Bachelor Party

Santhosh Manchale (Diganth) is in an unhappy marriage, where his wife ill treats him despite him giving everything to that marriage. He is in debt, loses his promotion at work and still is afraid of his dominating wife. He is invited to his friend's bachelor party, which he attends by lying to his wife and there he meets Madhav aka Maddy (Yogi), the one friend he is afraid to meet. As he feared, the drunken bachelor party in Bengaluru leads him to wake up at a hotel in Bangkok along with Maddy and their retired P. T. teacher. What shocker Santhosh finds in Bangkok and further the mess the trio gets into forms rest of the story.

To be honest, even I am pretty surprised at finding the routine men with dominating wives, getting the life sucked out of them to be still funny. This is not a new story yet the writers know the limitations and within that, they have filled with as many laugh out loud moments they could. At 2hrs 25mins, the film is lengthy and it is mainly due to the slow narrative. I need to clarify that the slow narration doesn't hamper the funny moments as the actors get the timing right throughout. Yogi's entry happens 30mins into the film and until then the focus is on Diganth's story despite repetitive scenes, the jokes land well.

The second half does provide a twist and drags along a bit but with the entry Prakash Thuminad ensures hilarious moments. Then there is Achara Kirk as well. The entire third act definitely belongs to Balaji Manohar who simply owns the scenes. Sole complaint will be about the runtime as the films in this genre should have a runtime of 2hrs at max. The final act does provide the full blown mad cap fun and that is where the director won. There is a surprise cameo and a super surprise special appearance as well, as these gimmicks definitely work.

First half ends with a heavy build up. Second half is just blank space. The film loses its direction. Yogi could have been better. Diganth is ok. Achyuth Kumar's role does his best sitting on the wheelchair. Worst movie of 2024. Sad is people are cheated with fake promotion.

Not even funny for college kids.

It's a Bangkok vlogs that's all, simple story no proper characterization, dialogues or any impressive scenes and the comedy barely works. Expected more but at end this what we got.

Overall -- Very boring movie -- Dont expect any comedies -- Waste of time and money.

-- Absolutely irritating movie.

It is a fun joyful light hearted movie... After a long time watched something where I laughed my heart out... Yogi has made such a come back, his character was pulled off with such ease.. The trio combo worked out very well.. The one liners are amazing.. Music is such a game changer.. Arjun Ramu has done a fab job as well.. I would recommend all to watch in theatre with friends for there are many relatable moments in the movie.. The director along with dialogue and screenplay has done a fantastic job with the movie. Kudos, to the team.. Overall a total family entertainer.. Ee sala party joru for sure!!

This movie about a bachelor party is like a bad hangover - terrible headache, no fun memories, and a giant waste of money. The story makes less sense than a drunken karaoke singer, the acting is stiffer than a week-old pizza, and the jokes are about as funny as watching paint dry. Even the special effects look like they were done with a toaster.

This movie is the cinematic equivalent of that awkward moment when you tell a joke to your friends and crickets chirp instead of laughter. Just skip it. You'd be better off chugging a beer and staring at a wall.

For me, Diganth is the most talented actor. He is very fit and agile. But movies offered to him aren't doing any justice to his talent.

In this movie, he is made to leap on one leg in the whole movie for no sane reason. There is no logic, no genuine comedy. Just a mashup of old comedy sequences and even dialogues are not new.

Not sure what talent did Rakshitha Shetty see in this director. They show woman in low light, crack adult joke (which doesn't evoke any laugh).

It's like a bunch of friends went to Thailand with camera, wrote story in the flight and dialogues on the fly, just during the scene.

Please stop encouraging such dim wits so that talent gets chance.
