This is the second collaboration between the producer and director who created the 2011 film Pyaar Ka Punchnama and stars two of its leads, Kartik Aaryan and Nushrat Bharucha, in the titular roles.
[2][3] Akaash Kapoor (Kartik Aaryan) is a bold and fun-loving young man, while Vani Mehra is a conservative but friendly girl.
The next day, amidst the wedding preparation, Vani finds out that her sister has eloped with another man, who she was in love with but was not accepted by her parents.
Ravi is emotionally abusive and expects Vani to cater to his every need, but pretends to be a perfect husband in front of friends and family.
Her friends meet her at the train station, and Akaash finally breaks down and cries, something he has not allowed himself to do previously.
Vani tells Akaash the truth about her marriage but says she cannot divorce Ravi because her parents won't handle it, especially after her sister eloped.
Akaash tells his friend that he hopes to reunite with Vani and plans to fill her days with adventures and happiness.
Akaash observes how Vani assumes the role of a subservient wife and how her husband ill treats her.
Vani's parents are embarrassed, but she defiantly tells them that her happiness is more important than their shame and leaves the house.
[5] Renuka Vyavahare of The Times of India gave the film three stars, calling it a "strong [...] and moving social drama".
[6] Noted critic Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama awarded the film 3.5 stars, and praised the acting and characterisation, adding that "[t]he movie contains just the right blend of sparkle and spice and is definitely worthy of a watch.
