Storyline: A chaat shop owner struggles to provide dowry for the weddings of his four sisters If judged through the trailer, the film might appear like a regressive idea wrapped in an outdated package. It has been three decades since the Hindi film industry asked Yeh Aag Kab Bujhegi (1991). Dowry deaths continue to happen despite stringent laws, but they have stopped making headlines or inspiring filmmakers. Set in Old Delhi, gol gappas, Akshay plays Lala Kedarnath, who runs a chaat shop where his speciality is water pancakes for pregnant women who want a male child. A brother to four sisters, his principal aim in life is to arrange dowry for their weddings, even if it means selling his kidney. It is hard to believe that the idea of financial independence for girls hasn’t gained ground in the national capital, but the writers, Himanshu Sharma and Kanika Dhillon, have woven in a bouquet of emotions. Raksha Bandhan has enough material to keep the audience tied for two hours, and the pace and pitch of the narrative are such that it doesn’t allow you to easily gauge the gaps. Akshay Kumar likens dowry to 'extortion', says not many films are made on the issue The politically-incorrect Dilli humour of the first half seamlessly flows into the equally powerful anti-dowry sentiments of the second. In between, backed by Himesh Reshmmaiyya’s Punjabi tunes, Aanand evokes the traditional brother-sister love that has gone missing from Hindi cinema. An expert at pulling the heartstrings,...

After Bachchhan Paandey and Samrat Prithviraj, Akshay Kumar is now gearing up for his third release of the year, Raksha Bandhan. The film also stars Bhumi Pednekar, Sadia Khateeb, Sahejmeen Kaur, Smrithi Srikanth, and Deepika Khanna. The trailer and the film's songs have impressed everyone, and now moviegoers are keen to know the reviews of the film. Well, finally, the first review of Raksha Bandhan is out now. Umair Sandhu, a member of the overseas Censor Board, recently saw the film and shared his review on Instagram. Also Read - Umair gave the film 3.5 stars and wrote, “First Review #RakshaBandhan ! It is very desi, very Indian at heart, seeped in Hindustani emotions. It talks of familial bonding. It packs in loads of desi sentiments in those hours ! #akshaykumar Stole the Show all the way ! #bhumipednekar & other 4 girls acted very well ! Songs are very Soulful ! Full on Engaging flick with Terrific Social Message. 3.5/5.” Also Read - Well, it’s the clash of the titans at the box office; however, the target audiences of both films are quite different. While Raksha Bandhan looks like a massy film, Laal Singh Chaddha looks like a movie for multiplex audiences. Raksha Bandhan and Laal Singh Chaddha have been receiving a lot of negativity on social media as netizens are trending #BoycottLaalSinghChaddha and #BoycottRakshaBandhanMovie. However, fans of Akshay and Aamir are excited to watch the movie in theatres. Directed by Advait Chandan, Laal Singh Chaddha also stars Kare...

I remember watching Shallow Hal (2001) as a teenager and, for the first time, realizing that some movies use shallow characters as a smokescreen to hide their own shallowness. Here was a crude fat-joke-centric comedy – about a hypnotized man who falls for a 300-pound woman because he sees her as a svelte lady – parading as a fable about "inner beauty". After watching Raksha Bandhan , 21 years later, I look back with nothing but nostalgia at the notorious Jack Black starrer. I've seen my fair share of tone-deaf social dramas over the years, but Raksha Bandhan takes the (eggless) cake. It's the sort of self-contradictory movie that bats for progressiveness even within the constraints of regressive systems, only to become progressively regressive by the minute. If you think that's a tongue-twister, I apologize. I'm a little shaken. Every time I reached for hair to pull out, my receding hairline thwarted my efforts. The problem with Raksha Bandhan is that it's impossible to tell the film from its narrow-minded setting. The small-town energy of an average Aanand L. Rai scene is so strong that it's hard to tell if the characters are being condemned for their flaws or celebrated for their quirks. The activity and noise in a frame feel like red herrings that distract from its problematic themes. For instance, Raksha Bandhan unironically uses every woman in the story as a visual prop for the man's eventual enlightenment. One of the sisters is obese only so that Kedarnath can fat-sh...

