Luka Casting of Chuppi: Kartik Aaryan, Kriti Sanon, Aparshakti Khurana, Pankaj Tripathi, Vinay Pathak
Luka Chuppi director: Laxman Utekar
Luka Chuppi movie note: One and Half Stars

Somewhere deep inside Luka Chuppi is the film she wanted to be: a presentation of the tedious rituals and hypocrisies that link socially sanctioned relationships, and an attack on religious fanaticism.

But the writing and the treatment are valid. so cowardly that the intent only goes up to the surface occasionally.

The inhabitants of Mathura, Guddu Shukla (Aaryan) and Rashmi Trivedi (Sanon) decide to bypbad the path `mandap-and-mangalsutra 'and discover for themselves the joys of compatibility. Can they cut onions and clean toilets amicably in domestic happiness? If so, wedding bells can follow.

Or no. Given Rashmi's 'shirk sanskritya parivaar', they may be ashamed. Trivedi Sr (Pathak) is a 'neta' whose wife wears a 'ghoonghat'. He also hates life relations. Couples-less-sahaadi 'is a safe shorthand for' barbaadi ', so what does it do with Guddu and Rashmi?

It could have been a neat and fun movie, well done. Instead, we see endless scenes of yakking family members, neighbors gossiping and a few pbadages between Guddu and Rashmi that look sensual and seductive (rolling in a bed in shorts and Ts, ah, speaking of & # 39; protection & # 39; how forward, double haww). Aaryan and Sanon, in their first couple, come out of the Bollywood standard number

. This is also the kind of movie that allows Pankaj Tripathi to play a cheap that can not keep it in his pants, which he does brilliantly. But the character (and some of his dubious lines, included strictly for laughter) also lowers the movie.

Subversion attempts, in which Guddu and Rashmi try to become legal, are welcome. But you would like the filmmakers to have been more courageous, as it was an opportunity for a mainstream film to fend off those "sansthas" as terrible as supposedly who feed on young lovers in small towns.

The Muslim Abbas of Khurana, who has the best replica film, is put aside in all majoritarianism. If you really want to hit the bigots where it hurts, you have to do it early and hard. It is not enough to lament the horrors of life relations in the film, for a last minute live and live speech,
