Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania (2014)

User Review:

Kavya (alia) is a typical Punjabi girl who comes to Delhi for a marriage shopping and here she is spotted by Rakesh aka Humpty (varun). Humpty is a go-getter and though he is carefree he is smart. He decides to win Kavyaâ??s heart but she proves to be tough. Eventually she relents and then she returns to Ambala. But Kavyaâ??s father Mr Singh (ashutosh rana) is very tough and strict. Still, Humpty decides to convince Kavyaâ??s family and he goes to Ambala with his two friends. What happens from there forms the rest.

The director has come up with a romantic storyline and while the presentation was rich, the narrative was quite absorbing. The dialogues were well written. The script was above average and the screenplay made it lot better. The background score was melodious and three songs were worth watching. Cinematography was the main strength to this film. Editing was crisp. Costumes were well designed to suit the royalty while the art department was majestic. Varun Dhawan has given an energetic performance and he scores well, Alia looks cute and her chirpy nature makes her adorable. Both of there chemistry burns fire on the screen.The real showstealer is Ashutosh Rana who was impact creating. Siddharth Shukla was impressive. Kenny Desai was elegant, Gaurav Pandey was good. The others contributed rightly.

Though the concept and premise is quite familiar it is the way the whole thing is packaged and presented which makes it good. The first half goes on a lighter note with elements of comedy, some romance, some action and nice songs. The interval bang was expected but the second half gets into the serious mode with elements of melodrama, some sentiment. But still, the entertainment quotient is kept elevated. Overall, this is a film that reminds one of the yore romcoms like DDLJ and KKHH,its very cute but also very entertaining. A complete family entertainer, a winner!!!
