Super Wealthy Family Heir Rocky & Feisty Journalist Rani Fall In Love While Trying To Reunite A Their Respective Grandparents. Rocky’s Grandpa & Rani’s Grandma Are Soulmates Who Lived A Lifetime In A Week But Drifted Apart.
As Always, The Families Are Chalk & Cheese – The Intellectually Culturally Rich Bengalis Replace Gujjus To Lock Horns With The Punju Family. Rocky & Rani Decide To Swap Places And Stay With Each Other’s Family To Bridge The Differences. Inspired By ‘DDLJ’ & ‘2 States’, Both Try To Impress & Befriend The Families. After A Roller Coaster Ride, Love Triumphs!
The Journey To The Marriage Altar Is Where All The Action Is – With Loads Of Social Message – Patriarchy, Misogyny, Bodyshaming, Gender Equality, Racism, Cancel Culture! Feminism – Karan Johar Packages All This In His Typical Bollywood Style! Rocky’s Kathak Dance With Rani’s Father & Lingerie Shopping With Rani’s Mother Clearly Drive A Message. ‘Talent Is Genderless’ Conversation Or Rocky’s Cancel Culture Outburst – All Are Heartwarming!
Ranveer Entertains With His Energy, Comic Timing & Emotions – But This Is What He Can Do At 3 AM In Morning. Nothing New For Him. Alia Is Vaidehi (Badri Ki Dulhaniya) & Ananya (2 States) In Glamorous Sarees But More Stormier This Time! Ranveer Alia Chemistry Keep You Glued! Shabana Azmi Charms & Shows Real Class – Full Marks To Her. Jaya Bachchan Get To Play Amitabh’s Mohabbatein’s Narayan Shankar & K3G’s Yashvardhan Raichand Patriarchal Roles. Special Mention For The Supporting Cast – All Are Wonderful Especially Tota Roy Chowdhury, Anjali Anand & Aamir Bashir.
Pritam’s Music Is Good But It Is The Retro Music That Impresses The Most. Tum Kya Mile & Kamleya Are Beautiful Songs! Cheers To Karan Johar For His Strong Direction, Playing To Strengths Of His Favourite Alia & Ranveer & All Actors, Infusing The Proceedings With Perfect Tadka Of Humour And Emotions!
Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani – A Great Watch!
