Could have been an epic movie....

amanbajaj000

Well to start with a movie based on the subject its made on, in itself was enough to drag people to the theaters and that's what it did. The star cast, the plot, performances all top notch but the film lacks in scripting and scree play. It could have been easily another Vicky donor or a chameli ki shaddi for that matter but the screenplay was not in place the movie lacked characters, even after such a great supporting cast, I feel the characters were not written properly. Like we had Anu Kapoor in Vicky donor or a Deepak Dobriyal in the Tanu Weds Manu series, we could have easily got one or two characters written on the same pattern to add more humour to the script. Bhumi Pednekar is a promising actress she has proved again if given a role with content she can manage things effortlessly....long way to go. Ayushman has made his place now in movies like these ...he is impressive and he is becoming a pro with roles like these. In total Shubh Mangal could have been a movie worth keeping in your collection but a weak screenplay makes it a one time watch.

score 5/10
