He walks with a limp and a foul mouth that allows him to only communicate in taunts with his rather understanding wife, Rhea. The two get to talking, share deep personal secrets (because what else are strangers for) and just as Dev is leaving to go pick his mother up, he gets hit by a car and breaks his leg as well as his dream of becoming a professional footballer.Ĥ years later, Dev is more bitter than ever. Maya’s OCD compels her to talk to him, even if it was for asking the guy to not litter.
Terrified of marrying Rishi (the same guy who spent his bachelor party passed out next to 4 guys) out of an obligation towards his father who raised her when her parents passed away, Maya is sitting and wallowing on a bench when she meets Dev. The first and the only red flag that needed to be taken into consideration but was ignored just like morality was in the entire film.ĭev’s mom aka Kiron Kher is catering at Rishi and Maya’s wedding and stumbles upon ‘Sexy Sam’ who is the only sensible yet kinkiest character in the film played by Amitabh Bachchan. And don’t even get us started on how much happier she looks with a washcloth in her hand than imagining Rishi by her side - the man she is about to marry but, clearly, doesn’t want to. Maya aka Rani Mukherjee’s introduction is given by showing her cleaning a mirror.on her wedding day.in a lehenga. Manchild, alert!Ĭut to a rather controversial scene where Rishi aka Abhishek Bachchan is seen passed out on a couch after what seems like a college frat party but was instead his bachelor party - with only bachelors in sight… 4 of them to be precise. Within the first 5 minutes of the movie we’ve established that Dev is a bit of an ass and instead of being happy that his wife nailed the interview, comes at her for missing his game and rubs the fact that he earns more than her right in her face. Meanwhile his wife Rhea aka Preity Zinta is walking up for her interview as the Editor of a fashion magazine and gets judgemental looks for being the strong, independent and a career-oriented woman.
The movie starts with an OTT introduction to the film’s most bitter and annoying character Dev aka Shah Rukh Khan, who is currently playing football for a big league. Another one of Karan Johar’s problematic productions from the 2000s that gave toxic individuals a push for pursuing extra-marital affairs and even justify them, this movie is about leaving your morals behind and diving headfirst into problematic concepts, like cheating on your very loyal spouse.
