Bollywood is suffering from huge crisis of creativity and Jabariya Jodi is the finest example of it.
prafullasrivastav11 August 2019
Direction: There were huge expectations from debutant director Prashant Singh as he is coming with some new concept. However he failed to maintain the momentum in the second half. First half was somewhat better and entertaining one.

Performances: "Hasee toh Phasee" famed jodi paired as Jabariya jodi this time. Both were good in their characters till first half. In second half, they lost the track. Some great performances by supporting star cast. Javed Jaffrey did good job as Hukun Dev Singh. Sanjay Mishra was good in the role of Duniya Lal. Aparshakti Khurana did another good supporting role as Santosh AKA Sanno.

Script: Sanjeev K jha came from Bihari background so he want to use local issue of Groom kidnaping as central idea of his script. Topic wise script was good in chunks, not as whole. After interval, script was running in rounds and round look like you will get the flavor of daily soap.

Music: Again creativity issue with music section as lack of originality. Two old superhit songs "Khadke Glassy" and "Zila Hilela" reprised by various music directors and singers.

Box-Office: On opening day it has earned 3.15 crores. On 2nd day, slight jump due to weekend and it has earned 4.25 crores. Life time collection will be in the range of 30-35 crores based on how word of mouth will impact footfall.

Last words: If you have watched all recent released movies, i can recommend this movie to overcome boredom.

TAKES OFF ON JABARIYA NOTE BUT ENDS ON TYPICAL NOTE...
SAMTHEBESTEST9 August 2019
Warning: Spoilers
JABARIYA JODI REVIEW :-

Jabariya Jodi was promised to be a roller coaster ride of Desi Entertainment from the promos. As promised, it fulfilled the quota of Entertainment along with desi humourous comedy and engaging narrative. The expectations bar was raised in the first half as Characters, Local Humour, Accent, Comedy, Romance, Songs everything was going perfectly and then fell down towards the end.

Jabariya Jodi starts with a Colourful Childhood of Abhay and Babli when they fall in love of each other and then gets separated. In present day Abhay (Siddharth Malhotra) is a Bihari Thug who forcefully manages to get people married who ask for dowry and Babli (Parineeti Chopra) is Bindass, fearless girl in Patna. Hero, Heroine meets in Friends wedding and then thier lovestory takes off on flying note and then expectedly there is twist in the story. Overall Jabariya Jodi is Convincing and decent which can attract Mass audience set in North but the same story loses conviction in the 2nd half because of stretch and predictability. Parineeti Chopra as Babali Looks Pretty, Siddharth Malhotra is Charming and supporting cast adds tremendous laughters. From Musical point of view Jabariya Jodi doesn't disappoint at all. Each amd every song of the film works, special mention to ''Zilla Hilella', 'Dhoonde Akhiyaan' and 'Khadke Glassy'. Dialogues are punchy and are flavoured with Bihari cream. Humour and fun is there too. After engaging and flawless entertainment in first half, the Screenplay falters in 2nd half and especially in the Happy climax.

Prashant Singh as director succeeds in bringing desi-ness into mainstream entertainment but he forgot that mainstream factors looks so repeatative to regular moviegoers now days. Something different from regular tutions might have worked better. Let it be, Overall Jabariya Jodi still finds enough proportions of Desi Entertainer and Desi Lovestory to be called an Average Drama and thankfully it doesn't go too low to disappear. Keep it simple and make a way to your nearest theatres to catch Jabariya Pair of Abhay and Babali.

RATING- 5/10*

I don't know what was going on in the film
simran_benz10 August 2019
Warning: Spoilers
All that the female lead wanted to do in this film was to get married as soon as possible like there was nothing else left in her life to do. And the male lead was in this misconception that because of his father's attitude he may turn out to be a bad husband and he did not want to get married. I was disappointed Rating only for the treatment ! even the music was not great

All those 10 or 9 ratings are paid ratings
johnnash-1842013 August 2019
It's a cliche movie. Siddhartha can't act and Parineeti just acts like she did in first movie. Not so comedy, no plot only same old romance.

Bollywood director needs training
cyriljoy17 August 2019
You can't expect a cliché movie like this to become a hit, it's simply terrible, in the end if you are just going to give us a lesson, please understand we are not some school students who needs these lessons, so if you are planning to watch a movie, better change it and don't watch it

Hilariously Enjoyable!
SinhaSomesh9 August 2019
#FinalVerdict..

Balaji Motion Pictures has a winner on hands, yet again! Although it rides on Bollywood cliches but provides plenty of laugh and thus, entertains big time with top notch acts (Siddharth Malhotra & Parineeti Chopra).

The best part about Jabariya Jodi is that it succeeds in bringing the house down. Sanjeev K Jha's screenplay, who also hails from Bihar, entwines both humour and emotions in a subtly efficacious way with Raaj Shaandilyaa's side-splitting dialogues provide non-stop laughter and non-stop entertainment. Kudos!

