When you have two epitome of Bollywood talents - Farhan Akhtar and
Vidya Balan in one film, the expectation soars high. Shaadi Ke Side
Effects is hilarious, ravishing and refreshing.
Sid is a struggling musician who is married to Trisha. All hell break
loose on Sid when Trisha announces her pregnancy news. As they welcome
the new member in the family, Sid's life becomes monotonous and boring
with sense of failure and insecurities as he must find a way to cope up
the daily problems.
Sequel to fun-loving Pyaar Ke Side Effects, Shaadi Ke Side Effects is a
humorous way of describing the daily issues one faces in married life.
The first half is outstanding and few scenes like sleeping habits of
Sid, being the best father in children's birthday parties are surely
going to bring down the house. Second half is melodramatic but does not
get overboard. Hats off to Saket Chaudhary for doing fine job as
director. Screenplay is tight. Cinematography is exceptional. Dialogues
are funny. Art direction is nice. Songs are good. Farhan Akhtar
delivers again. This is second film in which he plays a comic role and
is absolutely stunning. Vidya Balan is enthralling playing the role of
a house wife with aplomb. Ram Kapoor is dependable along with Vir Das.
Shaadi Ke Side effects is a welcome change for audience with stupendous
performances, nice songs and funny scenes. Excellent 4.5/5
