Luka Chuppi Movie Review: The Kartik Aaryan And Kriti Sanon Starrer Has Nothing More Than A Laughter Riot

It’s quite easy to become an actor but cruel to become a star. 8 years after jumping into the industry, Kartik Aaryan seems to suffer enough to become a real star. His latest film, Luka Chuppi, has witnessed the excellent performance of him. Far from the monologue or derogatory towards women as in his previous one, Luka Chuppi is entertaining enough for the audience to ignore the week storyline.

Luka Chuppi is a story about a Guddu Shukla (Kartik). As a local TV reporter in Mathura, he has a crush on Rashmi Trivedi (Kriti Sanon), the daughter of a Hindu hardliner politician. The film portrays the contrast between two of them when Guddu is a small town boy growing up with conservative values of the middle-class and Rashmi is a well travelled and well-read girl.

Things start moving when Guddu proposes to Rashmi. Instead of a marriage, she just wants a live-in relationship due to her Hindu hardliner father. His party is against young lovers meeting each other, even in secret.

What the movie trailer here:

It’s Kartik Aaryan and Kriti Sanon’s charming performance to keep us stay at the end of the film. Meanwhile,  Aparshakti Khurana has done a great job both as Abbas, Guddu’s best friend and a cameraman. The chemistry between the three of them is intense. Vinay Pathak, Rashmi’s father, has successfully expressed a menacing Hindutva leader and the rest of the cast has completed their parts too.

However, the real show stealer must be Pankaj Tripathi who is an absurd and clownish riot.

The flaw of the film is definitely about the weak script with an underwhelming climax. Even when the film focuses on a controversial subject with great intent, it can do nothing but trivialising the issue.

In Summary

Regardless of the weak script, Luka Chuppi is definitely a laughter riot. With strong performance, the movie is way different from what we’ve known about Kartik Aaryan’s previous movies. It’s not about slapstick but situations which is enough for an entertaining movie night.

Rating: 3/5
