short film is supposed to be - fun, short, ironic. Perfect

I'm running out of words... I was searching for something like this on KZfaq and I'm glad that I watched this film. ♥

It would have been a perfect ending if that street salon would have charged 50 ₹ for haircut.. 😝

This is called short film! Small story but big meaning! Nice acting! I loved the background song.it suited perfectly! 10/10 fr this movie☺☺

The man's expressions are hilarious. 😂😂😂

Giving 950/- Rs is not the concern, but even after getting the haircut it looks the same which is annoying.

This reminds me of a time when I was 14 and went to buy the Domino's Pizza for the first time. For a lower middle class family specially in late 90s and early 00s, pizza is considered as a rich people's food. So I was very excited for having a taste of it. When I saw the menu, the only thing I could afford is the one with the lowest price which is just a bread with some oragano sprinkled on it without any toppings(yes, not even onion or capsicum or even cheese). I ended up ordering that. On the top of that, the Dominos' guy lured me into buying extra half litre Pepsi. That total cost us around 175/- which was a big deal for us. My mom got furious when I brought that peice of bread at home. Our family of 4 literally ate just a slice of that useless pizza. Uske baad humne kasam khaayi ke kabhi Dominos ka pizza nhi khaayenge..😭

He told I tea and they bought ice tea 😂😂

reception girl talked to an hindi customer in english and ordered his tea in hindi.... hahahaha....

This movie shows that how consumerism is increasing in our society and country and also how much we have forgotten our own culture and shifting towards western culture. Really appreciable movie🙌🏻

I use lifeboy too. Sometimes even use soaps made for cloths as well. I have a good thick hair 😍😍😍

Rs.800 for that silly buzz cut, Rs.150 in taxes? Gosh, they looted him. That said, very well done! It was funny, yet sad at the same time. The hero was just perfect for the role. Great direction! Thanks.

That man is such as a good actor.

That look from the guard... feeling of togetherness

This happens with fancy restaurants too. All hype and no substance. Brilliant film. Really love the quality content humaramovie puts out. Relatable AF. Keep up the good work, guys.

man !!!, that subtle expression of the janitor at 7:17 summarizes the whole short film !! priceless expression !!

10/10 for the song.. 9/10 for the concept 10/10 for the acting

the simple expectation of a middle-class man....corporate tricks.....dream becomes dust in a minute. The exact portrayal of middle-class people who stuck between need and extravagance.

This is my favourite short film. I keep coming back . Kawa chala hans ki chal XD. Also the guy playing watchman did his part so well without even saying a few words. XD

Hahaha...this is really a nice depiction of what goes through a mind of a layman when he goes to posh hair cutting salon. Well, I used to cut my hair for 400 Rs but now I go to an ordinary salon who only charges 40 Rs and is more or less the same in cutting quality. Its also a matter of satisfaction that Im not wasting my hard earned cash for a stupid hair cut.

I have spent thousands on my haircut and shaving...literally wasting my money in these expensive saloons...But now i spend just 120 on haircut and trimming...its pretty cool..

The moral of the story: It is better to go small shop than to go hi-fi butyparlour ....

Awwww i love this guy😊😊😊 he's very honest ❤️❤️❤️🙏

seriously it happens to all big salon ...they just touch the hair and say ho gaya

After watching Jaby interview with Sumeet...I came here... but later on I realized I have already seen this short film long time back :)

This movie is gem.. His expressions r just amazing..

The background music was so nice. I just love it

I cant remember the last time I laughed so hard(the part when he shouts). Amazing work.

which shampoo "lifeboy" 😂😂 its really a genuine answer😂😂

1:14 she's is chintu's mom from whitehat jr ad 😂

Honestly, his expression make me laugh throughout the video 😄👍🏻

That's how I felt when I went to Subway for the first time...

One of the best short movie I have seen. I send link of this video to every friend who feels looted after haircut

And that's why I cut my own hair, and I'm a pro at this now. Saving 950₹ for each cut 😎

Who is here after watching Aleena’s shorts??

That scene where he screams out internally about the prices is ME AF.

Rich people and Literate people are two different things..

That lady: You are looking different. That guy: Yes different.

Amazing piece of art The man is so innocent and lovely 🤩🤩

Gosh, feels like exactly my story. a day before my wedding i went to this nice salon close to my wife's place. Conversations were exactly the same. The guy shampooed my hair, talked in sweet manner and in the name of haircut, hardly used his pair of scissors. I left after 45 minutes wondering if I got a haircut at all. It wasn't 950 rs though, only 120 rs. I walked out, entered a small salon nearby and got a great haircut+shave+scrub in 250 rs. :-D .

So glad someone made this video, please make one on posh restaurants also.... and the ordinary ones....

I saw it for the second time , and still I loved it.....

Who got a sudden recommendation after 7 years ie in 2021??? But I loved it ❤️❤️❤️❤️

This is ironically hilarious..and the true face of what's happening around us!

who came here after reading sumeet vyas in the title? or is it just me? #fangirling😂😂

Last line was awesome - SIR HAIR CUT🤣🤣🤣Use kya pata pura ka pura admi kat gaya ab puchra sir.....😂😂

I like this film every time I watch it! It's brilliant!!!

