A massive upgrade from the previous Bhai film - Race 3 in which I suffered from the start to the end. I was having 0 expectations from the film but it wasn't that bad. I must say it's a remake of the old Bollywood scripts and the plot line is almost constant with no thrill and fun whatsoever but the first half did have some clichéd Bollywood humor but still was able to make me giggle at times. The performances of the film - Bhai didn't do much there, it was a below average bhai performance, Katrina is trying to improve her skills, which is commendable, I think. Sunil Grover kept upto his name as an amazing and effortless actor and the other performances of the film varied accordingly, some were very cringe while some were great. As a Bollywood movie usually does the lack of story was compensated with unnecessary songs and item numbers. The story has nothing special to offer and gets really complicated in the second half. Although it being better than other Bhai films it's really not worth your time and money.

A story which justifies the hype it created before even releasing. There's alot to the other than just big names. The contribution of Zoya Akhtar's whole team is brilliant and is visible throughout. The film has a gripping narrative. It has a lot of parallel stories which are quite clear due to Zoya's brilliant directing. Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt have delivered great performances which were expected. Siddhant Chaturvedi is also a delight to watch. The authenticity of the film if commendable.
