Plan A Plan B

This movie is supposed to be a romcom but there is hardly any rom or com in it. It suffers from an indifferent screenplay, some lackluster and cheesy dialogue, few ridiculous situations and generally below par acting. As strong headed characters both Riteish Deshmukh and Tamannah Bhatia apparently do not have any understanding and hence the scenes lack warmth. The movie is a damp squib to put it mildly and some portions of the film are difficult to sit through. Riteish is a divorce lawyer and Tamannah is a family counselor and both are at loggerheads professionally and personally. Their scenes of professional rivalry shown are crude, childish and cringe worthy and the comedy falls flat. Some scenes lack logic and conviction. A scene in which the volunteers are blindfolded and asked to sniff out compatible partners using their sense of smell is outrageously bad. The jokes are either crude or bland or both. Both Riteish and Tamannah are disappointing big time in poorly written roles which are not convincing at all. Poonam Dhillon does what she can in a comic role as Tamannah's mother and does not impress. The lesson for the director is that you can't make a good film on weak written work. Overall it is a disappointment.

The Movie is chill and romantic. There is good Spend over the weekend watching this movie. Particularly who likes Romantic movies, they should go for it.

The best part of director Shashanka Ghosh's 'Plan A Plan B' is the vibe that these protagonists share.

Riteish Deshmukh is at his best form portraying the cynical character Kosty in measured tones. Even when he and his behaviour seem strange, it's easy to root for him and his comedic timing. Tamannaah Bhatia successfully brings the vulnerability and fierceness of Nirali to the fore. Their mutual hatred adds curiosity to their characters. But what we don't see is the lead couple's crackling chemistry. Individually, they do shine in their respective acts, but nothing feels natural when they develop feelings for each other.

Plan A Plan B is a love story involving Nirali (Tamannaah) a matchmaker battling her own tragic past & Kosty (Riteish), a divorce lawyer too scared to end his own marriage. This is also the kind of film where Tamannaah acts to be a bad dancer & Riteish a best dancer. A simple done to death story of two completely opposite individuals with similar problems, finding each another, after a lot of squabble.

It definitely could have worked better if there was bit more magic in the chemistry between the two. The dialogues many a times fell flat & the film remained one toned. Being predictable was never it's problem, it just wasn't entertaining enough even with that less runtime. All those compatibility tests like pheromone test, KEOT etc.. just added onto the runtime & Poonam Dhillon as the mom was in a way wasted.

'Ameer logon ki ameeron wali problems' is the most apt review anyone can give this movie.

There was so much potential this movie had for a good drama, but everything was wasted. The dialogues were cringe, there was no comedy, and you wouldn't feel any connection or sympathy with any character. The ending was nonsensical and completely predictable.

There was just nothing in here except frame after frame of idiocy. All the other characters except the leads (which were unidimensional) appeared to be idiots without an iota of brain cells. All in all, a pathetic movie with no story. If Bollywood does not come out of its 'love' obsession in every story, it will be facing a serious problem. This was supposed to be a light movie, which it is, but there is just nothing worth watching in it. Woke garbage which a woke director who I think is not a human at all (might be a donkey) is trying to shove down audience's throats.

Consider yourself warned!

Directed by Shashanka Ghosh, Penned by Rajat Arora. Premiered on Netflix from September 30th. . Starring Ritesh Deshmukh & Tamannaah Bhatia in lead role.

A story of a match macher and a divorce lawyer. Sounds interesting & it feels more interesting when we see both of them working in the same workspace so that a couple who finds a perfect match eventually doesn't have to fetch a divorce lawyer when its just opposite to the match makers office.

Tamannaah playing the character of Nirali who runs the match making business & Ritesh as Kaustubh Chougule a divorce lawyer just takes us through the changing trends of marriage concept.

Implanting a back story in each one of the lead characters life, it shows us again that a love lost person can find a love again which we saw in the movie "Raja Rani "directed by Atlee or a person handling his/her divorce or a divorced person should not feel bad if they come across a person who is compatible to them. Life is not over by one failed relationship or by a broken marriage

Overall, a topic which we often now seeing in our society taken in a different way of storytelling.

Tamannah & Ritesh had done an ok kind of performance.
