HERE comes a time while watching a film when you just give up on it.
The gags feel gaggy, the suspension of disbelief turns into sheer disbelief, and you start to look around to ensure that you are not the only one not getting the joke.
The humour clock rings a ru-nout alarm quite early in Varun Dhawan, Janhvi Kapoor, Sanya Malhotra, and Rohit Saraf's mouthful-of-a-title, Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari. Directed by Shashank Khaitan (Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania, 2014; Badrinath Ki Dulhania, 2017), the film is another product from the Dharma bling factory whose packaging is flashier than its contents. Although you do get everything you expect. Destination wedding vibes? Check. Old songs remixed solely to make them contemporary party anthems? Check. Wardrobe ideas for any upcoming marriage functions? Check Check Check.
