Story 

A good-for-nothing Raghu falls in love with a top-ranker student Rituparna. Her highly disciplined and principled father opposes the match, so Raghu must prove his worth to win his love.

Bad Boy Movie Review

Review: The typical Rajkumar Santoshi comedy caper has all his staples. A happy-go-lucky and goofy lout, Raghu (Namashi Chakraborty) and a rich, highly-educated and simple girl, Rituparna (Amrin) fall in love, but her stern father, Banerjee (Saswat Chatterjee), plays the killjoy. If the junk dealer’s son wants to marry her, he must be ‘high quality’ and ‘high standard’. For that, he needs to run Banerjee’s household for a month to convince him that he can provide Rituparna with a comfortable life. What ensues is Banerjee trying to foil his plans, and how Raghu overcomes the challenges.

The film’s first half doesn’t dish out anything new but Raghu’s shenanigans to court Ritu and how he ends up with her father’s demands. Other tropes include how he works hard to make an honest living until he strikes it lucky, which seems too convenient. Things pick up pace in the second half, packed with humour the moment veteran actor Johnny Lever steps in as a ruffian and Ritu’s mama, Poltu. His comic timing is impeccable and elevates every scene with each actor opposite him on the screen. Rajpal Yadav has a cameo but in an avatar that is unlike him.

Director Rajkumar Santoshi navigates the movie satisfactorily, but Sanjeev’s screenplay loses pace intermittently and the narrative overall reminds one of films we have seen too often in Bollywood. The movie is too formulaic with the song-and-dance routine and tracks. Colourful dialogue posters to indicate plotline turns provide a vibrant touch. The movie does have some funny dialogues and scenes but they mostly appear in the later part.

Debutants Namashi and Amrin have good chemistry and decent screen presence. As first timers, the duo shows promise. Namashi does well in emotional scenes and is a good dancer, and you will see a glimpse of his father, Mithun Chakraborty in him. Amrin Qureshi is pleasing to the eye and performs sincerely. While Saswat Chakraborty as the stuck-up father is too one-dimensional and predictable, Rajesh Sharma’s character has some depth.

There’s a nod to Santoshi’s cult movie, Andaz Apna Apna, when Ashwin Mushran says, ‘Gulati main hoon, kyunki mera naam bhi Gulati hai’ a la Teja or Raghu’s father (Rajesh Sharma) says to him, ‘Beta, tu jab jab khush hua hai, main barbad hua hoon!’ a la Deven Varma in the original. There’s also a reference to Namahi’s dad, Mithun Chakraborty when he sings, ‘Halwa wala aa gaya.’

The predictable premise and treatment bring the film down but Bad Boy is a romcom that might appeal to younger fans and those looking for light-hearted drama. One may consider this as a one-time watch.
