This sequel steals your heart once again. There is a cause for excitement every time Harpreet Kaur aka “Happy” runs or escapes. She does an average job and fails to stand out in an already talented cast.Film: “Happy Phirr Bhag Jayegi” Director: Mudassar Aziz Cast: Diana Penty, Ali Fazal, Sonakshi Sinha, Jimmy Shergill, Jassi Gill, Piyush Mishra, Jason Tham Rating: ***1/2 Pakistani actress Momal Sheikh is seen as Bilal’s fiancee in the film. Piyush Mishra as the Pakistani cop does a great job.
His act of Bagga, who is a partial villain is quite likable. Jimmy Shergill once again does not get the girl in the film. Shown to be an emotional character, Fazal does a decent job. He looks suave, his act is good.Īli Fazal plays the lover boy Guddu. She does not come off as convincing enough but I’d still laud her efforts to take that up.Ībhay Deol is thoroughly impressive as Bilal Ahmed. Quite contrasting to her previous role, Penty has put efforts for this role and it is quite evident. With Happy Bhag Jayegi, the actress attempts to play the feisty Punjabi girl Happy. Happy Bhag Jayegi Review: Star Performanceĭiana Penty was last seen in her debut film Cocktail.
It could have been more tightly written since, multiple sub-plots kill all the fun.Ī drunk Guddu and Pakistani police, Afridi (Piyush Mishra) discussing Urdu and not Kashmir, Bilal convincing his father about seeing his late mother’s ghost to cover-up for Happy’s movements in the house make up for hilarious scenes.
The second half typically gets all the lead characters in one place and thus begins the chaos. Predictability runs all through the plot. Mostly, it is the side characters that are written best. Also, there is less evidence that shows Happy to be a riot, we hear about her character being more crazy than actually seeing it in the film. Happy’s character is much like Jab We Met‘s Geet and with a tad more confident act, it could have worked well. The urdu conversations between Bilal and Afridi are amazing. Taking on the country’s nature through subtle jokes, dialogues such as ‘Yahan bandook ke bina baat karo toh koi sunta hi nahi hai’ work well. One of the most likable points about this is, the representation of the life beyond the border which is quite similar to us. The film’s story is set in both India and Pakistan. There are instances when one is reminded of Tanu Weds Manu too. This situational comedy is also high on Anand L Rai feel. The film even with a predictable plot, manages to keep you entertained with its funny dialogues. Will Happy and Guddu’s love story have a happy ending? Is Bilal too in the race to win Happy’s heart is what you have to find out!
