It is that Bollywood family entertainer for which the audience has been waiting for a long time. Families are loving the film as the story tells of family values and Indian customs without being too preachy. It is that movie which the entire family of three generations can go and watch and each and every member will easily relate to at least one character. It is relatable and how! Not only the public but film critics have also given their stamp of approval to the film. Several reviewers have called the film ‘paisa vasool’, ‘full on entertaining’ and ‘a perfect family watch’.

About Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani

The film is based on Rocky Randhawa, a loud and flamboyant Punjabi boy, and Rani Chatterjee, an intellectual Bengali journalist. After facing family opposition to their relationship, they decide to live with each other’s families for three months before getting married. How this family switch goes is what the story further entails.

Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani is not your typical love story. It’s filled with love, emotions & sentiments. But not without a very important and powerful social message on patriarchy that has been followed for years in our society. Karan Johar has woven a beautiful message very subtly in this love story. Go, watch it for yourself in a theatre near you.
