<p><strong>Ginny Weds Sunny (Netflix) </strong></p>.<p><strong>Director: Puneet Khanna </strong></p>.<p><strong>Cast: Vikrant Massey, Yami Gautam, Ayesha Raza Mishra</strong></p>.<p><strong>Rating: 2/5</strong></p>.<p>Ginny (Yami) is in a complicated relationship with her ex. “Move on” is a no-no. </p>.<p>But Sunny (Vikrant) is constantly on the move — from one potential bride to another. None say yes, anyway.</p>.<p>The parents are more childish than their offspring. Marriage at any cost is the mantra, though nobody seems to be getting hitched anytime soon. </p>.<p>‘Ginny Weds Sunny’ is the global conference of confused Punjabis. It ticks all the ‘Delhi’ boxes — the unmistakable beats, dhabas, the good-hearted bad boys and the bad-mannered good girls.</p>.<p>Feelings and food are served on a cliched platter. And the one who takes the cake is the girl’s mother (Ayesha Raza Mishra, bang on), who declares that Punjabis are left with just two options — “emotions and paneer”. Oh puttar!</p>.<p>The mummyji, however, does great as a professional matchmaker. Sorry, her high-spirited daughter doesn’t hire her services. </p>.<p>The boy-meets-girl drill begins on the Metro, shifts to autorickshaws and winds its way through Manali. In between, both halt at a gurdwara to fix some daddyji issues. Somewhere along the way, the pair also bumps into Mika Singh, who dusts off his ‘Sawan Mein Lag Gayi Aag’, which doesn’t cause a spark, let alone fire.</p>.<p>Still, Ginny Weds Sunny is easy on the eye solely because of its talented protagonists. It’s a pity Vikrant and Yami are given nothing to work on except a pretty wardrobe.</p>.<p>Finally, the manipulative (but well-meaning, mind you) parents and their ever-confused wards accomplish the big fat wedding, complete with some Manyavar marketing moments. Wish the elaborate spread had some meat too.</p>
