Bewakoofiyaan…..Simple & Sweet!

A simple, sweet, feel good movie, that ends as smoothly as it began.  The story is about a Mohit (Ayushmann Khurana ) & Mayera (Sonam Kapoor), both professionals who are in love and want to be married. However the biggest hurdle is Mayera’s father, V.K Sehgal, (Rishi Kapoor) a Retired, Indian Bureaucrat who wants to ensure that his daughter is married to a financially secure boy. He seems to detest the fact that his daughter's Boyfriend has a lower salary than her and agrees to give consent for the marriage only if Mohit passes his tests. Amidst the various hilarious checks/tests Mohit loses his job and that’s where the story takes a turn, adding excessive burden on the relationship and culminating to a breakup. All’s well that ends well, the lovers are united in the end, like most “feel good” love stories in the sweetest way.

Mr. Rishi Kapoor is the highlight of the movie, there are comical strains given to his character both in his portrayal of an honest retired Indian bureaucrat, as well as a protective father. His performance is more than commendable and so genuine, one talented actor who at this stage of his career has been very lucky with variety of roles he gets to play. I watched this movie with my semi-retired Dad and we could both relate to a lot in the movie, hence extra laughs from our side.

I personally liked the art direction and detailing in the movie.  Even the smallest details that would go missing to your eyes, screamed I am real. For instance, the look of a bureaucrat’s home, the placement of picture frames on the table, all so detailed and thought through. So kudos! to the perfectionist who caters to perceptive audiences. I am going to end saying sweetsii, simplesii, cutesii picture hai J