Brilliant is the word for the additional screenplay & dialogues by Neeraj Singh. For the comical & emotional scenes, the massy dialogues compliment the mood very well. For a debutant director, Prashant Singh, to keep the audiences hooked from start to finish is Estimable! WOW!

Vishal Sinha's cinematography (Perfect), Dev Rao Jadhav's editing (Crisp), Rajat Poddar's production design (Realistically beautiful), Joel Crasto's background score (Dramatic) and Tanishk Bagchi, Vishal Mishra & Sachet-Parampara's music uplift the theme and mood of the film.

Chandan Roy Sanyal and Aparshakti Khurana don't give you an impression that they're acting and stand shoulder to shoulder with the lead actors. Virtuoso! Sanjay Mishra is a respected gem of an actor! Jaaved Jaaferi looks macho. Fantastic! Mohit Baghel is quite funny and steals the show.

Siddharth Malhotra suits the part perfectly. He's the soul of Jabariya Jodi. His Abhay looks totally convincing. Parineeti Chopra's Babli is tailor-made for her and she shines throughout with amazing confidence. Neeraj Sood, Sheeba Chadha & Gopal Dutt deserved more screen time.

To sum up, Jabariya Jodi is a laugh-riot & an entertainer all the way, targeted at the hardcore masses. What really works for the film is its massive star cast and also the skilled performances by each and every member. Go watch it!

Not logical neither entertainer, faltoo movie !!!
Hazel_T11 August 2019
Oh boy, I was waiting to get out of the hall. It's a bad movie, does not even fit the category of good time pass. Thank god for good looking eye candy Siddharth with the stuble and expressive eyes. Parineeti is such a great actress , but this movie is really bad. She really needs a make over. The burgandy hair color, misfitting clothes and loud clumsy kajal made her look very very poor. She needs to fix her outlook. It was horrible in this movie. So, don't waste time and money on this movie. Watch it when Amazon or Netflix will streem it!

So bad that the script deserve a trash can
santoshambekar195 October 2019
I really petty those who have reviewed and rated this title with 10 stars. They really need to consult doctors. This movie is so bad even a trash can is not sufficient. The acting by both Siddharth and parineeta is pathetic. There's no logic in the script and movie just starts and goes haywire. it's a perfect way of wasting couple of hours. Definitely not recommended.

Tasteless Romantic Drama That Can Annoy You / 3 Stars
nairtejas22 June 2020
Jabariya Jodi (Forcible Matrimony) dilly-dallies with its plot that should have taken 30 minutes to convey its message about the implausibility and failure of forced marriages that happen in the state of Bihar in India. And it is the dull, back-and-forth love drama between the lead pair that actually annoys you even if you are interested in the main theme. And save for the lead single, the overall music, and the on-the-face advertisements for Dr. Morepen, Gas-O-Fast, and Maanyavar, nothing sticks in this lost opportunity of a film. TN.

Worst movie
abdullah-0039216 August 2019
Boring, too slow, felt like I was there for 4 hours! Will probably be the worst movie of sid... he really needs to choose good scripts. No doubt his a good actor but acting won't define you if the story is not good. Everything needs to be an all rounder to entertain audience.

Everything goes wrong
divyanshu911415 August 2019
Jabariya jodi serms to be made jabariya, same cliche old story with a new name. Side actors are much better than main. I might be a good one if it must have been created with planning and focus.

Another cliche Poppycock ("Be sar pair ki") Bollywood romantic movie which makes the viewer resentful for wasting their time!
bhatiaaadi23 May 2020
Lock your brain in the freezer if you are looking forward to a good time watching this movie. If your purpose is "time pass laughter", then the first half has some good jokes. In the second half, the laughter dose is significantly reduced which makes the viewer question "Why am I even watching this?". Unfortunately, I sat through and it was as bad as I anticipated. The cliché ending left me with a distasteful and regretful for wasting my time. Director's efforts of making the heroine an eye candy seemed ludicrous for a Bihari setting where the movie is shot. The acting is super bad as the protagonists have absolutely no Bihari accent. Siddharth Malhotra speaking like a sophisticated businessman dressed in a mawali costume looks absolutely dumb. I would rate this -10/10, but due to IMDB restrictions, this rightfully deserves a 1/10.

Horrible and Awful
kamatrohan-9201111 March 2022
There should be laws in the Indian Judicial System for Captial Punishment for people who direct and act in such a Horribly awful film... I feel like echoing Phoebe's lines "MY EYES.. MY EYES!!!!!"

Screenplay could and Editing could have been better
nikhilporwal711 September 2021
The movie is not made seriously. During Holi song also Parineeti is seen blue eyeLiners fully make-up done. She may not that even in Holi parties.

Nothing matches and invokes emotions from you. Emotional scenes are half baked.

Other issue was of fake pick-up of accent. It didn't look natural.

Other could have rated 6 or 7 for an average storyline.
