‘Pati Patni Aur Woh Do’ Movie Review: A Fun Watch

A Fun Watch

BR Chopra started the successful comedy franchise Pati Patni Aur Woh in 1978. His daughter-in-law Renu and grandson Juno kept the family flag fluttering when the Kartik Aaryan-led spiritual sequel fared well at the box-office in 2019. With a fresh cast in the third instalment piloted by Ayushmann Khurrana, Rakul Preet Singh, Sara Ali Khan and Wamiqa Gabbi in the main roles, will writer-director Mudassar Aziz pull it off again? Lehren takes a look.

Pati Patni Aur Woh Do Critic Movie Review:

Trade analysts say, the film has no buzz. But the content is fun and fizz.

It takes a short while to get used to forest officer Prajapati Pandey (Ayushmann Khurrana) and his over-the-top decibel. But by the time “Casanova” leopard catcher nets his “tenduyi” and reaches home to wife and TV journalist Aparna Trivedi (Wamiqa Gabbi), his effervescence catches on. The viewer is all in as writer-director Mudassar Aziz rolls out the chuckles with Prajapati stepping in to help distressed collegemate Chanchal Kumari (Sara Ali Khan), unwittingly letting loose a string of misunderstandings.

Aparna, Chanchal and Prajapati’s colleague Niloufer Khan (Rakul Preet Singh) go round and round with Aziz and co-writer Ravi Kumar amping the fun when cop Dharmendra Singh (Vijay Raaz) stomps all over with his moral policing and rate card on the ready. Pack it with politician Gajraj Tiwari (Tigmanshu Dhulia), his son Sunny (Vishal Vashishtha) and the father’s hunt for the mystery girl in his son’s life, a talkative aunt (Ayesha Raza), an effeminate peon in the forest office and Prajapati’s Boss DK digging his ear with his finger, for amusement at every turn.

Mudassar spares no one. Gays, dharam parivartan, caste, he takes a swipe at everything with comic irreverence. Sunny and Bobby also turn into names that bring a smile.

Ayushmann Khurrana carries off Prajapati’s vanity and dilemma with much comic flair while saucy Wamiqa and spunky Rakul Preet sprinkle glamour and spice around him. Sara, as the girl caught in a situation, is comfortably comic while garrulous Ayesha Raza brings the house down. The professional ease of Tigmanshu Dhulia and Vijay Raaz adds value.

Under two hours is the perfect length for a comedy that’s conventional but keeps going without flagging.

What did I miss? Good music, for sure. Wish T-Series and the BR Chopra family would invest in memorable music to keep the audience better entertained instead of time-pass tunes that nobody takes home with them.

Pati Patni Aur Woh Do – Watch Or Not? Watch and smile. It’s a relief from the intensity of real life.

Pati Patni Aur Woh Do Movie Review Score Rating: 3 out of 5 (i.e. 3/5)
