The one aspect that's of paramount importance while making a romantic film is that the love story should've moments that make you smile, make you laugh, shed a tear or two, make your heart pine for the lovers. Shaadi Karke Phas Gaya Yaar does all this half-heartedly.
At a time when Hindi cinema is experimenting with new concepts, K.S Adhiyaman seems to take a step back to the 1970’s when melodramatic sagas dominated the box office.
Ayaan (Salman Khan), a young robust dynamic and handsome man from an upper middle class family who falls in love with a beautiful model Ahana (Shilpa Shetty) who belongs to a very liberal ultra rich family and is from the upper strata of the society. With the passage of time the two get married. Both Ayaan and Ahana are looking forward to a happily married blissful and contented life.
But the future has something else for them. The things starts getting hunky-dory and gradually Ahana discovers that there is vast cultural difference between her upbringing and Ayaan's family. Small differences crop up which eventually lead to major confrontation between the two.
Can down to earth and strong believer of united and happy family, Ayaan maintain his cool and bring his wife and family under one roof'?Will the good sense prevails on Ahana and bridge the differences?
The answers to all these questions can be found in K.S Adhiyaman’s latest offering ‘Shaadi Karke Phas Gaya Yaar ’. K.S Adhiyaman, who previously presented us with mediocre dramatic film Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam, divulges into familiar territory but with new casting in Shaadi Karke Phas Gaya Yaar.
But what indeed is cause for concern is that he treats the subject in an old-fashioned manner. The screenplay is so hackneyed, so conventional that you often wonder whether you're watching one of those old-fashioned, conservative sagas of the 1970s.
There was great potential to experiment with the script but the film resorts to clichés that infuriate your senses. The parivaar, parents wishes, deam songs, the wedding ceremonies are unoriginal and chuckle your sense.
Shilpa proves to be a stunner yet again. Her role doesn’t require her to display histrionics and she remains subdued right through.Salman makes all effort to bring about life to his rather underdeveloped character .
Skip the film to preserve your sanity .
