Movie Review: Bewakoofiyaan

<p>This plain vanilla film is easily forgettable with the worst thing about the film being its story</p>

Bewakoofiyaan
U/A: Romantic comedy
Director: Nupur Asthana
Cast: Sonam Kapoor, Ayushmann Khurrana and Rishi Kapoor

Remember the Mithun Chakraborty-Padmini Kolhapure starrer, Pyar Jhukta Nahin? When the poor man (played by Mithun) approaches Padmini's rich father (Danny Denzongpa) who then jeers at him for not earning enough to be able to take care of his daughter? Well, that was back in 1985 and three decades and innumerable such movies later, Bewakoofiyan has the same 'ghisa-pita' poor boy-rich girl story. Yes, there is one difference: here, the girl also earns more than the boy. But this seems like a cosmetic difference because the girl's career seems totally dispensable considering that she is ready to chuck any lucrative offer or promotion for the love of her life and a blissful marriage. Ironically, this is a film directed by a woman (Nupur Asthana of the TV show, Hip Hip Hurray fame).
