Vicky Vidya ka Woh Wala Video

Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video is a film that starts with promise but fizzles out due to weak storytelling and direction. It tries to be a complete fun entertainer but falls short of delivering a consistently entertaining experience. While it starts off on a high note with funny dialogues and one-liners, the film suffers from a lack of story and a sloppy screenplay, making it a tale of two halves-one that entertains and one that irritates. The makers' attempt to include horror-comedy scenes, especially the homage to the hit film "Stree," was a major letdown. What should have been a clever nod turned out to be a sequence that didn't quite fit and left the audience disappointed.

Writer-director Raj Shandilya, who made a name for himself with comedy hits like "Dream Girl" and "Dream Girl 2," demonstrates his knack for humor in the first half of this film. The opening half is a riot-every joke lands, the punchlines hit the mark. The dialogue is sharp, and the chemistry between the lead characters is fun to watch. However, the fun doesn't last long. As soon as the second half begins, the film loses its charm. The plot centers around the search for 'that CD,' but after a while, this chase becomes repetitive and boring. The film could have easily been cut by 15 minutes with some tighter editing.

Rajkummar Rao shines in the comic sequences, his impeccable timing elevating the humor. Triptii Dimri supports him well, but her character feels underdeveloped. She had the potential for more, but the script fails to give her enough depth. One of the brighter spots in the film is Mallika Sherawat, making a brilliant comeback. Vijay Raaz and Tiku Talsania, did their best to inject life into their roles and bringing genuine laughs. Rakesh Bedi and Archana Patel are terrific in their respective roles. It's a treat to see Mast Ali, famous for his Hyderabadi comedy films, in a Hindi movie. He adds a unique flavor to the comedy. However, even all these strong performance can't save the film from its weak narrative.

Direction 2.5/5 Acting 3/5 Dialogues 3/5 Story 2/5 Screenplay 2/5.

First half seemed promising, some good jokes and lame jokes around, but movie fails to hold the plot and storyline, feels streched and yet fails to deliver despite good starcast.

A mere entertainer which you can watch once or miss out.

As usual we can see Rajkumar rao trying his best but yet failing, tripti seems average, jokes some falls short , some sure does make you laugh and some makes you question about the film. The plot does not carry us in the storyline. It diverts alot just to entertain us, leaving alot of dead spots which could have been filled with alot of creativity.

A no brainer semi entertainer.

Vidya is about to get married and she along with her lover Vicky, trick everyone at the wedding into believing that the groom is an insecure guy, doubting Vidya. As the marriage gets cancelled, Vicky steps into marry Vidya despite her being a doctor and him, a mehendi artist. They lie to their family and change their honeymoon destination to Goa, where they end up making a private video of themselves for memories. Back at home, they get robbed and the CD got left in the CD player which got stolen. Now, Vicky has to retrieve the CD no matter what after realizing how incompetent the cops on the case are. Through comedy of errors, Vicky and co, uncover a nasty truth and how do they resolve the issue, forms rest of the story.

The gang behind Comedy Circus is honestly capable of much more than what they have delivered in this movie. Sadly the film is laden with recycled jokes that remain dead on arrival and the film doesn't take itself seriously till the final act which alone could have worked in it's favor, if the dramatic final act hadn't turn towards preaching. The jokes too needed to be better as the bunch of good actors have been given nothing to work with. The film kept dragged on without any worthy comedy segment and the actors could only do so much. More than a decade ago, I would have laughed at some of these jokes as part of comedy circus skit but not anymore. I am aware of deletion of Stree segment so even with it, that whole graveyard scene wouldn't have been funny.

Overview: The type of movie that Hindi Cinema should have left behind in this day and age. Full of implausible scenarios, overacting, and no real attention paid to plot.

Plot: Set in 1997, the story is interesting enough with Vicky and Vidya a young couple looking to recover the CD on which they filmed an adult video of themselves. They get themselves into completely ridiculous scenarios. The main issue plot wise is that random things keep happening that were not mentioned before. For example, the main villain does not appear until 2/3 the way through, and we don't know the context for which they are there. Also there is an element of horror which totally doesn't fit the rest of the plot and just seems to be there for some random multiverse situation.

Acting: The acting is fine with decent performances by both Rajkummar Rao and Tripti Dimri. The script was terrible so not much that they could do with it. The rest of the cast is fine as well nothing much to report on.

Music: Music is ok with one very good song Mere Mehboob playing during the credits as an item number.

Conclusion: Not even worth a watch on OTT platforms. Give this one a miss.

I observed lots of mixed reviews from the audiences as well as from the critics yet went for it because of it's strong starcast and good film makers name associated with it. In simple terms I can consider it as a decent one time watch kind of comedy which is worth watching in my personal view.

The Acting performances of both leading characters were superb and all other supportive characters also played their parts brilliantly. Rajkumar as Vicky is totally suitable for such kind of roles. His way of talking, comic timings and actions while portraying his funky roles were hilarious to watch. Tripti Dimri was damn adorable in this entire movie and played her part decently. Leading character's parents were also hilarious to watch with their funky roles. But The Show Stealer performance was given by Vijay Raj here. Hands down! It was his best work in recent times. His style, action, comic timing and so called romance in this movie definitely outplayed Rajkumar's character for sure. Even his chemistry with Mallika Shehrawat was also damn better than our leading characters.

Storyline of this movie was very short and extremely short forward. 90s songs were very well attached according to the situations but other songs were average in this movie. The runtime is also little bit dragged I guess, I mean in the beginning of this movie they could have been trimmed down the story a little bit. And of course the climax story, Ohh man! That was completely out of plot, they just adjusted it little bit to get mixed with the main plot and of course some unnecessary melodramatic dialogue deliveries, not that suitable for all kind of audiences.

Overall a decent watch, if you want to spend your boring time with a fresh comedy movie. From my side it will be 6 out of 10 Stars for it and I will consider it as 90% safe to watch with family, but beware of some double meaning cringe dialogues and 2/3 soft makeout scene..That's it...
