Small works when it stays simple, natural and doesn't try and act big. It becomes endearing when it is unpretentious and stays rooted.
TANU WEDS MANU RETURNS is one such sweet, ribtickling and harmless romantic comedy offering laughs consistently and orderly.
Sequels all over the world have a bad history. They somehow tend to be unimaginative and quite often seem redundant and repetitive. But this sequel does better. Infact much better than its predecessor. It brings freshness to a predictable story and stays funny and entertaining till the very end.
Small town love stories have their own intrigue and have a bizarre way of modus operandi. They seem to lack the basic sensibilities and understanding of a relationship. They appear chaotic, illogical and fogged by insanity. And Anand Rai (director) understands the exact sentiment and skillfully masters the art of showcasing it on celluloid.
This film makes you laugh and laugh out loud. Weird characters, nonsensical situations and stupendous performances makes for some great viewing.
The film succeeds largely because of its brilliant dialogues, great humor and magnificent acting. The dialogues are pure gems and bring the house down on several occasions. The humor, often in the most unexpected scenarios gets you the best laughs.The small town ambience, the natural flair and the desi flavour add warmth and charm to the ongoing proceedings.
The highlights are many and ROFL moments are plenty. The opening scene, though over the top, is extremely funny. The conversations between Madhavan and his father while his mother keeps uttering semi-audible vocals is hysterical.
Almost every second dialogue mouthed by Deepak dobriyal ( Madhavan's friend ) is side-splitting.
The confrontation between the two Kanganas is clapworthy and calls for a thundering applause. The end credits too are craftly done.
The film works largely because it doesn't take itself seriously and stays far away from self-indulgence. Minor contrivances and clichés weigh down the film somewhat, but in all the film manages to stay afloat maintaining the swift and breezy approach, never overstaying its welcome.
A last word for Kangana ranaut. She is exceptional and brings a terrific charm to both her characters. At times, she overshadows everything and in most cases, becomes bigger than the scene itself.
Go watch the film. Absolute paisa vasool
