Bhool Chuk Maaf Trailer Review: Rajkumaar Rao and Wamiqa Gabbi's Movie Looks Outdated

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India] April 10: The makers of Rajkummar Rao and Wamiqa Gabbi’s next, Maddock Films, have finally unveiled the trailer of Bhool Chuk Maaf. The almost three minute-long trailer expands upon the premise which has Rajkummar Rao’s Ranjan scratching his head in despair after he finds out that he is stuck in a time loop just a day before his marriage to Wamiqa Gabbi’s Titli. What made this time loop take place? How will he stop it at all?

The trailer opens somewhere in Varanasi, where Rajkummar Rao’s character, Ranjan trying to get the approval of Wamiqa Gabbi’s Titli as well as her entire family, by obtaining a government job. Even as the marriage date is fixed and he prays that he gets the job as soon as possible, something is decidedly off. Ranjan soon realizes that he is stuck in an unending time loop on the day of their wedding preparations.

Ranjan knows this but the rest of the world does not. Even Titli does not know. How will Ranjan break through this loop? This unfolds into unwanted chaos, frustration and comical situations that sends the entire marriage into disarray.

The trailer cut is too long and it runs in a sequence showcasing the entire story which is a big minus point. The plot on paper looks interesting but the execution is really bad. The makers have tried to use the same formula and it is very evident. The chemistry between the lead actors is also very forced and it is clearly visible. The music used in the trailer is also very average. Overall, we can say that the comedy feels very outdated and the acting looks very over the top. 

Reacting to the trailer, a fan commented, “Maddock content day by day Rajkummar Rao acting skill” Another said, “Perfect script for Rajkumar Rao. He can do a single scene in multiple ways, as he has shown in various interviews. This movie would have multiple such occasions as same scenes and encounters with characters may repeat.” A comment read, “Maddock films is one of the wonderful thing that happens to modern HINDI Cinema. Very nice concepts and visuals in every film they create. Commendable.”

Bhool Chuk Maaf marks the third release for Maddock Films this year after the success of the Akshay Kumar-starrer Sky Force and last week’s release, Chhaava, starring Vicky Kaushal. The movie has a great supporting cast which features Sanjay Mishra, Seema Pahwa, Zakir Hussain, Raghubir Yadav, Ishtiyak Khan, and Anubha Fatehpuria, the film is all set to hit the big screens on May 9.
