Why, why would anybody watch a film about condoms and household planning and AIDS management that’s nothing however a cringe-fest from begin to end?

High-school move out, unemployed Lucky (Aparshakti Khurana) falls in love with Rupali (Pranutan Behl) from an prosperous background. What she sees in him is a thriller, however then with lovers who is aware of, proper? It takes an enormous amount of cash to please the sneaky dad (Ashish Vidyarthi). The solely approach out for Lucky and his mates is to dream up a get-rich-quick concept of ​​a banana that features a theft, a complete pile of condoms, and a city the place a spirit cannot see the prophylactic with out the colour pink.

According to the makers of this enterprise, males are unable to purchase ‘suraksha’ off the counter at the moment (apparently only a chemist’s store, run by a crappy man, within the fictional Rajnagar that appears loads like Banaras). Is).

Take these embarrassing issues (condom packets) out of my sight, bellows a fellow (Jameel Khan, so good in ‘Gully’) who could be very ‘disillusioned’ as a result of his spouse isn’t pulling out. ‘Hai Ram,’ says his equally dismayed spouse. Voila, the rubs change arms. Husband and spouse get it. So do the opposite residents. Lucky and co begin counting their cash, and everyone seems to be completely satisfied. Until someday…

There’s no hurt in turning Burmese concepts into socially related comedy, which is what the ‘helmet’ thinks about itself. But it requires sensible. The movie comes throughout like these loud, unassuming sitcoms that really feel loose-fitting collectively.

Aparshakti has made a mark in good movies; So are Ashish Verma and Abhishek Banerjee. Here they proceed from conditions reminiscent of, as A demonstrates: males in an grownup movie whispering in anticipation of a contented ending; Exhibit B: a brothel madam who lectures about clients refusing to make use of condoms; Exhibit C: A baddie affected by a ‘unhealthy illness’ as a result of he did not put on a ‘helmet’ at his acceptable finish, and so on.

‘Dawaai se like ke bhaujaai tak, sab ki expiry date hoti hai’. Got it, in a single.
