Iconic
Moment:
The

'Ali
Baba
&
band
gufa'
to

(Bhumi
Pednekar)

make

till
it
hurts.

Until,

Direction
Shubh
Mangal
Saavdhan
is
a
remake
of
the
Tamil
'Kalyana
Samayal
Saadham'.
This
Ayushmann
Khurrana-
Bhumi
Pednekar
starrer
is
helmed
by
the
same
director-
R.S
Prasanna.
What's
applaudable
about
this
film
is
that
despite
touching
a
sensitive
topic
of
erectile
dysfunction,
it
never
comes
across
as
crass
or
makes
you
squirm
in
your
seats.
Prasanna
presents
the
'gents
problem' in
a
rather
light-hearted
way
with
several
humourous
puns.
On
the
flip
side,
it's
the
second
half
of
the
film
where
his
ship
turns
wobbly
and
gives
you
several
premature
jerks
that
just
doesn't
fit
into
the
story.
While
the
film
begins
on
a
breezy
note
with
plenty
of
'ha
ha',
it's
the
flaccid
climax
which
leaves
you
on
a
disappointing
note.
Performances
Ayushmann
Khurrana
is
perfectly
cast
as
Mudit
and
brings
his
own
charm
to
the
film.
Be
it
coyness
or
exhibiting
his
dilemma
as
a
guy
with
a
problem
with
his
manhood,
the
actor
gets
his
emotions
pitch
perfect.
Bhumi
Pednekar
yet
again
proves
why
she
is
one
of
the
most
promising
talents
in
the
industry.
Together
with
Ayushmann,
their
affable
chemistry
leaves
you
with
a
smile.
Give
Seema
Pahwa
any
scene
and
she
is
bound
to
make
it
a
memorable
one
with
her
acting
prowess!
Brijendra
Kala's
role
will
remind
you
of
that
one
nagging
relative
in
your
family.
Technical
Aspects
Anuj
Rakesh
Dhawan's
cinematography
is
neat
and
simple
and
works
well
with
the
theme
of
the
film.
Ninad
Khanolkar's
editing
could
have
been
a
little
more
sharper
in
the
second
half
of
the
film.
Hitesh
Kewalya's
hilarous
dialogues
deserve
a
special
mention.
Music
Tanishk-Vayu's
songs
flow
with
the
narrative,
but
fall
to
work
as
a
standalone
album.
Except
for
Rocket
Saiyyan,
none
of
the
other
tracks
stay
back
with
you.
Verdict
Shubh
Mangal
Saavdhan
tempts
you
with
its
crisp
humour
and
good
performances,
only
to
leave
you
with
a
limp
climax.
Neverthless,
this
one
still
deserves
a
watch
for
its
fresh
story
that
'stands' out
from
the
crowd
that
releases
every
Friday!
