The CinePearl Take

The film’s biggest triumph is its willingness to place a trans narrative at the centre of a commercial romance without resorting to melodrama. Ayushmann Khurrana delivers a restrained, empathetic turn, while Vaani Kapoor shines as a confident, unapologetic Zumba instructor. The pacing is breezy, allowing the comedy to breathe while the emotional beats land with genuine impact. Ultimately, it’s a celebration of self‑acceptance that resonates beyond its Mumbai‑to‑Chandigarh setting.
