Yes it’s
different. Once ditched in love, distrusts men as a whole, refuses to accept
marriage as an institution, meets the man who ditched earlier and who wants to make
things work again, should end in a happy married life, right? The Director,
Abhishek Dogra thinks otherwise.
It’s not
always necessary to complete the story saying the prince and princess lived
together ever happily. The princess prefers to go back to doing what she is
good at and rejects the institution of marriage altogether. In a country where
marriage is a national obsession, any attempt to reject it is nothing less than
rebellion. Abhishek doesn’t reject the institution of marriage altogether but
he simply tries to say that while many people would tread a set path but there
could be few who would have the balls to follow their conscience and do
whatever they are good at. This makes the movie an interesting watch.
This light
hearted comedy hits you at the right place. The movie takes a deep dive into
marriages in North India, the razzmatazz around it with focus on a Haryanvi
family and a Punjabi family. Raj Kumar Rao, the Haryanvi lad is more than
better in his character, has picked up the Haryanvi accent extremely well and
gives a perfect start to the movie.
Varun Sharma
the next bakra has done an extremely fantastic job. This Mama’s boy who is also
in love with Dolly gives the movie those regular comedy shots. Archana Puran
Singh who plays his mom adds quite a lot of flavor in her capacity as a mom and
as a Saas. Pulkit Samrat, a clone of Chulbul Pandey is a weak link though.
The looteri dulhan
aka Sonam Kapoor has come a long way indeed. The pretty diva plays the looteri dulhan
well, though at times you feel that she is too good to be a looteri. No wonder
even in the movie the bakras who seem to have been duped by her, still seem to
be madly in love with her. This makes Dolly a more than perfect character in
the movie. Arbaaz Khan seems to have given her a free hand for her wardrobe in
the movie. No wonder the wardrobe that she flaunts is another good reason to
watch this movie
A good script,
an even better climax and the extraordinary performances by almost everyone
make this movie a perfect watch. An item song by Malaika Arora is Arbaaz Khan’s
signature in all movies from his production house, Needless to say Malaika is
awesome. Dadi’s monologue “Ladki de di sab kuch de diya” and Varun Sharma’s one liner “Agar ek baar Dolly de deti to dil me kuch malaal na reh jata” will make
you roll on the floor laughing indeed.
Full credit
goes to to Abshikek Dogra and the team for this fantastic movie. Sonam needs to
improve on her dialogue delivery and voice modulation for sure. She comes out
with the same submissive, feminine pitch irrespective of the character or the
sequence. Overall this hundred minute comedy is worth your time and money.
