Happy Phirr Bhag Jayegii s a goofball, lightweight comedy, livened up by an energetic leading lady, a solid supporting cast and a plot that doesn't lose steam through its 2 hour 16 minutes run time.
While the plot twists in this mad caper is predictable, what finally wears down this comedy is its interminable, long-winded length. But it has some smart, sassy one-liners. They don't try too hard at the humour and that has its own appeal. You are likely to walk out of cinemas with a smile on your face, but that smile could have developed into a hearty grin had the length been snipped by at least 20 minutes. But it's still a jolly ride for the viewers.
All said and done, Happy Phirr Bhag Jayegi is one of those films in which you can have fun with your entire family. It has moments which will make you laugh even if you're watching it for the nth time on television years from now. Whatever is the fate of this film, I want a spin-off film of Bagga & Kaylula.
On the whole, HAPPY PHIRR BHAG JAYEGI turns out to be a worthy sequel. Despite the loose ends, it manages to make audiences laugh thanks to its funny dialogues and situations, clean humour and bravura performances. At the box office, it will turn out to be a decent fare.
HPBJ is just as good as HBJ, if not better. It has good music too and for a change, the songs actually add value to the storytelling process. This film takes the ideas of the original and it adds a zany new twist to the proceedings. The goofball humour gets a little over-the-top at times, but that's exactly what works for this madcap comedy.
