Movie review: Don't do the 'bewakoofi' of watching Bewakoofiyaan

I would recommend you all not to do any ‘Bewakoofiyaan' of witnessing this drama.Ratings-**Stars- Ayushmann Khurrana, Sonam Kapoor, Rishi KapoorDirector- Nupur AsthanaMusic director- Raghu DixitJob crisis has been a reason behind many break-ups but whoever has dealt with it patiently, has survived forever. Director Nupur Asthana of ‘Mujhse Fraaandship Karoge' fame takes the plot inspired from the recession times and narrates the tale of one such love story struggling amidst all.But unfortunately ‘Bewakoofiyaan' turns out to be a turn-off and non-influential love story, which takes us to just another tour of much witnessed Delhi and displays good fashion lines through Sonam Kapoor. Mohit Chadha (Ayushmann Khurrana) is an influential senior executive at an airline firm and has a girlfriend Mayera Sehgal (Sonam Kapoor). His life is all set with no problems whatsoever until he comes across Mayera's father V.K. Sehgal (Rishi Kapoor), an IAS officer, who is as strict as a military officer.Situation goes worse and our main protagonist loses his job. Now, how will he ‘patao' the ‘khadoos baap' and how many false stories will he create to sustain his relation with Mayera? That is how Nupur unfolds this tale which should have been dealt delicately but is summarized and ruined with a bit of over acting, focus on just good looks, and caricature sort of characters. The fun quotient, which one could have expected from the presence of Rishi Kapoor and Ayushhmaan Khurrana, lacks in the flick. There are few occasions, which prevents you from yawning, while watching this movie.Nupur, however, tries to juggle out the frustration of a sacked senior executive who is over-confident and finds a trainee job below his integrity. Just when we are brought closer to analyse the psychology of such people, Nupur throws us back with the same old melodrama. You get irritated by the kiddish behavior of an IAS officer who starts loving video games and then ultimately is lured towards new job profile. The editing at some occasions goes so wrong that you are unable to judge the current scene.The idea to emphasize over the love element, which is considered as a solution to all the problems in the world, just remains an idea which couldn't change your life. (Sorry, for taking the tagline!) You don't feel pity anymore for jobless Mohit. The lies chain connecting with each scene tickles you at some moments but doesn't last for long. You are once again taken to the lanes of Delhi and Gurgaon amidst all and finally want to get out of it as soon as you can. Finally, it is our two male actors who with their hate-turned-friendly chemistry provide us a little comic relief.Ayushmann Khurrana is great but it's time for him to take different roles. He looks repetitive but amuses us at most of the scenes. Sonam Kapoor, who is at her fashion best, gives a good support to our male protagonist but nothing adorable comes from her.Ultimately, it's the evergreen Rishi Kapoor who rules in this drama. He represents a strict and arrogant man and shows how such men really look. Music by Raghu Dixit isn't pleasing while background score by Hitesh Sonik is just OK. I'll go with two stars and would recommend you all not to do any ‘Bewakoofiyaan' of witnessing this drama.
