Shuddh Desi Romance Movie Review: A Very Restless Plot

Today's Indian youth couples have no qualms in pursuing the forbidden live-in relationships in the society that portrays the advanced and modern-day thought procedures of the new generation. Over the years, we have witnessed Bollywood in the controversial theme of live-ins in India.

Our today's release Shuddh Desi Romance too deals with the similar subject, but fails to deliver what people are actually looking out for, and that's true love, genuine emotions and feelings. This film is stuffed with a few really confusing characters who claim to be in love and enjoy their favourite hobby of running away from their own marriages, over some stupid and baseless reasons. We aren't taking sides here, but is it really necessary to insult or mock the holy institution of marriage in the name of love?

Story

In Shuddh Desi Romance, we get to meet the innocent-looking Raghuram Shriram (Sushant Singh Rajput). Well! do not go by his name. He's is a super confused chap, really naughty and romantic at heart. Raghu falls in love with the bold Gayatri (Parineeti Chopra), with whom he starts living in together with. The couple seems very much in love, until the day when they decide to get married to each other and Gayatri dumps Raghu on the day of their wedding ceremony.

Then enters the beautiful Tara (Vaani Kapoor), who is actually a matured and sensible woman. Tara is the same woman, who was once dumped by Raghu in the past on their day of wedding. Well! does the plot seem really confusing? If so, there's a lot more boredom coming up in the flick.

Shuddh Desi Romance lacks soul and suffers due to its weak script and characters which fail to strike a chord with the audience. Though funny at times, on the whole, very monotonous. Shuddh Desi Romance could have got rid of some unneccesary scenes and instances, but at the end, it gets stretched to an extent, when the viewers literally start to yawn.

Performances

Sushant Singh Rajput is super cute and retains his boy-next-door charm. He delivers an amazing performance and lives up to our expectations. Parineeti Chopra overracts at times, and does an OK job. Vaani Kapoor is impressive and equally gorgeous.

Verdict

Shuddh Desi Romance is just not worth it. The movie is very superficial and casual on the whole, and dissapoints big time. Even the so-called love and emotions portrayed between the couples in the movie doesn't look passionate and genuine enough to endure.
