Veere Di Wedding might be winning over the feminism upholders and at the box office, but not many are pleased with the movie. Veere Di Wedding stars Kareena Kapoor Khan, Sonam Kapoor Ahuja, Swara Bhasker and Shikha Talsania in the lead. It is about the story of four friends or Veere's who meet for the wedding of one of the girls, and how the occasion makes them re-evaluate their life priorities and friendship.
Veere Di Wedding had got mixed reviews from the critics. Many have praised the movie's bold and brash attitude and its unapologetic tone, along with the performances of the lead actors. The criticisms have come for its weak storyline and meandering subplots. However, many Twitter user have objected to certain bold scenes in the movie, primarily the cuss words used and Swara Bhasker's now famous masturbation scene, involving a dildo! We have already reported how Swara was trolled for this scene. Is this reason why Veere Di Wedding has got a mere 2.8 rating on IMDB?
This rating is even worse than what Govinda's Aa Gaya Hero, which in my opinion, is the worst movie in the past five years, had got!
Or for the matter, Hate Story 4, easily one of the worst reviewed movies of the year!
Why, even the Jimmy Shergill-Jackie Shroff starrer Phamous, that released along with Veere Di Wedding to poor reviews, got a better rating on IMDB!
So what's with the low rating for the movie? It looks like the some of the users just want to give Veere Di Wedding a bad rating to show their hatred for the actresses, whose outspoken beliefs have ruffled the feathers of many trolls and puritans. Just check out some of the reviews below (screenshots taken from IMDB user reviews page) -
Despite the hatred targetted at the movie, Veere Di Wedding is doing amazing business at the box office, earning Rs 36.52 crore over the opening weekend. Like they say, haters gonna hate, we will make hay while the sun shines! Also any publicity is definitely good publicity!
