Janhit Mein Jaari movie review: This brave Bollywood film about condoms ends up in a lecture

Fairly Manokamna Tripathi is an ideal candidate for a ‘good match’. She additionally markets condoms. Right away, that may be a downside. How can a great Indian woman do such a ‘ganda kaam’ (soiled work)? By making a ‘parivarik’ (household) comedy out of it, that’s what. Calling a condom, a ‘chhatri’ (umbrella) is an outdated joke, however it’s changed into a perky factor in ‘Janhit Mein Jaari’, which makes use of humour effectively sufficient up to a degree, to make its level — that it’s no sin to speak up safety throughout intercourse.

To that finish, we’ve a strong ensemble. Manokamna (Nushrratt Bharuucha) needs a paying job. The one she will get supplied, by a good-natured distributor (Brijendra Kala) of stated condoms, has no strings connected, besides a loyal lovelorn greatest pal (Paritosh Tripathi). Alongside the way in which she acquires, at some pace, a boyfriend-who-turns-into-a-husband (Anud Singh Dhaka), a domineering father-in-law (Vijay Raaz), a grandpa-in-law (Tinnu Anand), and a companionable clutch of sisters-in-law. There’s the same old righteous uproar, and the fallout thereof, which we all know upfront.

What makes this movie, a minimum of its first half, such good enjoyable is the writing. It’s gentle and humorous, and the characters do their job effectively, as we see the Bollywood small city (clearly, Chanderi in MP is the brand new ‘It’ city) in throes of a ‘sasur-bahu’ saga. Manokamna’s mother and father’ house is dubbed Condom Niwas, the father-in-law goes blue within the face when he discovers the true nature of his ‘kamaau bahu’s (incomes daughter-in-law) job, the husband is extra a dutiful son than a supportive husband, and barbs fly thick and quick.

Put up-interval, the movie turns into preachy. Condoms should not only for pleasure, says Manokamna to the teams of women she goes about addressing, they’re additionally devices that maintain ladies from undesirable abortions, which in flip prevents premature tragic deaths. That’s to not say that this isn’t a sound argument, however it takes a brave-for-Bollywood, let-us-have-some-fun-with-sex flick, and turns it right into a lecture.

If solely we may get extra of that enjoyable, nonetheless thought-about taboo: essentially the most hilarious a part of the movie is 2 ladies chatting about having it on. Movies grown up sufficient to function condoms additionally signifies that they should be grown up sufficient to speak in regards to the act, proper? ‘Darr ke aage jeet hai’.
