Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui review :
Missed this one in theatres last month and finally caught it today on Netflix. Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui turned out to be a good timepass fare with both Ayushmann Khurrana and Vaani Kapoor at their best. Director Abhishek Kapoor seems to have regained his mojo post the damp squib Kedarnath (2018).
Ayushmann is the typical Chandigarh ka gabru gym instructor who falls for his tenant and Zumba class trainer Vaani. Physical intimacy follows and Ayushmann formally proposes marriage...but hey, theres a hitch and glitch!!
Vaani is a trans-woman who turned female after a surgery. "Trans lady yaani kya? A girl who likes Trans music" goes the joke but the desi laundaa Ayushmann gets wild when he actually understands the truth!! Both Ayushmann and Vaani are called Manu which leads to another punchline "Matlab Manu ne Manu ki hi le li...". Teehee!!
Khurrana has worked hard on his physique as well as the Haryanvi lingo and is reliably good. It is truly brave of Vaani to take on such a challenging role and emerge the show stealer. Indeed, this is one of the finest performances of her career. She not only looks hot but also delivers a knockout act.
I already published my best films of 2021. Need to add Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui to that list.
