Doctor G

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.

This is a dramedy - in fact it is primarily a drama with some lighter moments. It is much more serious than some other serious issues Khurana has tackled in most of his other comedies. The director is confused whether to treat it as a comedy or a drama and it is essentially a drama after the first third of the movie.

Khurana has become formulaic in that he acts as the protagonist in a social issue movie which has some light hearted moments.

This could have been a comedy-drama like Ted Lasso which makes you smile and also swell up. But, the movie misses its potential by making the storyline too complicated.

Before interval everything seems interesting and after that everything changes to disappoint

You'll enjoy the first half of the movie as it is filled with good jokes and punch lines. In the second half everything goes down hill as the story takes a very different approach towards the characters.

The cast is really great as acting wise everyone does a fabulous job

I have given it a 7 star just coz of the performance by the actors. Other than that it will stoop even lower.

The song Step Copy was also missing from the movie, saw it on the YouTube ads god knows what was going on.

Much akin to Ayushmann's prior social dramas, which claim a large majority of his filmography to date, the film does effectively emancipate its core message but fails to create a long-lasting impression. Incompetencies not only did lie in the write-up, but the loopholes were also quite pronounced in its overall exhibition.

The humor doesn't function, the characters and their interrelationships are not explored enough, on the contrary, some of the peculiar character decisions make their case even more convoluted and breed needless contradictions. Apart from these, there are no other glaring missteps. Make no mistake, it is not a terrible film, but the kind of subject they have dealt with, it mandates a rather sincere attempt.

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.
