Hum Do Hamare Do

Good - Rao, Paresh Rawal, Ratna Shah, Manu rishi, few good comic scenes, music.

Bad - less scope for Kriti's potential, predictable plot, few stretched scenes, few forced comic scenes.

Banal n boring movie with a typical old wine in a new bottle story with a very unrealistic plot. Could have been humorous at least. Missed opportunity!

My ratings 4/10!

For what it's worth, Hum Do Hamare Do (Our Two for Us Two) is a decent family comedy drama where Bollywood again focuses on the concept of a family. There is some novelty here as the central character is an orphan trying to create a family of his own, by planning to marry the love of his life. With ample humour garnished throughout the plot, and despite the predictable end, I felt the film had its heart at the right place. Watch it.

This film deserved the theater! A wholesome light hearted family entertainer that could have easily been enjoyed by your entire family at theaters but sadly it's on OTT.

I personally found it quite enjoyable and when I find a film enjoyable, I ignore loopholes but then once the film ended, I was left with some bizzare uncomfortable questions that made me question the entire films plot only and this is what I found not right (one reason why critics are finding the film not upto the mark). Hence I reduce the stars to 7.

What is family? Is it only about sharing an identical surname? Or to live under the same roof? Or is it something that goes way beyond the definition of our conservative norms? Does it have any impediments? Any premeditated barriers set by society? And what would it all amount to if somebody decides to take a different route all of a sudden?

Abhishek Jain's 'Hum Do Hamare Do' attempts to pose a stern challenge against the very foundation of a well functioning Family. The notion itself begs a lot of valid queries and without a doubt has a significant value tied to it.

Even though not all parts of the audience would come in agreement with such fairly questionable viewpoints and it could also come off as naive and childish at times but I'm pretty sure that nobody would deny that it's an honest attempt at executing things in a slightly different manner.

Do you know what the actual problem is though? That there's not been proactive support from the Writing. Not to mention, due to the same reason, it falls short of bringing us to a tangible verdict. Dialogues barely comply with the broad spectrum of emotions and feelings this film hoped to achieve.

Performance-wise, no one outshines heavily as an individual; it rather comes across as a collective effort from the whole ensemble who did just enough to help us navigate through the entire duration.

In short, 'Hum Do Hamare Do' is serviceable only as a pastime and has just enough entertainment quotient to somewhat appease the mainstream audience. However, there's not much in it for the intellectuals though!
