Average movie with gags working in pieces
A small-budget movie that surprisingly had a good run at the box office. It had no big cast to boast about, and usually, such movies are good, so it was my first choice as soon as it landed on OTT.
It is a movie about the first night of a newly wedded couple, where the bride gets drunk accidentally, making her reveal her past. This gets chaotic when the whole family becomes involved, and they set out to get to the bottom of it.
Althaf Salim, as the lead, tries hard to justify his role, but he still comes across as a sidekick as he has in other movies. Anarkali Marikar couldn't pull off the role, especially the drunk scenes; you can see that she is trying to act drunk. Then comes a series of actors as relatives and friends who are the real stars, with all of them performing well, especially the actress who played the mother, nailing her part.
The story does seem interesting, but there's not much going on in the movie as, after a point, it becomes repetitive. Logic surely goes out of the window, as whatever translated on screen can only happen in movies, which takes away from the relatability.
A few gags and dialogues work in its favor. It is a below-average movie that should be your choice when you want to watch something light and brainless while keeping your expectations low.
