Shaadi Mein Zaroor Aana

Shaadi Mein Zaroor Aana, directed by Ratnaa Singh and starring Rajkumar Rao and Kriti Kharbanda is a 2017 romantic comedy film which also showcases the evil practices happening in our society like the dowry system and gender stereotypes etc. The pacing of the film is quite good and boast of some really good performances from both the leads Rajkumar Rao and Kriti Kharbanda. The movie choices of Rajkumar Rao is just spot on and he has proved once again that he is the most versatile actors of this industry. However, there were many loopholes in the film because sometimes it felt unreal as to how the government employees can react in this way ?? The ending of the film is a big letdown as that kind of ending was really not necessary for this kind of film. The moral of the film is really good one and especially for the men out there that - " SUCCESS IS THE BEST REVENGE "

Before I begin, I wanna mention that its the first movie of the director. The first half of the movie was absolutely realistic that no one could find a flaw in it. Second half is relatively pale as well as bit fake but it never lets you to be dissapointed unless you already setup your mind that way.

As I began watching it, It exposed the issue of dowry straightforward. I felt like again they've come to teach me a lesson and talking hypothetical stuff I was not ready for. But it manages to keep the orignal scenarios alive. SOMTHING PRACTICAL!

The plot of any romantic movie is pretty much limited and predictable(love trinangles being an exception) and you can't help with this one too. But all in all, it keeps you connected throughout the duration and you won't feel cringe anywhere(daily soaps lack this feature). For few moments it could be compared to "My sassy girl(korean)" credit goes to chemistry between the two.

The acting of the cast was fine with a deserving mention of Rajkumar Rao, bringing all the emotions live. Kriti was fine yet appriciable.

-1 star for turning a bank clerk into an IAS officer without explaination, -1 star for unmatched background music and its layout and including tv serial type cinematography. +1 star for first and great attempt of director. Therefore, 9

This movie's plot is very interesting and the story has a couple of surprise elements in it. But i think the plot still suffers from inconsistency and lazy writing. I think the film is trying to address too many things which it cannot. It's like i watched two good films at once and now having difficulty trying to separate their storyline from one another. The film could have been a lot better if it had stick with one storyline. The climax of the film was cliched and was predictable. Despite all the negative aspects in this film, it wasn't short of entertainment. I liked the film and would easily recommend it to others. The acting, storyline, direction, set design, background score all were top notch. It's one of those films that you would easily point out mistakes from but still won't be shy to love it.

Small town stories are getting very popular. People are moving away from stories of ultra rich people in ultra rich locales. So this writer had good idea set in a small town in Utter Pradesh. The story is relevant, has a social message and has drama. Perfect. No because it has no ending. Add the mandatory Bollywood tadka to it and the film becomes a mess. Kriti Kharbanda is the only saving grace. A bad film overall.

This movie is a romantic-revenge-drama which does present few prevalent social issues, without dwelling too much in depth. The plot does has some loop holes with logic and conviction/stand taken by the characters, but it's a movie afterall. All the actors fit in perfectly well and have done complete justice. Watchable for its little hatke romance story between the characters played by Kriti and Rajkumar.
