The scripted scenario of Delhi Mere Baap Ki kick starts with the introduction of a rich spoilt brat (Gurtej Teji ) of a leading business man from Delhi (Shakti Kapoor) who befriends a young model (Tina Rathod) and ends up raping her. He is not afraid of the consequences as he feels that his influential father will bail him out of the mess he has created with his life. But a press reporter (Komal Dhillon) who was her best friend finds the incident fishy as she thinks the reported suicide of her friend could not be true and she does a sting operation. She is helped by her friend (Pooja Thakur) in this mission. Komal Dhillon manages to trap the guy who now tries to rape her but she makes a great escape from his clutches and her honor is saved. Ultimately, the father (Shakti Kapoor) shoots his own son.
It seems like director Shashi Raaj has made Delhi Mere Baap Ki on a shoestring budget. The film has been well – scripted, based on a true incident & interestingly directed by him. Musically, the dance number is very enjoyable. A word of praise also goes for Pali & Ravi for action, Rajesh Kanoujia for cinematography & Amit Raj for editing.
Performance wise surprisingly it is Komal Dhillon who steals the limelight with an extremely sensitive enactment of a great friend who solves her dead friend’s case. Next in line Pooja Thakur is perfect in the role alloted to her. But on the other hand Tina Rathod disappoints big time and the same can be said about Gurtej Teji. While the supporting cast comprising of veterans like Shakti Kapoor, Dinesh Hingoo, Vikram Jhakar et al and debtant actors like Amritpal Kaur, Gurmail Gill, Santosh Kumari, Pallu, Aman Soni, Vicky, Anju, Ravi Sarin et al who are mostly new talents from Mike Verma’s Canam Film Institute (Chandigarh) are just about ok.
Tail Piece: At the Box Office turnstiles Delhi Mere Baap Ki has its own merits but will attract the masses mainly from the B & the C centres, especially from the North.
