Movie Review- Mr. and Mrs. Mahi: Janhvi was seen doing mediocre acting, Rajkumar Rao also looked boring; Cricket sequence is faker than fake

Rajkumar Rao and Janhvi Kapoor starrer film ‘Mr. and Mrs. Mahi’ has been released in theatres today. The length of the film is 2 hours 18 minutes. Dainik Bhaskar has given the film a rating of 2 stars out of 5.

What is the story of the film?
This film is about Mahendra (Rajkumar Rao) and Mahima (Janhvi Kapoor). Both have the nickname Mahi. Both of them were very fond of cricket at one time, but the course of time pulled them somewhere else. Mahendra wanted to become a cricketer but could not, while Mahima became a doctor as per her parents’ wishes.

Mahendra and Mahima meet each other, their thoughts match and they get married. Mahima asks her husband Mahendra to return to cricket. Mahendra returns to the field, but his rhythm is not the same as before. Then he sees that his wife, Mahima, is also hitting long sixes.

Mahendra then gives up his dream of becoming a cricketer and starts coaching Mahima. He even gets Mahima selected in the state team. With time, Mahendra starts getting insecure about his wife’s success. He feels that Mahima has become famous, but he has remained where he was. The relationship between the two gets spoiled. Now you will have to watch the film to see how their lives change.

The film has been released today i.e. on 31st May.

How is the acting of the star cast?
Janhvi Kapoor has disappointed with her acting. Her expressions have been almost the same throughout the film, she seems a bit confused. She has played the role of a cricketer in the film, but her stance (a batting technique) does not seem clear.

He should have practised a little more to get into the role of a cricketer. Rajkumar Rao has tried to handle it a little bit, but in most places he also looks boring. He is seen crying in every scene.

Janhvi has taken cricket training for a year for this film. Despite this, she has not been able to get into her role.

How is the direction?
The film is quite predictable. The story is absolutely flat. Director Sharan Sharma has not been able to create any interest. The dialogues are also very weak. The cricket sequence also seems completely fake. This film also has actors like Kumud Mishra and Zarina Wahab, but the director has not been able to get better work out of them.

For the second time, the pair of Rajkumar Rao and Janhvi Kapoor has been seen on screen.

How is the music of the film?
The song ‘Tenu Pehli Pehli Baar’ from ‘Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham’ has been recreated in this film. This is the first and last good song of the film. Usually the songs of films made on sports background are energy-giving, nothing like this was seen or heard in this film.

Final Verdict, Watch the Movie or Not?
If you have a lot of time and nothing else to do, then only you can go for this movie. People who like Rajkumar Rao’s movies can also go, but after watching this you will be disappointed.
