Song and Dance

The appeal of the Great Indian Wedding to.. well.. Indians is obvious. What is unexpected is finding a different angle into a hackneyed topic. Enter the new age wedding planner – a class of noveau entrepreneur that aspires to take their businesses from the couple-of-lakhs weddings to the multicrore palatial affairs that are the fodder for the Page 3 mill. In Band Baaja Baraat, Bittoo (Ranveer Singh) falls for Shruti (Anoushka Sharma) and the two start off a wedding planning venture. While success comes rather quickly, given a pretty potent blend of charisma, hard work and organizational skills, the personal soon starts getting in the way of the professional, and it remains to be seen if the dynamic duo can find some middle ground and get back on track for professional success. Smartly executed, and with a fresh and bubbly lead pair, watch this one for why the latter have become the talk of the town
