Time pass romcom movie

This movie is made for Thai audience by Thailand director. The comedy in the script is what will make Thai audience laugh. Bright's role shines. Bella is pretty.
Screenplay was average, cliche storyline.
Talented artist with huge fan following was casted. However script fails to take advantage of it. Artists in role did justice. All 4 artist including Indian artist were talented

A Short Movie to Watch

I came across this movie when one of my friend mentions this. This movie actually just a short, romcom and easy movie, when you can finish them in one watch. This movie is refreshing, without any conflict and major plot changes, therefore so easy to watch.

The movie just told about how Risa agreed to be her ex's wedding planner, an unforgettable ex one, and in order to completing this event, she had to ask a favor from her another ex—Tim. There not much setting in this whole movie, just about how Risa planned an Indian theme wedding only. There are several plot holes, like why she chose to be in India that long, and the way she changed her mind into loving Tim is a bit abrupt.

But overall the movie is so easy to watch, we didn't have to think too much, or felt angry with third parties or so.

Cringe Storyline, good Starcast! Had a High Expectation but this fails.

I am a big fan of Bright. I was excited about after watching its trailer. It was fun but I give it a 3.5 star overall, here's why? Let's talk about good things first:
1. Starcast is good: Bella as Risa, Bright as Tim, and Risa's ex Arun and his fiance Monica were good at acting. All the supporting cast was also good.
2. Culture representation: It revolves around Indian wedding, I wasn't looking for accurate Indian culture representation but they did it really well, and the fact that I found so many similarities b/w Thai & Indian culture.
3. Music and Comedy: it is a fun Comedy, Romance nothing serious and I wasn't expecting anything like sense. The song was also good.
now few things that I found cringe and couldn't walk past;
1. Very repetitive storyline: Pretending you have a bf in front of your ex, and then Arun confession to Risa when he is about to get married Monica, dude how uncertain are you? it is so cringe, & then Risa explains to Monica that it is not like that and He loves you and all... girl her fiance just confessed to his ex and doesn't have the guts to say that the wedding planner is his ex. That was not the most eye-rolling moment but Monica shows up to her wedding happily as if nothing happened was. Knowing what happened b/w them Arun's family was so chill.
2. Annoying FL: I like Bell'a acting and she was good at her character. I don't like her character Risa and found her annoying and immature.
Despite being a very cringe worthy repitative story, you can watch this movie for once. It was fun but not as expected.

Just loved this

It has everything I wanted. Comedy, Romance, little bit of drama, emotional scenes everything.

Specially the song Hayi Shava. Ohh my god. I just love the song and its vibes are awesome. I literally heard the song for at least hundred times. Still can’t stop myself. For me it’s a must watch movie.

Both couples are great. Bright is my all time favorite actor. And I really enjoyed watching Bright and Bella together.

It worth your time trust me. I’m telling you, if you’re a fan of Rom com then this movie is for you.

So just go and watch it.

I’m gonna watch it again.

This is a cute, super cliche rom-com but quite enjoyable.

Bright is so sweet and adorable here and I really liked the FL Bella Campen. Haven't seen her in anything and she was funny and had great chemistry with Bright. I liked the whole cast too. There were some really funny moments, especially with Thongchai Thongkanthom. Loved the Indian outfits and bright, beautiful colors. I liked how they explained some of the Indian wedding traditions like mehendi and the sangeet party.

Worth watching at least once.

Full blown rom-com

this caught my attentiom obviously because of bright in Indian attire and gotta say it was sooo fun. I went in expecting a super cringe rom-com but it actually had it's moments.

Some people were disappointed with the minimal screen time for bright, but I felt that was accurate for the story and the setting. The female lead really carried the movie well.

As an Indian, I loved the accurate cultural representation and the on-spot casting. I hope we get to see more of these inter-cultural stories in the future.

overall, don't watch this if you want some mind-blowing story with some out-of-the-box drama. watch it if you just wanna have a good time.

The Fusion You Thought You Never Needed

This was such a hilarious movie to watch the whole time. As someone growing up with Bollywood and a love for all asian dramas, this was a crazy fusion. I already knew the Thai actors and loved them, so I was just in awe watching this. I think it was a really funny movie to watch and just have a good laugh watching! It really is a fusion you thought you never needed. They looked so goooood. My favorite scene was definitely the dance number, trust you all will be impressed by their dance moves. It was wild. Please watch!! It's even better with your friends!
