3.5/5
The doctor advises IVF and they are ready for it. Only hitch, few days after the procedure is
through, Deepti and Varun are told there has been a sperm mix-up with another couple with the
same last name. Enter 'the Batras from Chandigarh' into their lives. Honey (Diljit Dosanjh) and
Monika (Kiara Advani) are a loud Punjabi couple and now it’s a complete clash of sensibilities
between the two sets of Batras. As both Deepti and Monika soon find out they are pregnant,
the rest of the film forms how the couples come to terms and deal with this unusual situation.
Through much of its runtime, director Raj Mehta ensures that 'Good Newwz' stays true to its
genre with several light-hearted and funny moments. Add to that, the pace of the film stays
mostly tight.
Final Word:
At the heart of it, 'Good Newwz' is a light and breezy comedy and certainly makes for an
entertaining watch.
