Why Nobody is Watching Mere Husband Ki Biwi in Theatres?

The movie "Mere Husband Ki Biwi," starring Arjun Kapoor, Rakul Preet Singh, and Bhumi Pednekar, was released at a time when "Chhaava" was gaining all the buzz, and all the theatres were running houseful because of "Chhaava." That's the reason no one was going to theatres to watch "Mere Husband Ki Biwi"; my theatre was empty.

Even the situation has come to such a pass that on the very first day of the movie's release, the makers have to give one free ticket after another because they also know very well what kind of content they have created, meaning they know their mistake.

Now, despite getting free tickets, people have no interest because the makers were not able to create hype even with the trailer, and I swear that its trailer cut was very good. It was hoped that this movie would bring a smile to faces, but let it go.

On top of that, the name was Arjun Kapoor in the lead role, no doubt he had done a good job in Singham Again in a negative shade, but in comedy or emotion, he was acting with a static face, which was very irritating.

Look, the movie is 2h 30m, and the first half means I don't want to say anything about it; I keep my mouth shut about it; let me tell you about it, which was full of slow and forceful comedy.

The movie is of the romantic comedy genre and not even a single scene or a single dialogue has been written in such a way that it makes one laugh.

The story is of Ankur, played by Arjun Kapoor, who has been married before and has also divorced Prabhleen, played by Bhumi Pednekar, and now he wants to marry Antara, played by Rakul Preet Singh.

But the twist is that the first wife has lost her memory now, and she still considers Ankur as her husband and the chaos that happens in the lives of these three. After all, this is the main plot of this film.

Look, this topic had a lot of power but forceful comedy and forceful acting ruined the storyline.

Rakul Preet and Bhumi Pednekar have done a good job. The chemistry of both of them will give you that feeling of catfights. But each of their scenes was written in a highly predictable manner, due to which the fun factor was missing despite their acting being good.

You cannot get emotionally attached to any character in the movie, which is a big minus point. The character writing is such that you won’t even remember them.

The songs are also written in the same way, listen, watch and forget it.

But no doubt, if this movie had come directly on OTT, then it could have recovered its expenses, like some other OTT releases have done, Oops! Ab Kya? Read the review to know how JioHotstar's first series made an impact.

They can't get an audience in theatres, which is the sad part for the makers, but it's the harsh reality.

The rest of the movie had a lot of potential but no presentation. There was a good stand-up comedian in the movie, again, whose potential was not used well. And you all already know the potential of Arjun Kapoor; there is no need to tell.

So overall, it's a below-average movie for me.

There is no vulgarity in the film, nor is there any abusive language. Yes, you can go see it with your family, this will give you a good time pass.

So let's end this topic with a quote that will brighten your day.

Great things happen to those who don't stop believing, trying, learning, and being grateful." ― Roy T. Bennett
