Bollywood makes movie on robotics, don't expect anything than a cringe fest. Typically Bollywood will mix story with unnecessary romance,comedy, songs and dance as if there is dearth of romantic-comedy mixed with songs and dance to show. If writer-director were serious about making a sci-fi movie they could have done some wonderful work but no they may have just put keywords like robots, Indian family, drama and etc in ChatGPT to prepare story line and wasted so many resources to come up with this cringe. Even a 5 year old would have more imagination on robots than these grown up adults.

Probably the fake collections of some movies in 2023 has now encouraged these movie makers to produce more such sh***. Wish there is a way to rate 0.

Aryan (Shahid Kapoor) is an robotics engineer working for his aunt Urmila (Dimple Kapadia) whose new Innovation is Sifra (Kriti Sanon), a robot. Aryan doesn't want to get married while his entire family wants him to, as expected he falls in love with Sifra. An harmless experiment conducted by Urmila gives Aryan an excuse to continue his own experiment where he introduces Sifra to his family as his lover. What all misfortunes happen when Sifra tries to mingle with the great Indian family, while they prepare for Aryan and Sifra's wedding forms rest of the story.

For a film that tries to look ambitious, it only aims to be a low hanging fruit. Leaving the brain aside, for those 140mins I kept looking for one decently entertaining scene which the film was devoid of. It is not the logic but the emotions that feel forced and largely superficial, leaving the lead actor with an unlikable character, no matter how much he tries to be entertaining. Ofcourse there is a slight glimpse of "fun" in the climax scene and that's about it. The screenplay lacks the fizz to make this rom-com fun and the generic characters get unfunny jokes to mouth as well. Fair warning, the film ends with the note "to be continued" and I wish they had shown the same conviction while scripting this film, so that we could've got a better and watchable film.

So straight up will say this movie is bad, not the worst movie ever, but definitely wasn't very good.

Story: The plot is quite novel, and I was interested to see how they would handle this topic of robotics and AI given that is a current hot topic. As in all science fiction movies there is an element of suspending disbelief, but this movie took it too far with outrageous and unrealistic twists and turns. I never understood the main characters motivations for wanting to take a romantic relationship with a robot this far.

Acting: Kriti Sanon played her role well in what was a difficult character portrayal. She was the best part of the movie. Shahid Kapoor for an established well-known actor in his 40's gave a very shallow performance relying on overacting. Although he was aided by a pretty terrible script.

Songs: Most of them were remakes, but overall, pretty fun and enjoyable numbers.

Conclusion: If you do want to see this wait for it to come out on streaming. 3/10.
