Well filmed and thoughtful. Director captures nicely how Indian women in lower middle class have to accept their husband's dictums and have no right to be ambitious.

It is the story or a woman who wants her husband and herself to live in an owned house and be well off but is misled to take the wrong path due to her husband's lack of ambition and his being a miser.

Movie is very realistic and a good portrayal by Sara Ali Khan. Having lived a few years in South India we have all seen lower middle class marrying their girls before 18. They have children by 21 and are expected to look after their homes and have no desires or ambitions in life.

While people claim that they have respect for women, the ground reality in India is still that women are not yet equal to men and don't have the same rights to build careers and be ambitious. This movie in a light mood highlights an important prevalent social stigma. Wish it had better and deeper insights though.

I adore the film's depiction of middle-class families and their everyday struggles in a lighthearted manner. Most of the comedic moments are indeed over-the-top and delivered with exaggerated enthusiasm, but they still manage to create genuinely humorous situations.

The film's downfall lies not in its intention but rather in the script's lack of clarity and ambition. Additionally, I feel the family dynamic is terribly underplayed, which in turn makes the dramatic scenes and the emotions within them feel superficial, or rather half-baked in a sense.

Good for passing the time, but nothing exemplary to write home about.

Entertaining but lacks the screenplay and average performances by the cast except for Vicky Kaushal. Usual basic storyline with same old formula makes the film average. Ist half is too stretched lack of screenplay and nothing impactful happens but the 2nd half is more upward as the story gets serious which is good to watch. Superb acting by lead cast and others. There are some scenes in which acting is little over the top and gets irritating to watch. You'll also laugh in some scenes as they are quite good but rest of film is just average. Director could've taken a different take and makes the film more exciting but instead the film just perform like an average one. Dialogues are good but nothing new or exciting that would remind you. All n all it's an average film watch it for to otherwise wait for OTT...

Finally after many movies, bollywood gave a beautiful story with the perfect script. The movie starts with happiness and ends with happiness, without any lack of laughter. No character nor dialogue is forced into the audience. Every frame of those 140 minutes is meant to be there.

Sandeep shirodkar did very well with the score, and the songs by Sachin-Jigar are really 10/10. All the songs were perfectly blended into the story.

Talking about the cast, this movie is having the best supporting roles. Vickey kaushal lived his character and even Sara Ali Khan did improve her acting. I don't find any flaws to point out.

The story explains you the real meaning of few things.

Finally laxman ji made a hatrick with this. The meaningful climax leaves an impact of the movie on you.

When there are VFX based science fiction, pointless action, repeat horror movies endlessly hitting audience and when there's band of content in the web series endlessly coming to audience, a warm, romantic, old fashioned love story is always welcome.

For new comer, Sara did justice to her role. Vishal has done pretty good job. Others have done well too. Storyline may not be gripping but stayed around the morality of family values.

It's a good entertainer for a family! Few light laughs, views of indore ki gallis, local dialect, food joints, couple of good songs, light subject. All in all, good one!
