A bride-to-be on a wedding shopping trip finds just what she was not looking for. Love! Will she untie all 'knots' for her newfound pyaar?
Review: He's Sir Hump-a-lot (or at least make out-a-lot). Maybe that's why his nick is 'Humpty'. Typical Delhi ka munda, part-dilwala, part-gunda. So we have a classic 'Dilwale Dulhania Le Jaayenge' in the mix. Fast-forwarded to today (18 years later). Where love is a 'Facebook' post and the generational shift allows you to 'makeout' with your gal and smoke-up with your papaji-in-law-to-be. All is cool!
Yet, at its core, the story retains its roots in the chhotta-chhotta shehers its set in. The 'surround sound' coming from a big-fat-Punjabi -wedding with the usual paajis, vijis, bijis, maajis ... Oh-ji!
The dulhania here is an Ambala girl, with oodles of attitude - Kavya Singh (Alia) - who agrees to marry NRI boy Angad (Sidharth) of her bullying bauji's (Ashutosh) choice. Her demand is a Kareena Kapoor style designer lehenga (even the couture has caught up with time). Kavya takes off to Delhi to buy her shaadi-ka-joda, where she meets Humpty (Varun); their love blossoms over party-sharty (she slips out of *patialas* and downs the 'pegs'), coffee, cuddles and conversations.
