Review of ‘Mr. & Mrs. Mahi’: Rajkummar Rao and Janhvi Kapoor shine in an underwhelming movie – News

Mr. and Mrs. Mahi is a film that falls somewhere in the middle. The story revolves around a failed cricketer, Mahendra Aggarwal (Rajkummar Rao), who enters into an arranged marriage with Mahima (Janhvi Kapoor), a doctor in training. The film explores themes of suppressed dreams, jealousy, and insecurities within the confines of a typical sports drama. While the idea behind the film is promising, the execution lacks depth and fails to engage the audience emotionally.

The trailer practically gives away the entire plot, leaving little room for surprises. Director Sharan Sharma’s previous film, Gunjan Saxena, had warmth and depth that elevated it above the average, but Mr. and Mrs. Mahi lacks the same impact. The messaging in the film is overt and lacks subtlety, making it feel preachy and predictable. The genre of sports drama offers potential for exploring complex emotions, but the film falls short in delivering a compelling narrative.

The chemistry between the lead pair, Rajkummar Rao and Janhvi Kapoor, is a highlight of the film. Both actors deliver strong performances, with Janhvi showcasing grace and subtlety in her role as a supportive wife and determined cricketer. Rajkummar Rao shines in his portrayal of a complex character, transitioning from supportiveness to jealousy with finesse. Despite their efforts, the lackluster screenplay fails to elevate their performances.

While there are some sweet moments and amusing scenes in the film, it ultimately feels like a lackluster game played out by two average teams in an empty stadium. The cricket scenes lack excitement, and the relationship dynamics feel shallow. Mr. and Mrs. Mahi may appeal to fans of the lead actors, but it falls short in delivering a compelling and engaging narrative. With better writing and execution, the film could have been a standout sports drama with a unique twist on the genre.
