Now you can't remove its core theme of playing on gender as the humour and how as a modern society are evolving in its acceptancy, but without this core feature, there is no humour.
All good comedies have layers. This does not.
I believe that the ratings of others are due to its theme, not its entertainment value. My view is that as a comedy it just can't be rather above average because it just isn't funny. The odd smirk that passed my face was shot lived, and there were no out loud moments for me.
Overall, a disappointed attempt to leverage off past, or perhaps even some current views on gender stereotypes, even using alienation off the Indian culture to almost racial effect. Not a fan.
