The title of the movie (‘Do Diwane Seher Mein’) goaded me to watch this new-gen movie; The opening line of the popular movie song of yesteryears, ‘Gharaonda’.

Please note the spelling ‘h’ is missing in ‘Sheher’ because the hero cannot spell ‘sh’ but only as ‘s’. God, is this a great problem today among Millennials and of Gen Z?

The hero, Shashank, a successful IT professional, but his problem is that he cannot pronounce ‘sh’ either in his name or of his family chosen bride, Roshni) forms the major content of the story. Actually, that is not. Well, Roshni too has a complex that she feels that she ‘looks better’ with big spectacles. How stupid of a girl who is said to be a content writer for a fashion magazine?

These two youngsters hate-love-hate-love keep shifting and galloping till the end of this movie. Big yawn!

Do the present gen youngsters love-hate-love alternate like this and, finally, settle in their relationships and lives? If so, I feel really sorry for them. 

I cannot but recall the movie ‘Gharaonda’ from where the popular Bhupendar Singh, Runa Laila’s song’s first line has been chosen as the title. That film was released in 1977. That movie was also contemporary at that time, but, with sense…but this one, in the present milieu, projected the lives of whimsical youth. If that was the objective of the makers, they have done their job well. 

Luckily, the hero and heroine don’t look bad; Siddhanth Chaturvedi and Mrunal Thakur.  

I could understand the lives of Gen Z or millennials (call it the way you like), which I don’t envy. I find them to be a thoroughly idiosyncratic and confused lot.
