The film has a wonderful character in the form of a neighbourhood busybody who suspects Guddu and Rashmi arenвЂ™t actually married and is forever snooping on them, but instead of more fully exploiting that hilarious and entirely plausible sub-plot, it is swiftly dealt with so Guddu and Rashmi can have more time to frolic around the apartment and the city, in the throes of romance. There is some mumbo jumbo about the weight of the deception wracking them with guilt, but it simply doesnвЂ™t land. The obsession over getting married is problematicДЄ post shared by Maddock Films starters, it is never convincingly explained why two modern, practical youngsters are in such a tearing hurry to get married all of a sudden, and even if they are, why they canвЂ™t quietly sneak off to a registrar or a neighbouring town and be done with it. Picking live-in relationships as the central plot was a smart hook, but the situations built around it are mostly damp squibs. Anyone who is even vaguely familiar with the politics of India can attest to the question of Indian values as a popular election issue that easily polarises people and earns votes. Luka Chuppi's biggest failing is that it has all the ingredients a director could need to make a sharp, satirical commentary, but the final result is an undercooked comedy that confuses more than charms. He only shows up intermittently but manages to raise laughs every time he opens his mouth, and you wish his talent had been used more fully. But the star of the film is easily Guddu's best friend Abbas, played by Aparshakti Khurana with flair and great comic timing. In the hands of a writer who had paid more attention to her character, Luka Chuppi could have been a great follow-up for Sanon's 2017 sleeper hit, Bareily Ki Barfi. Kriti Sanon is charming and believable as Rashmi. Vinod вЂњGudduвЂќ Shukla (Kartik Aaryan) is the star reporter of Mathura, the small north-Indian town where the party is headquartered.ДЄll the ingredients of a hit, none of the execution Soon, the nation is heatedly debating whether live-in relationships are corrupting the youth of the country. Immediately, a right-wing political party called Sanskriti Raksha Manch - which literally translates to Culture Protection Platform - latches on to the issue, calling live-in relationships an insult to Indian culture.

The film starts with a popular actor being badgered into defending live-in relationships.

Even so, amid the many missed opportunities youвЂ™ll find some heart-warming moments that make you want to root for its confused, star-crossed lead pair.

More than once, debutant director Laxman Utekar calls on the audience to suspend their growing disbelief and go along with a premise that increasingly defies logic - and itвЂ™s a task that gets exhausting after a while. Sadly, it's not a good film - despite trying hard, and coming close every once in a while. Luka Chuppi is a lighthearted, sometimes fun film.