As a man, there is absolutely no reason to go for any of these expensive salons. Just a simple Rs.50 haircut is more than enough, even for shah rukh khan. There is nothing complicated with men's hair that it requires Rs.800.

A wonderfully written, directed and acted comedy short film . Great work by Anand , Sumeet , Shivani and Imran Rasheed .

A person belongs to middle class family should always stay within the price limitation.

Wonderful and heart touching film written by writer ...based on real life of a middle class man , generally faces such incidents in day to day life

The cost of a haircut in an average saloon in Chennai is about Rs 30. You can add another zero to it if you want to go to an upmarket saloon. But most people are content with the quality of work done for Rs 30. Sensible people would probably avoid going to such upmarket saloons unless they are keen on showing to the whole society where they stand on the social ladder.

I feel so bad for that guy!!! Literally robbed him of 950 bucks

Truuee that.. Kudos to team which exposed the reality of salons dark side.. Common people of us dream of coming out as stars but what we end up is only seeing ourselves in the decorated mirror..

The ways he has acted with the astonishingly!! Amazing

That's what I called a unique concept with great performances I love it...

This is genius! Came here after watching from Jaby.

Even I use to get tensed before entering into Starbucks but Kamini aisi dost mili ke she can do anything 😂

This film is a very important lesson in life. To appreciate the things we have and not to think the grass is always greener on the other side. I have experienced this many times. Bought expensive things just to look classy only to not like them or use them after. But the humble things i got would last me and serve me forever. Another example is, during my college years i would go to expensive cafes but nothing would match the humble chai wala's tea at the bus depot. It was really a lesson in life. Although something in us will forever love gaining more and more

Same feeling when had food in McDonalds. After having that non spicy shit, went to near by store and had Somosa with Mirchi! LOL!

this is the bitter truth....I agree..... the desi barber shop is the best........

The acting of the groom!!!! Hands down!

Pura chuna lag geya. Awesome song. 😘😘😘😘😘😘😘

hahaha...nice one...very good acting and the best face expressions by man...:)

Did not want to become "Kauva chale hans ki chaal" type fool. I pay 50 bucks for haircut and save 900 for charity.

Classic And One of few best short comedy...😅🤣😂💪

Best short movie with the main protagonist playing driver kind of character to the T👍like his innocence very much towards everything...great job by every actor starting with Kunal khemu😊

I came here while I was on KZfaq .. nobody cares from where u came just watch the damn video

The guy wearing shades at the start is Kunal Khemu right?

You are brilliant...kiya video hai..jitni tarif ke jaey kam hai...

What a cute story which is really true actually. He looks so innocent 😭. Really loved it

i can thumbs up 100 times not jus for scrip but the way they acted it is so real to see them!

All middle classed people (including me) commenting here. LOL

Super flash back of my many new experiences in my childhood days

I am glad ki kisine itna achha sochke vdo bnaya...hats off👏

It is one of those few movies where a very thin line separates literal and contextual interpretation by the audience... While the movie handles and shells out the message in an apt and professional manner, it will have its share of audience who will misinterpret and take it in the, I'm afraid, wrong fashion, which is to say will develop their share of apprehension and doubt about 'The Salons'... I loved the movie though... Very well made... The background music is surprisingly good for a short offering... Excellent work... Nicely written... Cinematography and screenplay are upto the mark and everything else is very well executed too!

Sumeet Vyas one of the finest actors to emerge from web world as an icon and making slowly into movies, though I wish to see his acting brilliance in more movies , same time I feel he should entertain us with more and more series like Permanent roommate, TVF Tripling ....what an actor...who can forget Mikesh

4:23 mirzapur ki CM ki entry ... LOL.... XD

It gives us a great lesson. It is related with a middle class family who lives there life in brattely condition and also a Value of money we should take lesson from it. A great movie. Love it

Oho Oho Ohooooo!!!! Whatttttta Concept! Wonderful script, cinematography....& Music! "GET Ur Wife Also" Hahahahahaha

OMG....his reactions were so funny..........and when he shouts ...........omg......

I watched this on FB now original I'm watching it!!!

Hats off for choosing unique concept...... It's funny at the same time thought provoking

who came after seeing jaby and sumeet conversation???

That guy is me when ever I stand in front of Balleza...

Lifebuoy - ultimate!!! He fits into character so well 👌🏼👌🏼

Hindi should be respected more than English in India

Be Simple, enjoy simple life.........its worth every moment

great message! there's no reason to be proud of yourself if you spend thousands of rupees getting hair cuts... at the end of the day, you still look like a gaddha

I too have the same reaction looking at these so called 'UNISEX' Salons Waste of time and money

This short film gives a big message; 1) don't get attracted to the fancy things or something that is shining from outside..all tht shines is not gold. There is no harm in being little desi or old school. 2) everyone has a different kind of life & financial status, upbringing etc, don't try to copy lifestyle of others. Live in REALITY. REALITY is if a rich person is spending 1000/-rs a day it's nothing for him..but for a poor person it's a big thing..he cud have used tht 1000rs in so many other ways to make him happy. He was not even getting respect at this salon. He ended up being frustrated. That's the reality.
