#BadhaaiHo is a laugh riot with a fine concept.


Movie Review: #BadhaaiHo is the story of a family that faces an unusual situation. #NakulKaushik (Ayushmann Khurrana) resides in #Delhi with his family comprising of his father #Jeetender aka Jeetu(Gajraj Rao), mother #Priyamvada(Neena Gupta), grandmother (Surekha Sikri) and younger brother #Gullar(Shardul Rana). Nakul is in a steady relationship with his colleague, #Reene(Sanya Malhotra). One day Jeetu and Priyamvada get intimate when they are reading the poem written by Jeetu that is published in a magazine. 19 weeks later, #Priyamvada falls ill and the doctors inform that she is pregnant. For Nakul and Gullar, the world comes crashing down. Priyamvada is told that if she wants to abort, she should do so within the next 3-4 days. But she doesn’t feel like aborting and decides to go ahead with the pregnancy. #AkshatGhildial, #ShantanuSrivastava and #JyotiKapoor's story is very simple and relatable.#AkshatGhildial's screenplay is a bit subtle. Every situation in the film seems straight out of life and there’s nothing that’s over the top. Akshat Ghildial's dialogues are very witty and funny and would be loved, as again, they’ll resonate with the audiences.
#AmitSharma's direction is decent but he falters in the first half.The reaction of Dadi at this juncture will surely be loved. The film again falls a bit and the intermission point makes it seem like an arthouse film. But it’s in the second half where the film shines the most. The outburst of #Dadi in #Meerut is clapworthy. #AyushmannKhurrana delivers a brilliant performance and his act is spot on.  #SanyaMalhotra is quite decent but has limited screen time. #NeenaGupta is the soul of the film and puts up a very convincing and lovable performance.  #GajrajRao is in top form and steals the show in several scenes. He is like the second hero of the film and fulfills the responsibility ably. #SurekhaSikri is out of this world and her scenes are sure to induce claps and whistles. #ShardulRana gives a wonderful performance and his scene with Ayushmann in the second half is noteworthy. #SheebaChaddha leaves a tremendous impact in a small role.
Talking of music, #AbhishekArora’s background score however is entertaining and has a naughty vibe which suits the film.#SanuJohnVerughese's cinematography is appropriate. #RatheeshUK's production design is straight out of life.#DevRaoJadhav's editing could have been crisper at a few places.
On the whole, #BadhaaiHo is not only a laugh riot but also emerges as a complete family entertainer with emotions.
