Common Criticisms:
The story revolves around Prem Prakash Tiwari (Ayushmann Khurrana), a shy and insecure man who runs an audio cassette shop (a dying business in the age of CDs). He is a "Kumar Sanu" fanatic and a school dropout who is constantly berated by his father for being uneducated and useless. | Year | Award | Category | Result
Under family pressure, Prem marries Sandhya (Bhumi Pednekar), an educated woman who aspires to be a teacher. However, there is a catch: Sandhya is overweight. Prem, embarrassed by her size, refuses to accept the marriage. He refuses to be seen with her, sleeps on the floor, and treats her with disdain, despite her efforts to be a good wife. | Metric | Value | |--------|-------| | Rotten
The narrative drives towards a local "Dum Laga Ke" (tug of war) competition in their neighborhood. Prem’s friends mock him for his wife's weight, saying he will surely win because his wife is heavy—a cruel joke that fractures Prem's ego. The film chronicles Prem’s journey from a judgmental husband to a man who learns to respect his wife, culminating in a climax that is as physically exhausting as it is emotionally liberating.
