Featured review
Pros and Cons of Being Single is a film with an inventive premise: a single man grappling with sudden house guests during a natural disaster while making hilariously doomed attempts at hitting on them. The film takes a unique approach to storytelling. While most disaster movies focus on survival, Shetty's character prioritizes his romantic aspirations, albeit with catastrophic results.
Anurag Shetty bravely stars as Prem, the luckiest single guy to have stocked up on survival snacks, as strangers flock to his door. He manages to combine absurd humor and moments of relatability into a tight 65-minute runtime
And then there's the crowd of houseguests-each bringing their own quirks, demands, and zero respect for personal space. The interactions between the guests and the host often escalate into comedic showdowns, showcasing impeccable timing, especially from a scene-stealing Isaac D'Souza as Jimmy. Of course, the sci-fi disaster backdrop adds an extra layer of absurdity, with over-the-top scenarios that amplify the comedy. Think less "heroic rescue" and more "how do I flirt during an apocalypse?"
In the end, Pros and Cons of Being Single is like a romantic comedy that crash-landed into a disaster movie and decided to stay for the laughs. Watching Anurag Shetty's character fumble through one failed pick-up attempt after another is both a masterclass in comedic timing and a cautionary tale for anyone considering flirting during the apocalypse. This is definitely one you do not want to miss!
