Such an entertaining Bollywood movie after a long long time. Songs too were pretty entertaining. A typical Karan Johar with display of filthy rich families with very fancy costumes and shot at beautiful locations.
Ranveer <3 was like the heart of the movie, he gives the vibe of a warm, happy person with a good sense of humor. And Alia too vibed with him, her new look with fancy colorful sarees and the yes, the way she laughs aha.
Actors who played the role of Alia's parents, were really good especially who played her father. It was nice to see some new faces. Some of the serious and romantic scenes were so funny. There is no cringe in the movie. Alia and Ranveer are extremely good actors but they lacked chemistry, their relationship felt more of a fling than some serious romantic relationship, like whenever they kissed it felt like they were kissing forcefully or just for fun : )
Shabana Azmi and Dharmendra, oh god, such a cringe old funny couple.
Dharmendra is already such an old actor, showing him dead in the movie was really unnecessary, such a senior, well known and respected actor with great acting kills. Felt really sad that he had to act that part, i felt it was insensitive of the director.
Overall the movie is worth watching, yes worth watching in a theatre.
