Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar Review: love story with full emotions and comedy

Luv Ranjan has developed his own style of filmmaking and his films really have their own set of audiences, but with Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar, he seems 5 years too late. The story of Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar starts with a couple having a breakup and Rohan Arora aka Mickey aka Ranbir Kapoor and Mannu played by Bassi are the masterminds behind it. Ranbir comes from a wealthy Delhi family who have multiple businesses and he has a brother from another mother Mannu, again a typical trope in a Luv Ranjan film.Well, the story continues and Ranbir and Tini, played by Shraddha Kapoor meet and fall in love after just one song. 

Plot: Mickey (Ranbir Kapoor), a break up guru by profession, goes on a bachelor trip to Spain with his friend, Dabbas (Anubhav Singh Bassi). Interestingly, Dabbas is joined by his own fiancé, Kinchi (Monica Chaudhary) and her friend, Tinni (Shraddha Kapoor), on what was supposed to be his bachelors’ trip. As it goes, Mickey and Tinni fall in love with each other. There’s a lot that happens through the screenplay and without spoiling the elements of plot for the audience, what follows in brief is an episode of romance, emotions and a lot of humour centred around the families. The film also is a ideological fight of perspectives between men and women around families.

Tu Jhuthi Main Makkaar moves really slow in the first half, promises an enticing plot in the second half, but Luv Ranjan really plays on bits and pieces as the film appears to be a very long roller-coaster ride, where you have your moments of excitement, but you have to wait too long for it.The dialogues are out right funny when needed, and don’t even shy away from going too serious and philosophical when demanded by the situation. The soul of Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar rests in the emotions, which are relatable for both the men and women, as also the families.

One of the most powerful elements in the film is its music. The music really is fantastic and it has done heavy lifting for the weak plot. Each and every song of the film looks and sounds spectacular on the big screen and especially the dance numbers look grand. 

Ranbir could have chosen a better script if he had to do a romantic role, but his chemistry with Shraddha looks good on screen. Shraddha has appeared in her hottest avatar till date and the role perfectly suits her. The expressions, the nuances are perfectly portrayed by her.  It is the debut Bollywood film of Anubhav Singh Bassi and though the standup-comedian makes us laugh with his dialogues, his dialogue delivery seems very bland.

There’s a lot that comes together in Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar, which makes it a supremely entertaining romantic comedy driven by family emotions. The first half sets the base whereas the conflict beautifully comes together in the second half, with the final 30 minutes in itself warranting a repeat watch. The marriage of modern love story with the Indian family values is what makes Luv Ranjan’s story a unique big screen entertainer.Overall, Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar is like that fun roller-coaster ride which you want to take.
