the film is Hindi 2019 Rom-Com, telling the story of a 50yr old man (Ajay Devgn) falling in love with a 26yr old women (Rakul Preet Singh), and the lies and deceptions that ensues when his family and ex-wife (Tabu) disapproves this relationship
the films biggest weak point is its script, while the merit of the initial plot is understandable the execution of it over the run time makes its hard pill to swallow, the main relationship never felt organic to me and it was a cornerstone requirement for such a film that basis itself on the hurdles of such a relation. when the relationships are shown to the audience with a shallow understanding it becomes hard to sympathise to the leads hurdles that comfort.
Tabu was the highlight of the film I guess its a very unanimous choice for most viewers as her chemistry with Ajay Devgn is in essence what prevents the film from slogging. this chemistry covers the lack of fleshing out of the script regards to their past yet makes it all so believable that they once were together.
the film has its moment and isn’t a slog to get through but in many aspects trimming and fleshing out of the story might have done wonders for it.
