Review of Mr. and Mrs. Mahi: This film, which stars Rajkummar Rao and Janhvi Kapoor, was teased some years ago and is now shown on big screens. The film is directed by Sharan Sharma, who previously directed Janhvi in the lead part of Gunjan Saxena The Kargil Girl. Though Gunjan Saxena was a skillfully crafted movie, is Mr & Mrs Mahi a worthwhile viewing? Read our review below to find out.
Rajkummar Rao’s character Mahendra wants to play cricket, but he isn’t picked. A few years later, he marries Mahima (Janhvi Kapoor), and ironically, both of their nicknames are Mahi (which also happens to be MS Dhoni’s moniker). Mahendra chooses to train Mahima, a doctor by profession, to become a cricket player because she shares his passion for the game. However, as Mahima succeeds, Mahendra begins to feel envious as he is not receiving recognition for it. The rest of the story is about how these two overcome all obstacles in their personal and professional lives.
Nikhil Mehrotra and Sharan Sharma wrote the script for Mr. & Mrs. Mahi, and Sharma also directed it. The movie moves quite slowly in the first half, giving you the impression that nothing fascinating is happening. With Mahima’s training beginning in the second part of the film, things pick up a little bit, but aside from a few scenes, there’s not much to keep you glued to the screen. There is nothing particularly interesting or novel to watch in the film because the idea of a wife achieving success and her husband being envious of her has been explored in Bollywood a few times before, and the directors have already revealed the entire plot in the trailer.
The most crucial aspect of a sports drama is that it should transport the audience into a stadium with thrilling sequences that keep us on the tip of our seats, but this isn’t the case. There’s not even a single moment in the cricket match that leaves you feeling impressed or shivering, save for the final six that Mahima hits.
One positive aspect of the movie is that it contains a few hilarious situations that will undoubtedly make you laugh aloud. However, we don’t attend plays expecting a sports drama in order to laugh.
Performances by Mr. and Mrs. Mahi Actors
In his role as Mahendra, Rajkumar Rao is good, and there are moments in which he really pops. But Janhvi Kapoor’s Mrs. Mahi is unquestionably the star of the show. With every movie, the actress becomes better and shows that she can perform to a very high degree. Janhvi plays a number of facets as Mahima, and she does a fantastic job in this role. Furthermore evident is the actress’s dedication to perfecting the sport.
Kumud Mishra, who receives the finest role in the supporting cast, puts up an outstanding performance. Zarina Wahab, regrettably, is given the same motherly position, which is unsatisfactory. Yamini das is wasted here too, after making us laugh so hard in Haseen Dilruba. For a cameo, Arjit Taneja does alright.
Mahi & Mrs. Music
None of the songs, however, have the necessary components to become hits on the charts. When it’s shown on enormous screens, Dekhha Tenu certainly makes an impact.
Review of the Final Verdict by Mr. and Mrs. Mahi
Mr. & Mrs. Mahi is, all things considered, just a dull, predictable movie that offers nothing novel. It is similar to viewing Abhimaan in cricket form. Therefore, feel free to skip it.
