I.M.C.F Review
A routine, yet entertaining DDLJ inspired romantic love story! We have seen many such films earlier and there nothing much new, but the presentation and pace of the film is very fine and will entertain you throughout. It all starts with Kavya (Ali bhatt) moving from her small town to Delhi on some purpose, which is silly, but also holds a lot of value for a Bride, which she is! She then encounters the friendship of Humpty (Varun), who is a cute, fun loving cheeky guy with two best friends, who are always there for him! Kavya is a fiesty girl and after certain exciting scenes, she falls in love with Humpty, for the type of simple and loving guy he is. The rest of the story is how Humpty and Kavya convince Kavya's parents and get married.

The story is pretty simple and obvious towards the climax that Kavya and Humpty will get married, no matter what. But how? Is the qustion. For the answer, you will have to go through this fun and romantic ride, with a spark of Modern DDLJ!

I.M.C.F Rating : 81/100
Direction : 8 : Plot is common, but the presentation is new and very Punjabi!
Production Values : 8 : Colorful film, but not a richly made one!
Story/Plot : 7 : Will belong to the category of 'Routine B'wood love stories', with cute emotions and simple love!
Cast Performances : 9 : Alia and Varun has been crackling. Performances by every actor has been remarkable.
Music : 8 : The album of this film is not quite exciting. 'Saturday song' is a bit fine, but that got confined to rolling credits.
Cinematography : 8 : Just fine.
Editing/Screenplay : 8 : Though the plot is simple, screenplay will get you running and entertaining.
Choreography : 7 : Not much choreography is seen in songs.
Dialogues : 9 : Most of the dialogues were hilarious. Some were pretty emotional too. Good mixture.
Awe Moment(s) : 9 : Humpty's gift of Lehnga and Kavya's gift of Car. Humpty's trial to win the hearts of Kavya's parents.

It's definitely not a modern day DDLJ, but it still ends up being an enjoyable romantic ride worth the price of its ticket.
With two terrific leads, the film works despite employing every predictable trope.
