Plan A Plan B

Plan A Plan B is a love story involving Nirali (Tamannaah) a matchmaker battling her own tragic past & Kosty (Riteish), a divorce lawyer too scared to end his own marriage. This is also the kind of film where Tamannaah acts to be a bad dancer & Riteish a best dancer. A simple done to death story of two completely opposite individuals with similar problems, finding each another, after a lot of squabble.

It definitely could have worked better if there was bit more magic in the chemistry between the two. The dialogues many a times fell flat & the film remained one toned. Being predictable was never it's problem, it just wasn't entertaining enough even with that less runtime. All those compatibility tests like pheromone test, KEOT etc.. just added onto the runtime & Poonam Dhillon as the mom was in a way wasted.

'Ameer logon ki ameeron wali problems' is the most apt review anyone can give this movie.

There was so much potential this movie had for a good drama, but everything was wasted. The dialogues were cringe, there was no comedy, and you wouldn't feel any connection or sympathy with any character. The ending was nonsensical and completely predictable.

There was just nothing in here except frame after frame of idiocy. All the other characters except the leads (which were unidimensional) appeared to be idiots without an iota of brain cells. All in all, a pathetic movie with no story. If Bollywood does not come out of its 'love' obsession in every story, it will be facing a serious problem. This was supposed to be a light movie, which it is, but there is just nothing worth watching in it. Woke garbage which a woke director who I think is not a human at all (might be a donkey) is trying to shove down audience's throats.

Consider yourself warned!

The Movie is chill and romantic. There is good Spend over the weekend watching this movie. Particularly who likes Romantic movies, they should go for it.

The best part of director Shashanka Ghosh's 'Plan A Plan B' is the vibe that these protagonists share.

Riteish Deshmukh is at his best form portraying the cynical character Kosty in measured tones. Even when he and his behaviour seem strange, it's easy to root for him and his comedic timing. Tamannaah Bhatia successfully brings the vulnerability and fierceness of Nirali to the fore. Their mutual hatred adds curiosity to their characters. But what we don't see is the lead couple's crackling chemistry. Individually, they do shine in their respective acts, but nothing feels natural when they develop feelings for each other.

This movie been named as plan A plan B but to tell you here there are no plans

The movie starts with tamannaah as match maker in a rickshaw for some last minute goof up and there after comes Riteish as a divorce lawyer in a court room and thus the movie starts with no great plans ahead simply they both are fighting on their thoughts

A silly simple love story has been shown without any emotions and dull songs..a lot of humour was expected as Riteish and Khusha was there but I kept waiting and the movie ended on no great note

Only good in the movie was the colours and aesthetics which made the movie looked fresh.

Plan A Plan B (2022) : Movie Review -

Shashanka Ghosh's Plan A Plan B brings together Riteish Deshmukh and Tamanna Bhatia as a lead pair for the first time on screen. Rom-Com is one of the most loved and simplest genres for Bollywood filmmakers, but sadly, we have seen almost every theory that could have existed in this romantic comedy world. Ghosh's comedy has a fresh pair, a fresh subject, and a fresh feel to it, but lacks the fresh storytelling. The film plays so safe that it forgets to add something of its own and rather makes you feel a little bored. However, it never falls too deep and never becomes a headache, so you at least pass the time with a relaxed smile on your face.

Kosty Chougule (Riteish Deshmukh) is a family lawyer, oops, a divorce lawyer, and an expert one, who is a happy dividing couple as per their own wishes. Nirali (Tamannaah Bhatia) is a matchmaker who runs a matrimonial service and, by chance, has her office next to Kosty. These two often fight with each other, not just because their professions are crossed, but also because their thoughts on love, marriage, and relationships differ. After a while, they both start getting along together as they learn several facts about themselves and the issues they had with their personal relationships. As you can guess, there is a fight, there is love, then there is a little misunderstanding, and then you have a happy ending.

Written by Rajat Arora, Plan A Plan B has plan A working right, but doesn't have any plan B to survive the regular typicality. The screenplay still has enough engaging moments to keep you interested in the film, and it is not that long either. For about 105 minutes, there were no such Dell moments except for a few songs. As we know, relationships are a very complicated subject and everyone has a different thought process for it, so what is there to give to different sets of minds with one story? That's a big challenge and almost an impossible job. Still, Arora has done a fairly decent job. Plan A Plan B may look rough while it wants to become tough, which didn't happen.

The performance of Riteish Deshmukh is pleasant. It's a good break for him as he plays a very vibrant guy, with his own intensity, and then there is this mix of romance and comedy in the film's genre. When was the last time we saw him in a straight-up rom-com (aside from those adult comedies)? Tamannaah Bhatia is such a pleasure to the eyes that have got bored watching other scenery. She looks stunning and plays a very relatable role, in contrast to anything cheap and downmarket she did in Babli Bouncer. Watch out for her facial expressions and romantic scenes with Riteish, and do not miss the intimate dance. In the supporting roles, Kusha Kapila, Poonam Dhillon, Bidita Bag, Prithviraj Sarnaik, Heli Vyas, and Raghav Agarwal are okay to decent.

Plan A Plan B had a scope for good music because it fell into the romantic comedy genre, which is very suitable for it. But the music isn't really that exciting and does not create any romantic vibes, even with those video songs. Watching Riteish dance his heart out and Tamannaah add glam appeal may save the dance numbers for you, but still, it has been done much better. The technical aspects, such as background score, cinematography, and editing, are fine. Director Shashanka Ghosh's storytelling lacks crispness and new flavours. However, Plan A Plan B isn't a big let down. It has some good moments that will entertain you, and some that might just teach you some lessons about relationships (if you are having any with your partner). Overall, a decent, light-hearted watch for Netflix viewers who often get to watch dark projects only.

RATING - 5/10*