Dangerous messaging punctuates every ounce of its storyline wherein dowry is normalised, the kidney is a small price to pay for it, observes Sukanya Verma. Raksha Bandhan is like Lalita Pawar. Remember how she would do all sorts of torturous things to her bête noire bahu throughout the movie? But in the end, she would come to her senses and throw herself at the daughter-in-law's feet begging for forgiveness and turn into a shining beacon of love and peace. Three fourths of Aanand L Rai's so-called social drama glorifies misogynistic objectives and regressive ideals for the sake of fun and jokes. Only at its fag end, Raksha Bandhan changes its tune and atones for its previous mindset like a shoddy public service announcement whose only agenda is to put Akshay Kumar on a pedestal. Keeping with Director Rai's fondness for busy bazaars and lively imagery full of flowers, gulaal, spices, savouries and gol gappe, Chandni Chowk's Khari Baoli street where Kedarnath (Akshay Kumar) runs his popular chaat shop forms the centre of all action. Pregnant women flock his eatery in hope of birthing a son by gobbling down a gol gappa as guaranteed by its owner. Played for laughs sans nuance or sarcasm, there's something off-putting about the entire sequence, Kedarnath's testy tone and its ' jahan shraddha hogi ladka hi hoga' incentive. If the makers had even a bare minimum of interest in making a point about the problem with everybody desiring a boy, they could have shown all four of Kedarn...

It is Raksha Bandhan vs. Raksha Bandhan Story Raksha Bandhan / Poster The story revolves around Lala Kedarnath, played by Still From Trailer Lala tries hard and puts relentless effort into getting his sisters married. However, due to this, his personal life has gone for a toss. Sapna’s father gives Lala an ultimatum to marry his daughter within six months; else, he will marry her to someone else. He arranges dowry and even marries one of his sisters. However, things turn dramatically after that. Things get emotional. What happens next? Watch the film to find out. Raksha Bandhan Review Aanand L. Rai has given films like Raanjhanaa, Tanu Weds Manu, Tanu Weds Manu Returns, and recently released Still From Song Talking about the performance, Akshay Kumar is simply brilliant. He has played the role of a brother with utmost perfection. You will surely forget Bachhchan Pandey and Samrat Prithviraj after this. He has poured his heart out with loads of emotions, fun, and humor. Bhumi Pednekar has done justice with her character. Sadia Khateeb is beautiful and would be better if she had more screen time. Seema Pahwa, Sahejmeen Kaur, Deepika Khanna, and Smriti Srikanth all played their part well. Himesh Reshammiya’s music is melodious. The songs like Tere Saath Hoon Main, Done Kar Do, and Dhaagon Sa Bandha are already chartbusters. Final Verdict Still From Trailer The film will make you laugh and equally makes you cry. It is based on Indian culture and a beautiful brother-sister bond...

It's not for nothing that people say Also read: Akshay Kumar calls dowry ‘extortion’ ahead of Raksha Bandhan release Raksha Bandhan stars Akshay Kumar as a brother of four girls, tasked with marrying them off. Set in the lanes of Chandni Chownk in Old Delhi, the film introduces us to Lala Kedarnath (Akshay), who owns a pushtaini golgappa shop which has been there for three generations now. Pregnant women queue up outside the shop and believe that eating panipuri from Lala's shop will help them deliver a baby boy. Meanwhile, Lala had promised his mother on her deathbed that he'll settle down with a girl only after he has married off his four sisters to suitable boys. And that's the big task at hand for the sisters, as described by matchmaker Shanu (Seema Pahwa), are a mixed variety. While the eldest of the four, Gayatri (Sadia Khateeb) is the ideal and sensible one, Durga (Deepika Khanna) is chubby and on the heavier side, Laxmi (Smrithi Srikanth) has dusky skin that doesn't fit the society's beauty standards, and the youngest, Saraswati (Sahejmeen Kaur) is tomboyish, who has grown up watching films like Ghatak, Ghayal and Ziddi, all starring Sunny Deol. Amid all this chaos, Lala's childhood sweetheart Sapna ( What I loved the most about the film is the beautiful balance it brings in terms of emotions. It's loaded with humour in the first half and there are some genuinely funny and heart-warming scenes including constant nudging from the sisters, teasing their only brother,...
