Badhaai Do is a 2022 Indian Hindi-language comedy drama film written by Suman Adhikary and Akshat Ghildial, and directed by Harshavardhan Kulkarni, starring Rajkumar Rao and Bhumi Pednekar.
Instead of coming out to their families a gay man and a lesbian enter into a marriage of convenience to appease their parents. However chaos soon ensues when the woman’s girlfriend comes to live with the unlikely couple.Bollywood is trying to take up this matter and turn it into different scenarios for a movie. So was keeping this in the list for sometime. But the movie didn’t dissappoint maybe because I love the leads, both of them. The confusion and plans all went out like any other Bolly movie and the climax is what anyone will love to have because it’s all about love ultimately. The coming out scenes were heart touching and well real enough but not everyones reality though. I never get why it’s so easy to disown their own kids rather than accepting them for who they are. Skipping just one shaadi wala song in the beginning, rest of the movie is pretty entertaining.
