Tiku Weds Sheru Movie Review: Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Avneet Kaur’s Bollywood dreams squashed by shoddy writing – India Today
By Tushar Joshi: Tiku Weds Sheru may have been a Madhur Bhandarkar movie if the writers had been good sufficient to see the latent potential in its lead characters. A narrative about two Bollywood aspirants eager to see themselves on the massive display, Tiku (Avneet Kaur) and Sheru (Nawazuddin Siddiqui) are struggling of their respective lives making an attempt to make it to ‘filmy nagariya’. The backdrop is the darkish underbelly of showbiz and an perception into the lives of the peripheral characters (extras) who’re fillers in a scene.

The writing is shoddy and caught within the age-old mechanics of cracking lame homophobic jokes (Nawaz says ‘mei gud hu’). Pointless additions of expletives to showcase a sure flavour to the character convey nothing new to the desk as nicely. What initially appears to be like like a case of two misfits discovering perfection in one another quickly turns into a predictable plot of Nawaz and Avneet participating in a verbal duel for consideration.
Tiku weds Sheru had the scope and potential to dig deep and provide a contemporary and distinctive perspective into the journey of two people wanting to realize their desires. As an alternative, it meanders into the protected house of ticking the apparent containers.
Nawaz is sincere in his efficiency, however he feels disinterested and bored at some factors. The character is correct up his alley, however the problem is that he’s accomplished this earlier than. Taking part in an underdog who is consistently made to really feel little isn’t one thing new to this gem of an actor. Avneet, alternatively, has her age to her benefit. With much less expertise, she appears to be extra keen in making an attempt to do that otherwise. The problem, nonetheless, is her pairing with Nawaz, which feels completely off. It isn’t a lot to do with the age hole, however their lack of timing which fails to take the Tiku-Sheru jodi to the subsequent degree.
As an OTT entertainer, Sai Kabir’s try in providing a satirical tackle the movie business has its moments, however they’re far and few. The movie has a novel setting and an attention-grabbing concept on paper. But it surely’s the flawed execution that stops it from ever taking off.
2 stars for Tiku Weds Sheru.
