User Reviews

A unique story that can easily reach the Indian's heart

While watching Badhaai Ho I was remembering a dialogue - "Family is above everything" from the film 'Coco'. Badhai Ho is definitely a film that makes you love of your family sometimes more.

Nakul's (Ayushmaan Kuranna) family resembles a perfect happy Punjabi family until the tragedy happens when Nakul's mother (Neena Gupta) get pregnant on her late 50s. For sure Nakul, his brother and his his grandma everyone started blaming her and his husband (Gajraj Rao) for being careless. And this story spread like flame and they all started feeling exhausting on the society.

Now It's reflect a story that's really unique and anyone will want to know what's gonna happen next. The next situations are quite realistic and perfectly organised. Every scene is so funny and hilarious that makes you sit through the film. And the film has a kind of humor that can makes anyone laugh.

Amit Sharma comes with this amazing story and he is successful to reach India's heart, anyone can fall in love with his work. When talking about the acting Gajraj Rao did a great a job and everyone else in this film is amazing, Ayushman Khurrana getting to an unique place on Bollywood day by day. The screenplay written by Jyoti Kapoor and several others is great. The background score sometimes makes the film melodramatic but that's not a question at all because the drama never gets too much because of the beautiful cinematography(Best of 2018 after 'October) by Sanu Varghese.

Overall it's a 2nd amusement in 1 month by one and only Ayushmaan Khurrana that is completely watchable and anyone can say "Let's make this kind of films more"
