The film somehow plucks a memorable chord and reminds you of the kind of storytelling Bond is famous for

Remember Ishaan from 'Taare Zameen Par'? Although he simply disliked his boarding school from the bottom of his heart, he not even once thought of breaking free from the campus. But the two young protagonists of 'Life Mei Hungama Hai' not only think of doing so but they almost make it. However, this film as a whole doesn’t travel that far thanks to sloppy work and a rather over-simplistic approach to filmmaking.u00a0
Adapted from Ruskin Bond’s story titled 'The Running Away', the main plot follows these two adventurous kids on their journey from the interiors of a draconian boarding school through the dangers of the outside world. They are not alike in their personality with one being academically inclined and the other more attuned to athletics. Nevertheless, both the friends are similar in their thirst to explore the world. Maybe they are too young for the task they’ve undertaken.
