According to the movie's perspective, marriage will break the bro-code between besties Sonu and Titu. The two chaddi buddies aren't lovers but they are emotional soul mates. Director Luv Ranjan goes a step further - the entire film is about a friend trying to break up his best friend's marriage because he believes that the woman his friend is marrying is a fraud. Sonu has no proof that Sweety is problematic. He says, it's just a feeling. She is, in his words, too good to be true.
The actors - Kartik Aaryan, Sunny Singh and Nushrat Bharucha - try to make this juvenile bromance versus romance drama convincing. Nushrat is saddled with an underwritten character. Kartik works hard to make Sonu likeable but it's an uphill climb. Sunny is the best among the three - he has an easy, unassuming presence. I just wish his character had more spine.
In once scene, Sweety tells Sonu that dosti aur ladki mein hamesha ladki jeetti hai. But in the Luv Ranjan's universe, women don't stand a chance.
