Good days seem to be shining bright for Arjun Kapoor—first in *Singham Again* alongside Bollywood’s big names, and now here, sharing the screen with two stunning actresses. Mere Husband Ki Biwi is the kind of film where logic takes a backseat and entertainment takes the wheel. Despite a weak trailer, the film manages to hold its ground, delivering exactly what it promised—pure entertainment without the weight of a social message.
Storyline
Arjun Kapoor’s character gets divorced from Bhumi Pednekar’s, only to find love again with Rakul Preet Singh. Just when life seems settled, Bhumi’s character makes a surprising comeback. Revealing more would spoil the plot—though frankly, it’s simple enough to wrap up in a single line.
How’s the Film?
It’s a decent timepass. The first half feels stretched and struggles to get to the point, making you wonder if it’s going anywhere. But don’t leave during the interval—the second half picks up with hilarious confrontations between Rakul and Bhumi, becoming the heart of the film. There are moments that will make you laugh and others that feel a bit childish.
The climax falls into the typical Bollywood trap—another airport scene where characters dramatically rush off after a heartbreak. Makes you wonder: how do these people always get instant flights? And how are others walking into airports like they bought a platform ticket? Despite such clichés, the film manages to entertain.
Performances
Rakul Preet Singh steals the show with her charm and strong performance. Bhumi Pednekar delivers well too, though her character’s loudness might feel over-the-top at times. Still, her scenes with Rakul are the film’s highlight.
Arjun Kapoor puts in a decent effort. His emotional scene where he says, *“I’m not some trophy for you both to fight over,”* stands out.
Harsh Gujral often called a budget Vicky Kaushal, proves his comedic chops and adds solid humor. Aditya Seal impresses with his presence, while veterans like **Shakti Kapoor, Mukesh Rishi and Anita Raj do justice to their roles.
Direction
Mudassar Aziz delivers an okay-ish job. The film could’ve been tighter if the first half was trimmed and more focus was given to Rakul-Bhumi’s confrontations. Still, he succeeds in crafting a passable entertainer.
Final Verdict
Mere Husband Ki Biwi- doesn’t aim for depth or logic—it’s here for laughs and casual fun. If you’re looking to kill time with some light-hearted drama and humor, this one’s worth a watch.
