The brief

This family comedy leans hard into generational tech mishaps with Kapil Sharma doing his usual shtick while Neetu Singh brings actual gravitas as the well-meaning grandmother whose social media blunder spirals into chaos. At two and a half hours, it definitely feels bloated with subplot tangents that could've been trimmed, but the cultural clash comedy hits more often than it misses. The wedding-planning hysteria creates genuine momentum in the back half, even if the setup takes forever to get rolling. Perfect for fans of multi-generational Bollywood comedies like "Badhaai Ho" who don't mind a lengthy runtime for their family drama fix.

The verdict

If you love multi-generational Bollywood family comedies and don't mind a bloated runtime for solid cultural clash humor anchored by Neetu Singh's strong performance, this is a satisfying crowd-pleaser. If you prefer tightly paced films or aren't fans of Kapil Sharma's comedy style, the 2.5-hour runtime will test your patience despite the genuinely funny moments.
