An amusing movie during most of the runtime about an MBBS doctor who desperately wants to become an orthopaedician but fate has other plans. Due to lack of seats he has no option but to reluctantly agree to become a gynecologist, a job which he hates.( He keeps saying that he would find it difficult to treat a body part he doesn't posess.) Some scenes of his initial discomfort and embarrassment have been done well. One cannot get too much into the technical issues involved and it is only fair to treat the movie as escapist entertainment. Lead actor Ayushmann Khurana is not new to playing characters caught in embarrassing situations. He has done it in some movies with success. He plays this character very well too. Director Anubhuti Kashyap (Anuraag's sister) has made a fairly interesting movie and has managed to maintain a smooth flowing and believable narrative. ( I say this because I could see the movie in one sitting). On a serious note a subplot about a medical termination of pregnancy and its related issues is effectively interwoven in the main plot. Ayushmann is good as usual in depicting the confused young man pushed into a job he doesn't like. Some good support comes from seasoned artists Shefali Shah as a strict senior doctor and Sheeba Chaddha as the single mom. Rakulpreet as the doctor with a soft corner for colleague Ayushmann is charming as usual.
