This is an Anand L Rai's production and he is known for fun filled film with strong emotional connect, here emotional connect is missing but trust me this film has quite a few moments worth watching for. There are so many characters in the film, but Abhay Deol bags the meatier role and as usual excels in his role. His love interest Zoya (don't know her real name) enacts her part so well, she conveys her anger, hope, helplessness beautifully. More than the story of Happy, the Abhay deol (Bilal) and Zoya's love angle shines in the movie.
Other than all these Ali Faizal and Jimmy both known for good to great acting skills shines well. Piyush Sharma gets gem of the lines in this film and provides heavy dose of laughter. Diana Penty gets an easiest role to play here, most of the work is done by male actors here, she comes back to screen after 3-4 years but this role does not back her skills she shown in Cocktail.
There are no songs you will remember after watching this, and in 2nd half the story does not move much but at climax again it brings smiles at your face.
This is better watch then Rustom and Mohenjo Daro together, it's a pure fun watch. Go with no expectation and you shall return smiling.
2 hours worth refreshment, that's it this movie is.

HAPPY BHAG JAYEGI, a frivolous comedy drama set between cross border enemity with many a funnier frames where the hatred-ness has been exquisitely used to generate chuckle-some notes.
Definitely it's a treat for the lovers of the beguilingly intrinsic beauty Diana Penty and the amalgamated modern unconventional actor Abhay Deol. Jimmy Shergil, Piyush Mishra, Ali Fazal, the Pakistani actor Javed Sheikh and his daughter Momal Sheikh have done absolute justice to their parts.
Few frames are certainly noteworthy , but the movie is lacking grips in many parts.
In entirety, it will do an average appeal to the masses, definitely not a must watch, but I must admit that I liked this movie irrespective of many non-viscid frames.

After recently hearing about this film being banned in Pakistan and being a son of both Pakistani parents, I felt the need to write this review to make sure this film is watched by all.
This film deserves great recognition for making a movie that has an unique and entertaining storyline across both India and Pakistan. The theatre I went to was packed with families and we are enjoyed this movie for showing a positive side to Pakistan and the friendship between both India and Pakistan. The acting was well played by their respective characters, the music was okay, and the scenery of Lahore was beautiful.
I urge people to watch this film and take your families and elderly relatives because this is a feel- good movie by the time it's done.

A small yet impactfull movie.. Yet another typically arranged marriage escaping movie but very well executed.
A good story line, which I guess never been told before.
A good Indo-Pak relation is proposed to be set in days to come in the history of both the countries.
All actors have played their best of work.
Jimmy has played as always a less spoken person but very very very amazingly talented and power-pack performance...
Abhay also managed to justify his role very well..
Diana has very well tried but still lot of missing things were there in her performance, In-fact I am not convinced with the idea of casting Diana in this movie. A very dull performance given by LEAD actress..
Music is amazingly good.. Songs are too good..
In a way the movie is such a good that hides a poor performance of Diana.. All NINE stars are given by me is for movie except DIANA..
I think a squeal is needed for HAPPY BHAG JAYEGI, but not with DIANA PANTY...
Good job DONE...

This is a funny movie. Diana leads it with a brilliant performance. Piyush Mishras Urdu was a bit difficult to understand but at certain times, the director gives you few seconds to think over and laugh at it. Jimmy as good as always. Ali Fazals expression n dialogue delivery was brilliant. I am now a fan of him. Abhay is alright, seen him doing better. A fun watch with good supporting cast.
