Chandigarh kare aashiqui reviews & box office thread (on NETFLIX) - Page 3

Good lighthearted movie 🍿

Enjoyable and fun.

Obviously taking a hot girl as trans girl is an issue , coz it's easier to go with the story as oppose to trans girl who is not that much passable as cis women , not to add a complex issue of telling it upfront that you are trans before going the full way which is just touched and gone.

That said it's ok and entertaining , you fall for vaani character and like it

3.25 Crore on first day.

Opening is lower than Antim and Tadap. But more than Satyameva Jayate 2 and Bunty Aur Babli 2.

Audience would accept Ayushmann's social comedy drama films as long as they are not based on taboo subjects.

Badhaai Ho and Bala worked at the box office was because old age pregnancy or male pattern baldness are family friendly topics.

Unfortunately erectile dysfunction, homosexuality and LGBT are still not family friendly....the reason Shubh Mangal series didn't make much money. The same would happen with this film.

My review:

Packaged like an entertaining Hindi film, CKA is much, much more. It's a step in the right direction for a certain section of the community which has been marginalized, and which hasn't found scope for representation in mainstream Hindi movies. But more than that, it's a movie with a big, big heart. It's actually very well-packaged, entertaining, and emotional. It's not preachy or didactic. It's a commercial movie with a strong message.

My only problem with the movie is it relies on simplistic plot twists to resolve the inherent conflict at the core of the story. The change of heart doesn't feel authentic on Ayushmann's character's part.

The performances are really good, and both Ayushmann and Vani sparkle with vulnerability and honesty. Vani especially is a treat to behold.

Overall, I think it's a must-watch.
