This is probably the worst "love story" ever! Probably because it is NOT a love story. It's a movie about possession, anger, addiction, and misogyny.
The girl (Preeti) in the movie falls for someone who completely controls her life, chooses her friends for her, takes her out of her class as he wishes, abuses and yells at her and her family, slaps her when she's telling him to remain calm, and much more. She blindly follows him and allows him to do anything he wants. She's an MBBS student, but mute, brainless, expressionless, and with no decision making ability.
A narcissist, rude, alcoholic, drug addict, chained smoker, and misogynist is apparently a great surgeon. He performs surgeries drunk more than half of the times. He threatens and runs behind his house help when she breaks a glass by mistake. He owned his love interest in his head as soon as he laid eyes on her. He won't stop telling the world "woh meri bandi hai". He named his dog Preeti atter she got married to someone else. HE (Kabir) is the "hero" of this movie.
The best friend of the "hero" in this movie is basically his errand boy, who has absolutely no shame in suggesting that his alcoholic, drug addict friend should get married to his sister.
This movie shows us everything that's wrong with Bollywood and how there are people out there who still think that a girl is a commodity who has to be owned at all costs.
Shahid Kapoor's acting is good, Kiara Advani is more like a side kick stone faced girl. The dadi, best friend, and brother have done a good job when it comes to acting. The music of the film is average.
Overall, this movie should never have been made, and people who go and watch this movie should not appreciate it as a great work but should realize that this is sending a very wrong message to the youth, and men especially.
