‘Miss Shetty Mr Polishetty’ movie review: Anushka Shetty, Naveen Polishetty shoulder a simple urban romance with fun moments – The Hindu

The makers of Miss Shetty Mr Polishetty may need determined to maintain it easy, elegant and play protected from the phrase go. The romance drama brings collectively two folks with totally different outlooks on relationships, marriage and parenthood, laced with lots of humour, a few of which is sensible and a few of it simply primary. The lead actors — Naveen Polishetty together with his impeccable comedian timing and Anushka Shetty who’s all poise — make the movie with a predictable story moderately pleasing. 

Anvita Shetty (Anushka Shetty) is a masterchef who strikes to Hyderabad from the UK after a flip of occasions. All the pieces round her is of restrained classiness, identical to the peerlessly plated dishes from her kitchen. To borrow from a stand-up comedy line that comes elsewhere within the movie, her world is just like the roasted aubergine delicately topped with spices as in opposition to the greasy, spicy vankaya (brinjal) bajji that Sidhu Polishetty (Naveen Polishetty) is habituated to. 

Director Mahesh Babu’s story makes the 2 cross paths in a ‘what if’ state of affairs. She is shy of romance and marriage however needs to turn out to be a mom to fill the void in her life. She is looking out for a sperm donor with likeable character traits. He is likely one of the a number of guys we’d have seen round us — studied engineering, has a boring IT job and finds happiness in an artwork type. In Sidhu’s case, it’s stand-up comedy.

Miss Shetty Mr Polishetty primarily focuses on Anvita, Sidhu and their contrasting concepts about relationships with a subplot that roots for stand-up comedy. Naveen Polishetty’s aptitude for humour is on full show and he makes even a number of the weakly-written segments appear enjoyable. The movie perks up after his entry and the humorous traces preserve coming at common intervals, when he’s speaking to his mother and father (Murali Sharma and Tulasi), his colleagues or to Anvita. Some jokes appear to have been rehashed from stand-up comedian occasions however he makes them work.

As soon as the 2 characters are established, we all know the trajectory of the story. The makers persist with the tried and examined template of miscommunication, confusion and determination. The sheer predictability is a letdown and added to that, the shortage of emotional depth. For example, whereas the rationale for Anvita shying away from relationships is spelt out, we by no means actually perceive its gravity. The age hole between the 2 leads can also be explored at a superfluous stage. Why the age hole is critical or what distinction would it not have made had she not been older than him, isn’t actually explored. All this retains us from rooting for his or her characters.
