Badhaai Ho is a coming of age dramedy where a couple in their 50s get to know that they are expecting a kid. They find it difficult to convey this news to their grown up sons. The sons are shocked and embarrassed and start avoiding their parents.
The film has some really comic and emotional moments. Neena Gupta and Gajraj Rao are the real stars. The chemistry they share and the way they talk to each other with just expressions is commendable. The director has given the best scenes to Neena Gupta and Gajraj Rao and like veteran actors they have excelled in every scene.
Ayushman Khurana is good as the older son who never troubled his parents. His love for his family, especially his mother, can be seen easily.
Sanya Malhotra has done full justice to her small role. In a scene in the film she asks Ayushman.. "Hum log jab 50 ke honge to kya Floyd ki jagah Anoop Jalota suna karenge?" If only the writer knew that after Big Boss 12, Anoop Jalota was going to become the idol of men of all age groups, they wouldn't have added his name.
There was this dialogue in the film when Ayushman Khurana shouts at his brother
"Apna kamra chahiye.. Apna kamra chahiye.. Kuch saal aur nahi so sakta tha Mummy Papa ke beech mai"
Every single person in the audience was laughing in this scene.
The film has many such scenes and dialogues where you will laugh your heart out or feel emotional for the characters.
The film has earned around 30 Crores in 3 days and is going to become another surprise blockbuster of 2018.
In a line, Badhaai Ho is a complete family entertainer which shows the love and bond different members of the family share with each other. Must-watch
