Shaadi Karke Phas Gaya Yaar

You'd only like this movie if you want to hit women, dominate everyone and want everything your way. If you support taking away the freedom of bodily autonomy, if you have ego issues like the main male character, if you're a momma's boy and want your partner to leave her whole life and career behind to be a housewife for you and live with your 20 family members because you can't prioritize your own partner and would rather she sacrifices her life, comfort and freedom instead of starting your own family in privacy or even simply giving your partner a comfortable and private place - then this movie is for you.

'Shaadi Karke Phas Gaya Yaar' falls flat because of some terrible writing. K.S. Adiyaman previously directed 'Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam', and whatever anyone may say, I really liked this movie because of the story, the songs and the star cast. However, this film cannot be saved by neither such aspect. The songs are forgettable, the story is somewhat interesting but the dated script only worsens with every scene. Somehow I managed to go through the film for Salman and Shilpa. They play a newly married couple whose differences make their lives miserable. I am not going to mention anything because I do not support either party and the film actually hardly deals with anything according to me. The dialogues are very poor and at some point pathetic. Had the film been directed by someone else, I believe it would have been a far more watchable fare. Salman Khan looks as though he could not care less about this film. It may be one of the many films he made as a favour to a friend. Shilpa Shetty, however, tries her best. It was a time in her career when she was struggling to at least get a film, and she really did the best of what she was given, though sadly she was not given much. I do not recommend you to watch this film.

Well I decided to watch this movie right after I saw Pyaar ke side-effects and was of course expecting something on the same lines here as well. Alas, how could I expect Bollywood to make me happy twice in a row! I was surprised to see the director making such a movie and even if he filmed this, deciding to release it! It appears that this movie is at least 10 years late compared to the present state of Bollywood. Everything, from the songs to the plot, stinks of Hum Aapke Hain Kaun, DDLJ, Hum Saath Saath Hain etc.

Its amazes me to no extent that directors did not realize that the masses no more want those sob-stories of "Ideal families"! Karan Johar still has been surprisingly doing that job well and this should be left for him to do! The story-line is predictable, songs are early 90's, all in all I regretted watching this movie. It was far from being comic, in contrast to what the name suggested.

One of the worst films I've ever seen is a distortion of the image of women in society. A woman is not here to have children for you. She is human and she has life and a future. She has a dream and wants a job. How dare any human stop her ?

This is such a true movie. I see this evident in multiple families around me, verbatim. I know the father loves everyone and wants to let them do whatever they want, but that leads to major problems. So if you truly love them, then give true love, don't fall or let others fall. If someone is falling, love is not watching them fall. This is a great family movie that shows that love is not passion, as we think it is today, but its doing what's right for the good of the family unit. True happiness is seeing the other happy, even if they can't see that happiness in the short term. True respect is respecting your elders. The father has a responsibility of love, and this movie accurately portrays the issues if he does not take that responsibility.

The only knock I have on this movie is that the patch-up between the quiet father and his wife happens within 15 seconds, it was too quick, looked too forced.
