Imagine a "PANDIT" who discovers that he is, in fact, a MUSLIM - it's a significant revelation, a really big deal. There's immense potential to turn this into dark humor, incorporating slapstick comedy and transforming it into a masala entertainer with a subtle infusion of social messages emphasizing that, fundamentally, nothing matters more than humanity. However, despite its novel intention and an impressive star cast, the movie falters in tightening the script, delivering adrenaline-thumping music, and executing emotional manipulation. The music, in fact, is so mediocre that you might find yourself skipping it during the movie; none of the tracks are even recognizable from TikToks. Viewers struggle to connect with the emotional scenes, so the only saving grace becomes the occasional giggles, the charisma of Vicky Kaushal, and the captivating presence of Manushi Chhillar (though not necessarily praising her acting skills, just admiring her beauty). If it weren't for the fact that it's available for streaming, I might not have bothered watching it at all.
