Befikre Movie Reviews of popular film critics…
Ratings:1.5/5 Review By:Raja Sen Site:Rediff
At a point when our mainstream cinema is beginning to grow up, Befikre is painfully childish drivel that proves to be a maddening waste of time. It starts out shrill, turns predictable, and ends up chaotic. To use the language of the youth Aditya Chopra is attempting to speak, let’s call it Befi-cray-cray.

Although Ranveer’s chemistry with the statuesque Vaani Kapoor is middling at best, the two leads deliver passable performances. Unfortunately, Befikre has no plot worth the name to lift the emotional tug-of-war between the protagonists out of the morass of monotony. The young couple hook up, break up and hook up again for reasons that are as slight as they are arbitrary.So Befikre is a love story with a slight difference. If only it had more story and less love, it might have been a much better and more rounded film.

Just like the adventure sport like bunjee jumping, it’s a rocky ride. There are some great moments, but largely insipid ones.Their decision to hook up, make up, then hook up again is as old as the green hills in France, and the twists are painfully predictable. But it’s the comic scenes that keep this romantic comedy afloat. Watch this film if you are fan of syrupy romances or Ranveer Singh’s groupie. Otherwise, jump into this at your own risk.
Befikre Box Office Prediction
Befikre is expected to do well, but will it be another DLLJ? No way!
What’s Hot:
Aditya Chopra’s track record while making films
Ranveer Singh is in top form (and so is his brand value)
Great music, and its shot in France (so expect great locales)
What’s Not:
Poor response to promo (actually not much was revealed in the promos)
Why Vaani Kapoor (nothing personal against her)…and not Deepika, Anushka, Alia (its a big budget film)?
Cast: Ranveer Singh, Vaani Kapoor
Director: Aditya Chopra
Producer: Yash Raj Films (YRF)
Verdict: Befikre is expected to rake in 9.5 crore INR on Friday.
