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.

I was already interested in this movie because of trailer. the trailer was superb and the movie didn't let it down. it is a family movie. there is light comedy. as per name Happy (Diana Panty) is in main role but Abhay Deol took the credit for the movie. he is a good actor but unfortunately he didn't get good roles. But this movie is a great come back for him. Jimmi Shergil is and Piyush Mishra again rocked. both are great actors and deserve much than their present situation in bollywood. Ali Fazal is just time pass. I have seen his some movies Fukre, Fast & furious 7 and now Happy Bhaag jayegi but in all movie i didn't get his different emotion on his face. his acting is like doing same thing again and again. but director keep his role short so it is good. I heartily laughed in this movie many times. they didn't take India-Pakistan dispute on negative level. this difference is changed in light comedy. So at the last, I say MUST Watch movie.

From the trailer one would get interested in the movie just to find what would happen if a young bride accidentally runs away from borders of India to Pakistan. Would it be too grave consequences as projected by Sarjit? Would it be like Bajrangi Bhaijaan? How the story writer will take the story further? First half of movie is full of comedy. Few in audience can be seen bursting into loud laughter on the punch lines. These must be those who understand Urdu words like 'Tashrif'. Second half should have been able to take the movie equally or higher level of comedy. Abhay Deol performance is good and natural. Overall it a time pass. There will not be a regret of wasting time and money.
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.
