Bollywood fans were eagerly waiting for Varun Dhawan’s comeback on the big screen, paired with Janhvi Kapoor in the fresh on-screen duo. The romantic comedy Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari, starring Varun Dhawan, Janhvi Kapoor, Sanya Malhotra, and Rohit Saraf, has now released. But is it worth your ticket, or should you skip it? Here’s the detailed review.
What’s the Story?
Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari is a rom-com that promises romance and comedy. The story begins with Sunny (Varun Dhawan) planning to propose to his girlfriend Ananya (Sanya Malhotra). However, Ananya refuses, revealing she is set to marry a wealthy businessman, Vikram (Rohit Saraf).
Determined to uncover Vikram’s past, Sunny discovers that Vikram once had a girlfriend, Tulsi (Janhvi Kapoor), whose heart he broke to marry Ananya. To reclaim their respective loves, Sunny and Tulsi team up, hatching a plan to create confusion and disrupt Vikram and Ananya’s marriage. Will they succeed, or will love take an unexpected turn? You’ll need to watch the film to find out.
How’s the Film?
The only fresh element in the movie is the Varun-Janhvi pairing. Beyond that, the film lacks excitement. What usually makes a rom-com interesting—unpredictability—is completely missing. The story is so predictable that viewers can guess the ending within minutes.
The first half feels simple and formulaic, giving vibes similar to Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania and Badri Ki Dulhania. The second half attempts some novelty but not enough to feel original or engaging.
Performances:
Expectations from the lead actors were high. Varun Dhawan delivers mainly in comedic sequences, while Janhvi Kapoor shows only minor improvement compared to her previous roles. Sanya Malhotra performs better, but the real standout is Rohit Saraf, who brings emotional depth and steals several scenes.
Final Verdict:
The movie is only worth watching if you’re curious to see Janhvi-Varun chemistry or Rohit-Sanya’s dynamic. After a three-year break, Varun’s return doesn’t bring anything extraordinary. If you’re planning to skip it, you won’t miss much. Filmibeat Hindi rates Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari 2 stars.
