I enjoy the chemistry of Bhumi Padnekar and Ayushmann Khurrana together. This is a really sweet romantic film. I have to hand it to Ayushmann to go there. He is the same one who tackled sperm donation in Vicky Donor, a really enjoyable film, and now stars in a comedy about erectile dysfunction.
In an Indian romantic comedy, nothing is private, and every family member has to give their two cents about the couple’s predicament.
One of my favorite scenes has Bhumi insist that Ayushmann give her the band baaja baaraat she really wants, and when he does it is a glorious moment.
Both Bhumi and Ayushmann are riding the success this summer of their last pairing, Dum Laga Ke Haisha. I wish their films hadn’t been clustered so close together. I’m not sure the public is ready to see so much of them all at once. This film has a lot of charm, and it’s definitely worth a trip to the theater.
