Rishabh Suri of ‘Hindustan Times’ observes that ‘ A fun first half where every joke lands is ruined by a boring second half that irritates you.’
Having started it once, after ten minutes I had switched to something else. But yesterday I re started & absolutely did not find the premise entertaining. But both the leads are good, so I kept on watching. Phew. Finished it.
It is a good actors going waste. It could have been better. The story being better would have helped.
Songs new & old are good. But those alone cannot lift the script.
