Plot: The movie is a story of two warring neighbours one a Gujarati Hasmukh Patel (Paresh Rawal) and other a Punjabi Guggi Tandon (Rishi Kapoor). But at the backdrop of this open war between the two neighbours, their kids Monty (Vir Das) the Punjabi lad falls in love with Pooja (Payal Ghosh) a Gujarati damsel. The movie’s crux is all about trying to make them friendly and generate some liking between the two neighbours and manoeuvring them to agree to the marriage.
Review: The movie is quite predictable all through; in fact, we got a clue of it from the trailer only didn’t we?
This formula in the Bollywood movies has been shown several times before but yes the execution is what makes it different and yes that is different in the movie as you get to see everything from the modern age and today’s age perspective.
The Patel is not in favour of marrying off her daughter to the son of loud and flamboyant Punjabis and this is the main crux of the movie, a point around which the entire movie revolves. We see Patel trying every possible thing to make sure that the marriage breaks but at last the love of the two wins over.
We see Patel trying every possible thing to make sure that the marriage breaks but at last the love of the two wins over.
The movie’s direction is poor, however, the acting of polished actors like Paresh Rawal and Rishi Kapoor, makes the movie watching worthwhile. Vir Das is good and so is the Payal Ghosh. There are good punches in the movie and some good laughter moments too, but still, the movie lacks in impressing. The music is average and hence the movie doesn’t stand close to any of the other releases of the day.
Why To Watch: We recommend you to watch 'Patel Ki Punjabi Shaadi' movie for Rishi Kapoor and Paresh Rawal, who have together done a brilliant job in the movie apart from that it can be a good one time watch only.
