Band Baaja Baarat

I decided to sneak out early from office to go and watch Band Baaja Baarat.. The show is only playing at either 11.30am or 5.30pm so not ideal and once again Bollywood takes it precedent ahead of my actual career.

Anyway if anyone from work found out or saw me, then forget watching Band Baaja as it will be my Band Baaja…Anyway, the risk was worth it as the movie is good and excellent times pass

Story is really simple which is why I think it worked well. Shruti (Anushka Sharma) wants to become a wedding organizer so she starts her own company Shaadi Mubarak. Bitooo (New dude) then becomes her partner and together they organise weddings. She starts of by saying that they cannot fall in love as business and love do not go hand in hand as we know what goes hand in hand with business..paisa!..Paisa paisa Paissa (btw I am singing this to the tune of the De Dana Dan Paisa Paisa song).

Ok enough de-tours and back to the movie.. Soon enough though, wait for it..she and Bittoo have a one night stand and she is love with him (Surprise!) but he is not interested as he feels that if they start going out, it will affect their business and hence he plays it cool and cold towards her.

I guess he had to behave that way with her as if not the movie would have ended in intermission only and we do not want that as we are really really enjoying the movie.. So I guess for the sake of the audience, Bittoo could not have been in love with Shruti.. So people if you think that Bittoo is being an idiot for not loving Shruti—remember that this is not the case as this was actually done so that we get more Show time!.. They had to make the movie worth the paisa you spent. ..Paisa paisa paisa (again humming the de dana dan paisa paisa song!)

Back to the movie, Shruti is annoyed with Bittoo and she tells him to leave Shaadi Mubarak (also he does not help his case as he called their one night stand a Session). So Bittoo leaves, he and Shruti become enemies and he starts his own company, Happy Wedding (I wonder what is happy wedding called in Hindi??)

Anyway they soon discover that they are both horrible at their work when they are working alone and the only reason behind their success was that they had each other. Anyway one random client (well not completely random as he was the boss in Rocket Singh) then insists that he will only hire them if they were to work together. They agree and head to Rajashathan to plan this massive wedding.

Bittoo then discovers there that Shruti will be marrying Chetan (some random dude) and he wakes up..Wake up Sid!! …Sorry got a bit carried away—Wake up Bitoo!—He then goes after her and they end up together and voila the end

Now I know the plot sounds really simple but honestly it is a proper masti movie and their acting is very good… Anushka Sharma was really really amazing and this new comer dude was also amazing… And man the music is brilliant… That ainyavi ainvayi song has been stuck in my head all day!. Ok I was lying; the song and the Dhin shak dance moves have been stuck in my head all day!

Definitely worth watching Band Baaja Baarat (BBB).. I will not give it a S&P triple BBB rating though and it will be more like a AAA- rating from me!..
