Badhaai Do

This is one of the better groundbreaking LGBTQ movies to come out of India, a country still hobbled by strict cultural mores and taboos. It starts off slowly and with all the hallmarks of a French Farce that discourages the viewer from taking it seriously. However, as it develops, the concept takes shape and the message becomes clearer. Unfortunately, the drama piece becomes overshadowed by weak attempts at comedy which does not translate well, and the overuse of songs and silly noises in the soundtrack proves distracting. The on-screen relationships do not come across as real, but this is to avoid censorship one would imagine. The movie is well acted and for the most part, the characters are believable. Overall, it is entertaining and has just the right amount of pathos towards the end.

The lead actors in this movie are Rajkumar Rao and Bhumi Pednekar are considered as the best natural actors of bollywood, needs no comment on their acting. They always give their best and are always best. Anotherfemale actor in lead role is Chum Darang from Arunachal Pradesh has acted very well. Though not a very big role but her impact is very strong. The trailer of the movie already revealed that it is about LGBT community...but it is presented in the movie in a very fresh and new way. It has a message for everyone that we should understand and respect the LGBT community. We should understand that this is very natural and should be accepted by our society. This movie is also about "lavender marriage"...where two homosexual people agree to marry each other so that they can live in society peacefully. Overall a very good movie with very strong message for all. The only drawback is that it is stretched a little otherwise its a complete entertainer with so many good comedy timings.

Badhaai Do is a lovely film that breaks the stereotypes in a beautiful heartwarming way. It is sweet, funny and sensitive all at once. Rajkummar Rao and Bhumi Pednekar are such a delight to watch. Both the actors show their prowess yet again. Watch out for the scene where Rajkummar breaks down. It is one of the finest moments in cinema in recent times. Amit Trivedi delivers some gorgeous tunes.

This is an absolutely amazing movie. Very well-paced, well-acted and well-executed movie. Character development and acting is just top-notch. Incredibly mature handling of such a difficult topic. Watch in the theatre, you won't be disappointed. The ones giving 2's and 3's are either homophobes or aren't able to appreciate good cinema. Please throng the theatre in droves, this movie and the entire cast deserve nothing but love and appreciation.

This movie illustrate a very good concept and it's represent a reality of our social culture. The Storyline of this movie is good but not that much interesting as I expected. Overall good Movie.
