Shashank Khaitan’s ‘Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari’ is a not-bad rom-com with the actors in top form

The film needed more humour and less drama, but Varun Dhawan, Janhvi Kapoor, Rohit Saraf, and Sanya Malhotra make a wonderfully crazy foursome, and their good vibes carry the sometimes-shaky story through to the finish line. That was the short review. A longer analysis follows, and it may contain spoilers.

Varun Dhawan plays the first part of the title of Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari, and Janhvi Kapoor plays the last part. Sanya Malhotra and Rohit Saraf play Ananya and Vikram. The screwball plot goes like this. Sunny loves Ananya, but she says they are not in a relationship but a… situationship. Tulsi loves the super-rich Vikram, but he is pressured by his family to find someone more suited to their status. Due to various off-screen reasons, Vikram and Ananya decide to get married. The heartbroken Sunny and the even-more-heartbroken Tulsi decide to gate-crash the expensive wedding and reclaim their respective lovers. The film begins very well, but after a while the rom-com becomes a sentimental romantic drama, and then there’s some course correction and we get a big, happy-making ending that leaves you with both a silly grin and some mild annoyance at having to endure a lot of leaden stuffing between the good parts.
