Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar Review: The troubled romcom starring Ranbir Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor is a Patchwork of Monologues

Star Rating 2.5/5

StarCast: Ranbir Kapoor, Shraddha Kapoor, Dimple Kapadia, Anubhav Singh Bassi

Rohan Arora (Ranbir Kapoor) and Nisha Malhotra (Shraddha Kapoor), who both come from affluent Delhi families, fall in love the instant they meet while on holiday in Spain. The two click right away, but modern love has a way of making things complicated.

Unsurprisingly, talk in Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar by Luv Ranjan is dirt cheap. Some individuals are infatuated with their own sounds (the louder the better). With the slightest provocation, they start acting yackety-yak. There isn't much time for them to relax in between each lengthy monologue. If one has the wherewithal to add up the film's endless convolutions and contortions, Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar, Bollywood's Holi and International Women's Day release, amounts to more farce than humor, more chaos than caprice, and more dalliance than romance.

Initially, Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar is a discounted version of Zindagi Naa Milegi Dobaara. It finally reaches the territory of Rajshri Pictures and Dharma Productions. The movie tries to make up for its lack of depth with a tonne of jargon. It takes time for the male lead, who is portrayed by Ranbir Kapoor with misdirected fervor, to realize how pointless it all is. He wonders out loud, Bina baat ke saara drama hua. He's spot on. In fact, Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar is a case of much hullabaloo about nothing.

The first half drags along with its weak writing and lack of a clear head or tail. With some stupid pickup lines that are also openly misogynistic, Micky and Tinny's romance develops in the most ridiculous way, but when has Ranjan bothered to care about that? He executes it in such a way that you would hear whistling and applause from half of the audience during those phrases. Even the girl has some extremely awkward lines, such as asking the guy to practically ogle her, or so some might think. Most of the time in the first half, it seemed as though Ranjan simply took the format from Imtiaz Ali's Tamasha and substituted Shraddha for Deepika Padukone.

The classic love story Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar is presented in a contemporary setting. It's strange and troublesome, but it's presented humorously, which can draw you in. The pre-interval may be difficult for you to endure, but after that, things start to calm down. If you enjoy them as much as Kartik Aaryan does, it's absolutely worth seeing once for some entertaining performances and monologues because it helped him connect with the audience.
