Tanu weds Manu was a refreshing with the right blend of emotion and comedy. So does the sequel live up to the expectation ?
First things first. The opening credits and the first scene where Tanu and Manu argue about their not-so-happy- married life are something you should not missed. What follows is a laugh riot courtsey some very very witty dialogues and superb acting by Deepak Dobriyal as Pappi. He is simply brilliant and some of his lines and the way he delivers them will make you LOL all over the floor . He single handedly manages to set the pace for the movie. Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub as Chintu the over-enthusiastic lawyer is a welcome addition to the cast. Kangana Ranaut by far is the best actress in India presently. You throw any role at her and she will end up doing it so naturally. She looks and fits into the Hariyanvi "Datto" character so well. Not even once one remember the original Tanu while watching her. Full marks to her (and the make up team) for that!
But the real problem is the plot. To start off with the entire Mental hospital plot (although very entertaining) is not believable. There isnt enough emotional connect between Manu - Datto to get together in the first place and Manu - Tanu to come back together once again. The end is predictable and something that most of us would not relate to. For eg. Queen had the perfect ending when she refuses to go back to him. Here Manu's decision to go back to Tanu seems illogical and irrational and lacks the emotional connect needed to do so. The lack of "Bappi" and his jokes and the lack of a good plot hurts the second half which after a point of time is super drag. You just don't feel for any of the character.
Songs are good, my favorite being the "Swagger" song.
All in all the supporting actors do their job to make us laugh but the lack of a good plot fails to emote.
Rating: *** (You can skip this one in the theaters)
P.S. Do watch the first part though if you havent watched it yet:
