Shubh Mangal extra cautious, what does Befikre, Pawan and Pooja and MX Player’s newest providing Runaway Lugai have in widespread? They all supplied a beautiful trailer, however the ultimate product didn’t carry out properly. Some trailers hold you hooked till the present or film hits the display. It’s like ordering one thing from a meals menu primarily based on the photographs, simply to get a monotonous, tasteless merchandise that you just devour since you paid good cash for it.
The similar may be stated concerning the expertise of watching the primary three episodes of Runway Lugai and this creator. What seems nice on the floor is boring and malleable. Although the makers name it a comedy-drama, it turns into troublesome to discover a good purpose to chortle. It is painful to listen to jokes like “Yeh marijuana hai, Ya shaadi-hua-na”, and a decide answered “Bring Geeta” and his assistant to Bhagavad Geeta in court docket, “She toh suba kam kar gaya (She The morning went away after finishing its work.) Didn’t assume I might say that, however the repeat telecast of The Kapil Sharma Show is extra enjoyable than this mess.
Rajinikanth aka Rajni (Naveen Kasturia) is a straightforward, loving and harmless son of MLA Narendra Sinha (Sanjay Mishra). Being a newlywed, Rajni hopes to spend time along with his spouse Bulbul (Roohi Singh). But his father is eager to make use of him as a pawn to turn out to be an MP. Sinha leaves Rajni to carry out her responsibility as a decide in a district court docket of Bihar on the evening of her wedding ceremony and thus decides that folks ought to vote in her favor. As a end result, Bulbul runs away, and Rajni’s ever-present desires shatter. Now, how will the common-or-garden son get out of his father’s management and discover his spouse for the story of this MX participant present.
Moments once I laughed within the first three episodes, when the proficient Sanjay Mishra and Naveen Kasturia come collectively. The sheer brilliance of his efficiency dispelled the monotony of the plot. Their language, mannerisms and apparel had been all current. Mishra as soon as once more proves why he’s referred to as one of many gems of the Hindi movie business. Fresh from the success of TVF’s aspirants, Kasturia has performed the position of Rajni as faithfully as she performed the position of UPSC candidate Abhilash. Alas, regardless of their impeccable efficiency, Mishra and Kasturia fail to beat the storm of poor writing and execution.
The fugitive Lugai, in fact, is gentle on its toes, and goals to alleviate darkish and monotonous materials on OTT platforms. But what’s forgotten on this course of is that the viewers has turn out to be smarter, and you can not current something beneath the guise of humor.
