When was the last time you heard
a Bollywood movie being made about something related to sex and didn’t end up
becoming a vulgar stuff or pure crass? Can’t remember, right? Well, I don’t
remember a single movie except Vicky Donor where a subject has been treated
with maturity and sense. After coming out of “Shubh Mangal Saavdhan” which is
based upon the erectile dysfunction referred as gent’s problem in the movie, I
felt so good about the way in which the movie has been made making you, as
viewer, proud of the fact that such a subject has been treated so respectfully
and sympathetically.
The movie starts with how the boy
is behind this girl who finally agrees to marry him. The parents also get
involved and the love marriage is turned into arranged very appropriately. Just
before few days of marriage, the girl finds about the erectile dysfunction
problem with the boy and becomes serious about the issue. She wants him to get
it treated while he is also wanting to do the same but finds it challenging as
he feels that girl is compromising at her end and the families aren’t supporting
him the way he wished they would. This plot has been so convincingly dealt with
that I felt after completing the movie that I could have watched it so easily
with my parents. If that’s what the director and dialogue writers have been
able to do, then the movie has won somewhere.
Another great part of the movie
is the conversation between the mother and the daughter. The kind of frank
conversations shown in the movie between both the characters tells us a lot
about the modern India where such stuffs can be shared so friendly between
parents and daughter/son. Seema Pahwa, in the role of the frank mother, has hit
a century in this movie. SMS would have been incomplete without her for sure.
The climax isn’t treated nicely which makes you feel dissatisfactory in the
end. If only climax would have been closed down with the same effectiveness,
this movie could have become an unforgettable movie of the contemporary cinema.
Ayushmann Khurana has performed very well flawlessly. Bhumi Pednekar has acted
in the same natural way as she does. All the other actors in the movie are
terrific. Special mention to Brijendra Kala in the end! He is also hilarious in
the movie. I give this movie 3.5 star out of 5. It is a laugh-riot.
Thanks.
