Boxoffy Read
Shashank Khaitan's Badrinath Ki Dulhania is the best of the Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania franchise — a film about a traditional man confronting the independence of a modern woman that is more honest about gender dynamics than its masala register suggests. Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt's second pairing has a comfort with each other that generates genuine romantic chemistry. Super Hit verdict on its modest budget.
