Apr 16, 2021 One day this film was coming on TV. I had nothing better to do and since it had just started and I accidentally. I had heard this movie talks about a certain topic that the society treats as a taboo, and that too an innuedo one. So I was expecting tons of cheap humour that the illiterate audience will laugh over. But it was the other way round. The illiterate audience will be the only one who will not like it. I'm gonna keep it spoiler free: Vicky Donor is a story about a genetically perfect man who has a lot of money but no job. His father is dead, his mother has a small salon and his grandmother just supports whatever he does. A doctor who runs a sperm clinic learns about him and keeps trying to convince him about donating sperms to him in return for a lot of money. In the beginning he refuses but when the doctor keeps stalking him, he finally agrees. And once he gets the money, he decides to donate sperm as frequently as possible. This way he earns a lot, but he can't tell anyone about what he does. Later he marries a woman he loves, but she learns about what he does and leaves him. This film raises questions about the moral ethics that society has created over something that many people really need. Due to the poor sex education that we receive, we are led into believing that sperm bad, sex bad, masturbating bad, and so anyone who does any of this is evil. We don't realise our own scripture, Kamasutra, tells us the importance of all this. And this film was made back in 2012, when these topics was an even bigger taboo than what it is today. In my opinion this film is one of the landmarks which pioneered the society into being more acceptable towards this topic. Another topic that this film raises is that of greed. Vicky clearly didn't want to donate sperms because he thought it is morally wrong to do so. But once he receives the payment, he starts doing it more and more, to the point where it becomes practically a habit. He was not doing it for any opinions, ethics or morals. He was only doing it for the money, even though he had surplus of it. This decision leads to his broken marriage, which is later fixed only after the morals are questioned. The acting of every character is incredible. The comedy scenes are great. I really love the part where Vicky and Ashima describe each other to their parents is something you must look forward to if you haven't watched it. The way they highlight the stereotypes Punjabis and Bengalis believe about each other is hilarious. Also Dr. Chaddha's obsession with sperm is a running joke. He often talks in metaphors of sperm. He also holds a model sperm in his hand whenever he talks. Vicky Donor is one of Bollywood's most underrated films, especially of the early 2010's when films like Delhi Belly and Dev D were being made. I'd put this also in the same category. Ayushmann Khurrana showed with this film that he's here to stay. And I really hope he does. See more

Mar 17, 2020 Most likely one of the first films about sperm donation, 'Vicky Donor' works not only because it quirkily combines merth and messaging in a comical, quirky and very satisfying way, this film is a triumph because despite overtly preaching, Shoojit Sircar delivers a busy, lively crowd-pleaser that doesn't do away with broad-strokes storytelling. But the film's principle strength which drives it and makes us forget most of the film's problems is Ayushman Khurana's quintessential, flawed Indian Delhi launda Vicky, and the charm the debut actor delivers. You might not call his performance the best of the year, but he's here to live and shine, and the film paves a very original way for him. So 'Vicky Donor' is not a perfect drama, but it is so bold as a Bollywood comedy and it's textures are too refreshing to be easily dismissed. It's not far, and it's fun and relatable! See more

yash b @yashbansal Jan 28, 2019 "Vicky Donor" is an okay romantic comedy with a good central message. I thought the movie had a strong start and good performances all around. The movie became much slower paced in its second half. I found myself losing interest here and there near the end because at a point it became pretty repetitive. However, I thought the ending of the movie was handled well and I think it made the whole experience fine for a one time watch. This movie is a solid feel-good story even if it doesn't rank among the best in the genre. See more
