Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan

Generous (6/10)*

Movie is a decent attempt and makes an interesting comment on homophobia which exists in our country.

A major chunk of the film is about conflict within the family and during such times, the principle homosexuality angle takes a backseat.

First half is very humourous and timing of punches r perfect.

Post interval however, the film drops. The scenes are supposed to be funny but don't make you laugh. Also it becomes too lame and unconvincing. The makers try their best to make things interesting but it doesn't work.

A missed Opportunity.

Don't understand all the negative review. Movie was pretty funny - little bit of drag or preachy in between, but it is kind of needed for homophobic brain washed people. Most of us in India have been brought up in this manner - education, family, friends etc all these factors points towards making fun of homosexual people. See I got preachy too .... this movie was kind of targeting such audiences to open up their eyes. Anyhow this is no brainer, full time pass, comedy drama movie. Highly recommend.

Acting by everyone is good but a thing is missing in whole script. I think that is the soul of the movie..

I Didn't like the First Installment 'Shubh Mangal Savdhaan' that much cause of the convulatded plot and sloppy execution on the core issue. Unlike here where the message has been successfully delivered with solid entertainment all over it.

Let's Sum up the Pros here,

#1 The Performances are the Soul of this film. With everyone performing to their absolute best! Gajraj Rao, Jeetendra, Manu Rishi, Maanvi they just steal the show!

#2 The cinematography and the sound score is well shot and put. The direction is top notch. As a Debutant, Hitesh Kewalya has done a fantastic job as the director here.

#3 Screenplay and Dialogues are on the upper level. They make you laugh on a consistent basis. The powerful combination of them worked wonders.

#4 The characters and their chemistries in between are Electric. They Gelled so well together. This ensembled cast is something Special. Must mention Ayushmann And Jeetendra. Them, as a Gay Couple lit up the screen. Their Chemistry was on fire.

#5 The most positive thing here is that the a sensitive subject such as Homosexuality has been handled carefully with a fun element in it. It never seemed to force upon its particular views on us. It rather makes us decide to make the call or a generate an opinion on this regard.

But at the same time. The seriousness and the Emotional moments failed to book a place. Cause of the linear writing & fun elements all throughout the runtime. It never really showcases real life sufferings and horrors one might have to suffer because of their different Sexuality in our society. That's the only Con I have in here.

As for the Homosexuality subject, In my opinion 'If two people irrespective of their sexuality and genders love each other with their whole heart and Loyalty. There's nothing wrong in it' It doesn't matter whether We as society encourage that particular relationship or not. But We must not atleast discriminate them. Let them be like they are. Let them Live and love. There's nothing Bigger than Love & Respect. We all have rights for it.

The first part was fun. Once announced, it came to my watchlist right away and I was excited for it. Considering it's a different movie than other, expectations went higher. But what happened? The story that could have been well polished, is wasted. The direction is very poor. Cinematography poor. Poor writing and making it become a dark movie. I don't understand why this comedy has to be dark? BGM was upsetting. Some performces, except the leads, were so poor that we couldn't even bare watching. It's a different story, is a Sit-Com which is the reason it has some positive wom, or else with this direction the movie will go nowhere trust me. Add some unnecessary drama and some missed moments.
