Romcoms about mismatched couples have worked in the past and expectations are similar from this week's release, Motichoor Chaknachoor. Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Athiya Shetty play the leads in the film that is directed by Debamitra Biswal. The movie was in the news over a controversy about the non-payment of dues towards the cast and the crew by the producers. With the matter now settled, Motichoor Chaknachoor is now making its way to the theatres, and we have a good idea now if the film is worth the buzz. Motichoor Chaknachoor Song Kaise Banegi Sarkar: Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Athiya Shetty's Mismatched Chemistry is The Highlight of This Track (Watch Video).
So Ani from Gwalior wants to marry a groom who works abroad so that her wish of staying there and showing off her NRI status. But she just doesn't have the luck. Meanwhile, her neighbour, Pushpinder, is 36 and works in Dubai and can't find a girl because of his mother's heavy dowry demands. At the behest of her aunt, Ani sees Pushpinder as a potential groom, and that's where the fun starts.

The small-town romcom has fun moments mostly thanks to Nawazuddin Siddiqui's comic timing, Athiya Shetty's surprisingly spunky act and the quirky premise. Even the Supporting cast is in good form. The humour is rough at times, poking fun at weight and age, but considering that the characters that we meet are flawed, it makes sense. Till the interval, Motichoor Chaknachoor has been a fun movie, and comes with a promise of having an even crazier ride in the second half.
