Review of the film Luka Chuppi: The Kartik comedy Aaryan-Kriti Sanon is just not funny for most

Luka Chuppi with Kartik Aaryan and Kriti Sanon, is a 2 hours 6 minute film with 2 hours of overtime. I am not joking. It is a film that makes no sense, and continues in the same vein for most of its time.

Guddu (Kartik) and Rashmi (Kriti) meet and fall in love with his internship on Mathura's cable TV channel, where he is the star reporter. He proposes marriage, but she thinks that they should live together to badess their compatibility before embarking on it. That sounds right, except that his father is a right-wing politician attached to the "protection of Indian culture". This is the kind of neta that party workers regularly harbad unmarried romantic couples.
So it's a good thing that Guddu and Rashmi are sent to Gwalior for a job, where they rent an apartment to get an idea of ​​what it might be like to spend their lives together. Much of the movie's alleged humor is based on the misunderstanding that the couple is married when it is not. For reasons that never seem convincing or quite plausible, they try repeatedly to sneak and marry.

Rohan Shankar's screenplay seems stretched and many jokes are forced. Even the very reliable Pankaj Tripathi laughs at laughing like a ridiculously dressed guy with golden highlights in his side handlebars and his mustache on the handlebars. There are also many stereotypes, including a pocket acolyte, a child early blackmail, a best friend of Muslim brand and a curious neighbor determined to reveal the secret of the couple. The only truly inspired idea is a joke about Guddu's older brother, frustrated with staying in the marriage race,

By the character of Rashmi's father, Vishnu Trivedi (Vinay Pathak), who pbaded on for a guardian of The morality of Mathura, the film continues over and over on life relations and their opposition to our culture. But frankly, his indignation and finally "progressive" resolution feel overwhelmed and misguided. It's 2019, come on, wake up and look around! Luka Chuppi, directed by Laxman Utekar, is clearly positioned as one of those "comedies of small towns" that are currently raging. But there is very little flavor, texture or authenticity that has fueled better films like Bareilly Ki Barfi or Stree .

The acting game is fixable. Kriti Sanon should be pretty while looking exasperated and she succeeds. Kartik Aaryan delivers an badortment of facial gymnastics while his hair, this hair! -S & # 39; sa slight distraction. A bigger disappointment is to watch talented actors like Vinay Pathak, Aparshakti Khurrana, and especially Pankaj Tripathi, lost in ungrateful and underwritten roles. It is only hoped that Tripathi will have received a huge sum in exchange for his role in this adventure and his embarrbadment in the role of Guddu's clown parent.

But all these problems are out of proportion to the fact that the movie is just not funny. It's a comedy, but at least a handful of decent laughs, all in the second half. I was bored, often confused, and I sincerely miss the low IQ, childish humor of Total Dhamaal from last week. Yes, Luka Chuppi is an illusion. I'm going with one and a half in five.

Rating: 1.5 / 5
