Review: "Veere Di Wedding"


Hold off on calling me a sexist till you reach the end of this post. I really tried very hard to make sense out of this movie. I watched it twice last night after returning from the theater. I make perfect sense out of very complex movies, emotionally and logically and I guess thats something which happens to us all after a certain phase of having watched thousands of good movies. But when I can't make any sense out of a movie after watching it several times, I ain't the problem.

Veere Di Wedding is a terrible attempt at recreating a female version of ZNMD. It simply doesn't have a script. The movie seemed like a compilation of random events which had no depth or story. This was basically an attempt at picking everything seemingly 'cool and open-minded' to a deranged typical Indian mind and cramming it all in a 2 hour long massacre to try and make it seem like 'an open minded approach at film making'

Guess what Shashanka Ghosh? Getting Kareena Kapoor to use the 'F-word' in literally every single sentence doesn't qualify the requirements of an 'open-minded movie'. 


A movie about 'Friendship'? 

I would like to apologize to my female readers before-hand but if cringy gang names and excessively dramatic re-unions qualify as 'friendship' to you, you should all go under solo-house-arrest.

Cringy dialogues, old jokes, below-average acting and an inconsequential screen-play; Veere Di Wedding is probably one of the most over-hyped movies in the history of Bollywood. 



There are only a few good jokes in a movie thats listed under the 'Comedy' genre. The only thing that they did right was to get Sumeet Vyas to play Rishab. We know Sumeet from TVF's Permanent Roommates and Tripling. He's an excellent choice for a comic role.

Should you watch it?

If you're a serious movie goer, NO.
