Cringe. Just good marketing that's all.

I love Punjabi movies and I was waiting for this one. But movie has a really bad message and is cringy. It is almost unbearable how they have reduced the role of a women to just being a mother and otherwise she should feel worthless and accept the man to find another partner.

Orthodox Mentality

The movie has depicted a very sensitive and vulnerable subject of the society in a comical way which is extremely upsetting. The subject of the second marriage for the sake of having a child is portrayed normalized in the movie. Some people say it's just a movie made for laughter and fun, I would say it's just not about that, it's about the emotions of those infertile women and men who face the slander and wrath of the society in their daily lives, will they enjoy this movie??

Making a movie on such a subject would actually hurt the sentiments of these people who are facing these issues in real life and would actually promote the act of second marriage in a positive context if one cannot conceive a child. The way Ammy Virk's character is shown is utterly disappointing, he doesn't care about his first wife's emotions at all, he gets easily convinced for the second marriage as if the bond and affection he shared with her for so many years just disappeared, in that case I would say what's the point of getting yourself into a holy thing like marriage when you can easily move on and forget the love for your partner as soon as you find a new person to entertain yourself.

The only think I find good in the movie is they showed what plight a woman goes through if she has a Saunkan( other wife of the husband) so some people could actually connect and realize how wrong this thing is.

Moreover, I believe the concept of second marriage for the sake of having a child is a negative connotation itself regardless it's a barren women or an infertile men. Marriage is the celebration of eternal love and togetherness between two people, to be there and support each other in every way and not for just having children. Obviously, having an offspring is a biggest blessing in anyone's life, it grows your family but the idea of having it to complete a Marriage is inconsiderate.

Poor, bad taste, uncomfortable watch

Really poor, acting was ok. Songs weren't great. Storyline was really disappointing. This message is so negative and the humour did not make up for it when the film was so uncomfortable to watch. Ammy Virk's character was very unpleasant and the constant light almost comedic references to domestic abuse were poorly done. Made light of a number of serious issues and was difficult to laugh at the humour when the message is so backwards. Even in 2022, this was so disappointing. There was very little storyline and I am frustrated I wasted time watching.
