Why it’s a Weeknight Watch
With soft box office and little lasting buzz, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Right up the alley of anyone with a soft spot for road trips and people who love a story about friendship. It's a road trip, so the detours matter as much as the destination. The friendships are the beating heart of it.
- The mood
- Light and funny.
- The pace
- Light on its feet, at 1 hr 55 min.
- What might put you off
- It's in Hindi, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Skip it if you're after something serious tonight.
Mihika, an investment banker, misses her flight to Delhi and meets Manu Gupta, a very talkative man. In order to reach Delhi on time, she must tag along with him on a road trip and put up with his antics.
