Non-Hindi speaking audience - You'd love this film too.Basic plot - Two newlyweds find themselves inadvertently separated from their husbands after their respective weddings because of a confusion and then starts what you'd call a mix of an 'investigative thriller' and a comedy-drama with social commentary that's subtle and not in your face. Great acting, sound design and it's been shot well, but the writing in this film takes the cake. Set in 2001 (but still relevant in several ways) the film talks about the society's belief in how the Ghoongat/Veil protects the honor of women but ends up throwing the lives of the women in this film in disarray, how dowry is discussed like you'd brag about your child outscoring the neighbor's kid in school, how girls are taught to play a certain role in the society from very early on. The lead actors are barely in the film together but you still want things to work out for them and the payoff hits. If you enjoyed watching films of the Ayushmann Khurrana formula, this is a movie that you must not miss, especially now that it's online. This is a fun movie, but also deep in several ways! If you're in the minority like me and haven't watched this yet, please do.
