Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan

Hitesh Kewalya has written the story of the film Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan in such a way that every character comes on screen with his different importance.

He is successful in writing Hrishikesh Mukherjee's films like Pasari film, but on many moments, he is unable to stop it from falling apart.

The film's better script and its agile editing could have made it a classic. Many things are missing in 'Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan.'

Ayushmann and his fellow artist Jitendra have given their lives to make Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan a milestone of their time. If you compare between the two, then this film looks more like Jitendra Kumar's film.

In many scenes as a young man who has lost his life on his male partner, he has fallen heavily on Ayushmann.

In the film, the pair of Gajraj Rao and Neena Gupta try to carry on the harmony of their previous movie Badhaai Ho, but here Gajraj Rao is unable to leave an impact on our mind.

Manu and Sunita's pair is more effective than Chacha and Chachi. And, Maanvi Gagroo and Pankhuri Awasthi also managed to impress the audience in their characters.

The biggest drawback of this film is the scattering of the story. Director Hitesh Kewalya had an opportunity where he could present something different from films made earlier on gay relationships. Could rob the applause of the audience.

He also had Ayushmann Khurrana, but he could not capitalize on this opportunity. In an attempt to highlight every character in the movie, they are unable to tell the real story.

If you are a fan of Ayushman Khurana and you are also homophobic in personal life, then with the help of this film, you can remove your doubts in a very entertaining way.

Apart from this, it is an entertaining family entertainer where almost all the stars tie the knot with good acting.

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.

So here is the first Rom-Com Gay Movie of Bollywood. With Perfect pace of Comedy Movies revolves around Homophobia(Gay). First half is perfectly made, full of punch lines but the second half is bit slow(a bit). All characters done a nice work. Both Lead Actors Ayushmann and Jittu are amazing. Movies not great neither average too. A perfect Debut film is Jittu Bhaiya. I like the movie. I watched this for Ayushmann and Jittu and it gives perfect message and it clears some doubt too. A worth watch movie it is.

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.

Despite of the bold plot which might not be pleasant for many, film never fails to entertain. The direction of Hitesh Kewalya is good and the dialogues are lit as it provides plenty of laughs. Ayushman's acting is just hitting the spot as it is required not above not below just as required according to the plot and supported well by Jitendra Kumar. The reason to like this movie is the relatable family drama and Chaos in joint family system especially in small towns. Once again the chemistry of Neena Gupta & Gajraj Rao is something to watch. Manu Rishi & Sunita Rajwar as Chacha Chachi never disappoints. Special mention to Maanvi Gagroo as Goggle she was funny, beautiful and sympathetic right from the first scene. All in all the movie is entertaining and will surely provide you good laughs.
