Bollywood is so stubborn and intransigent when it comes to investing in a good story... I don't understand why in the land of Rabindranath Tagore, rk narayan, Vikram Seth still there's no recognition and monetary compensation to writers and lyricist... Producers seriously need to change this attitude...

This is one of the new types of Indian comedies that uses a lot of silly sound effects in the background that make the movie even sillier than the childish script can do. I guess this type of offering on Netflix is really targeted towards increasing the reaching of its global presence. It's not a movie that I could even finish....it was just too stupid!

Ginny Weds Sunny review :

After Lootcase earlier this year, Ginny Weds Sunny is a rare satisfying OTT release. It is a light hearted rom com with enough punchlines and a gorgeous looking Yami to keep you engaged throughout its two hours plus of run time.

Ginny (Yami) wishes for love marriage only and hence, turns down all marriage proposals until Sunny (Vikrant Massey) secretly teams up with Ginny's mom (Ayesha Raza Mishra) to win her hand in marriage.

Avoiding sub-plots, debutant director Puneet Khanna keeps the narrative simplistic with minimum characters relying more on humorous dialogues and chemistry between the lead pair. While he does succeed in building humour in his execution, the chemistry between Yami and Vikrant is not up to the mark here.

Vikrant Massey, an otherwise first rate actor and indie cinema favourite these days, appears tad uncomfortable as Sunny and one misses the energy of young Ranveer Singh in Band Baaja Baaraat (2014) which was in similar mould. Ahem!!

On the other hand, Yami Gautam not only looks yummy but makes Ginny her own by pitching in a fabulous performance. The supporting cast is also reliably effective.

To sum up, Ginny Weds Sunny has its share of fun and can make for a decent weekend watch. Give it a try!!
