Surprisingly incoherent and boring

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

The Indian Express reported that this film is a modern day version of Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge. This is a complete lie as this film was a waste of time and money and made me upset when I left the theaters. The characters are nothing like Raj and Simran and the story is not anything special that can keep you enjoyed in your seats. Basically Varun Dhawan plays a guy who falls in love with a girl, played by Alia Bhatt. The only problem is that she is set to married an NRI. How Dhawan tries to win Bhatt's heart forms the plot. The characters are quite annoying to watch and the movie shows no sign of paying a tribute to Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge. Apart from the story, some of the songs such as Samjhwan, Lucky Tu Lucky Me, Saturday Saturday and D se Dance are great to listen to and get your feet tapping a little. Forget what the critics said as this, in my opinion, is not that great of a film. Avoid at all costs.

I don't know why critics are all over this movie and calling it a horrible failed attempt at copying DDLJ. For me, Humpty Sharma ki Dulhaniya was a fun packed adventure. Having lived in Delhi and Chandigarh, i totally got the inside jokes and mannerisms. I am a big fan of Alia and I think she is the cutest, but Varun Dhawan was even more entertaining and awesome. And his friends were the best. Only people who have such friends can relate to the cheer they bring to one's life.The best part of the movie is that it has the right mix of humor, show off, witty dialog and still manages to stray close to reality. If you think most of the things shown are out of the ordinary and would never happen in real life, please get out more. There are a lot of trust worthy people in this world once you get to know them better.I guess the critics need to open their minds and learn to take it easy. Movies are made to cater to the public need's and demands for entertainment, thats how Bollywood makes money. If you only want artistic skills and originality while sucking out humor and fun, please go watch a documentary on rich vs poor. Do not watch this movie if you are a depressing downer and want to stay that way, you have been warned !

HUPTY SHARMA KI DULHANIA is a typical Dharma Productions movie. Fat Indian weddings, mehenga designer lehengas, meaningless interrupting songs and a lot, A LOT, of melodrama.Eight minutes into the film and we have seen a boy selling question papers for kisses from girls and the female lead convincing her Dad to buy a lehenga on a dining table from which her divorced sister gets up and leaves because she chose a wrong man for herself. The guy who goes around flirting and kissing girls becomes emotional at a tragic DDLJ scene and feels guilty on a traditional lecture given by the female lead.The whole group and the father of the boy start making contributions for a completely strange girl.The love that was in the form of a bud until late, without any further development shows an intense bed scene. I mean, how can we not have a bed scene, it has been one full hour! The minor amount of logic they were making in the first half goes on decreasing exponentially in the second hour. The climax is unbelievably stupid. There is no spoiler in this film, we have seen it all in Dilwaale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai and all such Blockbusters.Varun Dhawan famous for his flawed imitation of loud actors like Govinda was heavily annoying in the few starting scenes. Alia Bhatt who had been a surprise packet in the last two movies was strictly average in this flick. The supporting cast, however, is pretty strong.Music is below average. Direction and cinematography needed much more attention. Editor must be fired quickly.The movie, however illogical and irritating it may be at times, does have it spots of tickles. Despite brutally filled with clichés, the movie has its cheerful moments. The chemistry between the lead pair is warm(if not sizzling). You may give this movie a miss but you wouldn't be wasting your time much if you have nothing else to do. A generous five-and-a-half-out-of- ten for the rare freshness.
