Movie is ok ok. Ended abruptly.
Ayushman has done better movies than this. Shefali Shah is a brilliant actor as always & so is Sheeba.
Movie concept was good. Story could have been crafted better to make it a hit & with good message. Was a bit of mixture message and was all over the place with multiple things happening.
A one off watch and very light one though. Lots in but not conveyed as expected. Can take it as a time pass with no thinking to be done.
Ayushman's movie's are usually worth watching and comes out with a good theme and message but this did not hit the mark.
Hope to see better ones in future.

While the movie has some shortcomings in storytelling, cinematography, script and overall art of movie making, it is a brave attempt to highlight issues lurking in our society.
For the people who hope for it to be a comedy movie or those who think it is addressing a social issue; both extremes will be dissatisfied after the movie.
Instead of defining what you expect the movie to be, taking it with an open mind will reveal a hidden commentary on social characters in our life.
Media will have us believe about the glamorous life of dating and partying and having "fun". Netflix and chills? This movie underlines what is real character and success.
Gynaecology is not the theme here. It was just a tool to highlight the majority male mentality. This movie is not a commentary on stereotypes associated with medical roles. It is a movie that primarily highlights how men behave and think especially with women who refused their proposal. Ask any of your female friends, how much insulting it can be to lose a friend after refusing a proposal. It reveals the motives of men in talking to women and the inability to maintain a platonic relationship or see their partners have platonic relationships.
The underlying thread in the movie is about this male mindset and not about a profession or a love story.
This movie is accurately tagged as drama. It is neither a documentary nor a comedy although it might share some parts from it.
While I won't place this movie as 10/10, it definitely doesn't deserve the extreme hatred it is getting in some reviews. I appreciate everyone so time and effort that went in producing this.
It's a brilliant effort and trying to send a message that not many dare to convey. A typical movie might have had their love story continue and keep the finny gag up and entertain the audience. But this movie took the road less travelled.

I don't get the message......we are supposed to get message like being a male gynecologist is fine but at the end we got the message like female having male bestie is fine.
I don't get this.....having boyfriend but still enjoying everything else with other man is fine.
Engaging to one man , kissing another and saying I want you in my life as a friend. Kissing someone doesn't means you want him as a friend. What the mindset of bollywood.if boy did the same with girl then everything get changed. Girl don't even want her bf went out with girl . But girl kissed his friend is normal . From the beginning i am supposed to get a good message but everything changed suddenly and fall to the side to feminism.

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.
