Doctor G

Much akin to Ayushmann's prior social dramas, which claim a large majority of his filmography to date, the film does effectively emancipate its core message but fails to create a long-lasting impression. Incompetencies not only did lie in the write-up, but the loopholes were also quite pronounced in its overall exhibition.

The humor doesn't function, the characters and their interrelationships are not explored enough, on the contrary, some of the peculiar character decisions make their case even more convoluted and breed needless contradictions. Apart from these, there are no other glaring missteps. Make no mistake, it is not a terrible film, but the kind of subject they have dealt with, it mandates a rather sincere attempt.

This is a dramedy - in fact it is primarily a drama with some lighter moments. It is much more serious than some other serious issues Khurana has tackled in most of his other comedies. The director is confused whether to treat it as a comedy or a drama and it is essentially a drama after the first third of the movie.

Khurana has become formulaic in that he acts as the protagonist in a social issue movie which has some light hearted moments.

This could have been a comedy-drama like Ted Lasso which makes you smile and also swell up. But, the movie misses its potential by making the storyline too complicated.

One of the film's strengths lies in its unique premise. By focusing on a male gynecologist in a predominantly female field, the film sheds light on the challenges and prejudices that come with breaking gender norms. The film effectively uses humor to address serious issues, making its social commentary accessible without feeling too preachy.

The supporting cast also deserves recognition. Shefali Shah and Rakul Preet Singh bring depth to their roles, offering performances that complement Khurrana's and add layers to the story. Their characters are well-developed, providing a balance to the film's comedic elements and grounding it in reality.

However, Doctor G isn't without its weaknesses. The romantic subplot feels predictable and sometimes unnecessary, detracting from the film's core themes. While the chemistry between the leads is pleasant, the romance doesn't add much to the story, and the resolution is foreseeable from early on. Similarly, some of the dialogue feels clichéd, lacking the sharpness needed to elevate the script to its full potential.

In the end, this film delivers a mixed bag, with its strengths lying in its thematic exploration and performances, while its weaknesses stem from a predictable romance and occasional lapses in dialogue. For those looking for a film that combines social commentary with laughs, the film offers an entertaining ride, even if it occasionally follows a familiar path.

Doctor G is a comedy drama film directed by anubhuti kashyap.

Ayushmann khurana does what he has done over the years. There was nothing new from her. Rakul preet singh has fallen off the cliff it seems, her acting potential is substantially declining. Sheeba chaddha and shefali shah hold the ship together with their presence. The supporting cast is good.

The screenplay is engaging. Its more of a drama than comedy, the drama is built well. The shift from a chauvinist to losing the "male touch" was handled well. The film talks about sensitive topics. It tried to layer it in comedy, but the trope is getting repetitve to be honest.

Music is pretty average. There is no chartbuster or any instant-likeable song.

The movie lost the hilarious theme and went on another

Movie started with a bang and about One and half hour it was too hilarious and entertaining but then suddenly they kept aside the humour and went on serious topics like love story, doctor ethics ,incidents etc

Ayushmann has a tough road as his last 3 movies were flop and this one will follow rakul was ok in supporting role..Shefali has maintained her trend of hard hitting acting as followed by many series

The movie would had got the hit tag if they would had continued the humours trend and released on ott as they have tough competition with aye zindagi and kantara.
