Review Of 'Band Baaja Baaraat': Family Entertainer With Punjabi Beats!

Director: Maneesh Sharma

Cast: Anushka Sharma, Ranveer Singh

Genre: Comedy, Romance

Music: Salim-Sulaiman

Rating: ***

Director Maneesh Sharma has churned out a real family entertainer from Yash Raj films. Starring Anushka Sharma of Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi fame and newcomer Ranveer Singh, the movie explores the ‘behind-the scene’ sequences in the big fat Indian weddings.

Anushka Sharma plays the middle class girl Shruti with focused ambition and Ranveer Singh plays the careless fun loving guy Bitto. Both of them have just passed out from Delhi University’s Hans Raj college. Even though, they are totally different in character, they end up working together as Wedding Planners. They manage the big fat weddings of Delhi and organize everything required for such weddings. Throughout their business dealings, they face lots of ups and downs and keep fighting with each other but finally they explore their love for each other.

Music director duo Salim Suleiman has given some peppy Punjabi beats in the much popular number ‘Ainvayi Ainvayi’. The first half of the movie is full of fun and in the second half the viewers will get to see some twists and turns.

The youth faces give freshness to the movie, which is a romantic comedy. It is a complete family entertainer and worth watching at the weekend.
