I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Bewakoofiyaan- 2014 Director: Nupur AsthanaRomance in times of recession' can be a buzz kill. When currency crash leads to heartbreaks and house-breaks. And the youth are left with bankrupt dreams. The same happened with Mohit was actually searching a job but was only interested in working Airline Company due to which he had to suffer along with his personal life. Overall, Rishi Kapoor acted well, Sonam was Good and Aaayushman was also fine in the movie. The song were not so good. It was a low budget movie and with a very random story.The outfits worn by Sonam Kapoor in the movie were Very nice but once again Yash Raj Films wasted the money.

WHAT'S GOOD: The story is quite unpredictable actually.Even if you know what's gonna happen, it'll at least happen in a way that is different from your imagination. Rishi Kapoor is mind blowing.You'd kill to have a father-in-law like that. The music is entertaining. The movie keeps its comedy category noticeable in every minute.WHAT'S BAD: I guess everything else.The worst part is,there is almost no chemistry between the two 'lovebirds'. Sonam and Khurrana never reacted the way they should have... Not always their fault necessarily,but the shallowness of the story. In parts, may be you'll feel sorry for both, even a teardrop may dare to come out from your right eye(my case). But weird and meaningless EGO on-screen, will soon force it to get right back inside! The intention of being different and The fear of getting over-melodramatic made the characters alien from us.You'll watch it but wont be able to see life in it. The story will go on but sadly you'll not be able to connect with any of the leads other than Rishi Kapoor.But still, you'll like it for the laughs and a marvelous father-in-law. And if you are too kind, you might even love it.but I promise you, you wont be able to give it more than a 7.6 with love, out of 10 for all the good that this movie has to offer. One time watch for me. Surprisingly, I did enjoy it!

Bewakoofiyan is enjoyable.After Gunday this is 2nd movie from YRF.This one is better than Gunday in order to screenplay,cinematography and direction. Story lies between Mohit(Ayushman Khurana) and his girlfriend Mayera(Sonam Kapoor) and her father V K Sehgal(Rishi Kapoor).Direction is superb.Movie's pace is slow and at some point very slow but because of good cinematography and screenplay it won't become boring.1st half is entertaining full of party,passion and many comic scenes.2nd half becomes sentimental and serious plus more slow than 1st half.Due to bad music movie becomes boring when songs start except Gulchchrey.There are so many touchy scenes in 2nd half.For me one of best scenes was interval scene like it is very nicely directed plus written. Rishi Kapoor is good as Hitler father.His expressions are superb in every ironically dialogs.Ayushman as always with one expression in every scenes.But he is very good in serious scenes.Sonam Kapoor is damn hot in bikini and most of other scenes.Sonam has given kissing scenes first time. Overall,this is not worth watching but from me it is recommended ! This is not that type of movie which will be liked by everyone but for real cinema lovers this is worth watching.Go for it,not highly recommended !!

BEWAKOOFIYAAN is a romantic comedy directed by Nupur Asthana, starring Ayushmann Khurana, Sonam Kapoor and Rishi Kapoor, in the lead roles.The film revolves around Mohit Chadda (Ayushmann Khurana) who's the Senior Executive Marketing Manager at an airline company, and is engaged to Mayera (Sonam Kapoor). Life seems great, until he meets Mayera's father, who's interested in money more than love. And the whole situation becomes worse when Mohit gets fired from his job during recession.Bewakoofiyaan, inspite of facing cold responses from critics upon watching the trailer, is quite a watchable film. The plot is extremely predictable and seems copied from several romantic comedies involving the father's hand in marriage. However, the one factor that makes Bewakoofiyaan very different is the reality check it offers about modern relationships. Most romantic films involve everything being just fine; however, Bewakoofiyaan, set in the backdrop of the Great Recession, offers a very realistic view of how money indeed is necessary for a relationship to work.Inspite of all that, the film does have several flaws too; one of them being how the plot struggles to flow easily. Habib Faisal, who has written scripts for several great films like Band Bajaa Baraat, Ishaqzaade and Do Dooni Chaar, fails to stick one point. Case and point, he was trying to include the financial point of view of a relationship along with the idea of the main character impressing the father of his soulmate. The film would have been a lot better if it just stuck to one topic only.The acting is quite good. Ayushmann Khurana offers an extremely good performance as a short-tempered, egoistic bankrupt man, and Rishi Kapoor offers a great performance, as always. Sonam Kapoor still needs a bit work in terms of her acting. Her fashion sense is extraordinary, however, after showing how well she can act in films like Raanjhanaa and Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, she returns back to her earlier performance that does not show any improvement, whatsoever. That being said, Bewakoofiyaan is watchable as well for its great performances and chemistry between the two main actors.The songs are quite alright to listen to, however, not extraordinary. Some of them are quite unnecessary in the film though and could have just been edited out of the film. In terms of the album, all of the songs are quite fine to listen to.In conclusion, Bewakoofiyaan is just a one-time watch. As the name suggests, it is quite stupid to give it an entertaining screenplay; fortunately, it doesn't go over-the-top. It could've been much better though, but since it fails to do, it is quite forgettable. But if you are looking for quite a fun timepass at the movies, Bewakoofiyaan is the film you're looking for.BEWAKOOFIYAAN- 5.5/10
