Pyar Ka Punchnama

Author: Dr. Mandar V. Bichu

Welcome to the busy, buzzing world of urban bachelors. Away from parents, working hard, earning enough and eyeing pretty girls in pubs.  Life is cool or at least it seems like that. But what happens when these hopeful singletons get entangled in relationships with city’s pretty chicks?

Pyar Ka Punchnama tells a story of three fast friends who are leading a merry, devil-may-care kind of city life. But then, their life changes when one of them gets a live-in girl-friend and the others find themselves providing shoulders to cry on for girls who are already having boy-friends. Forget sharing and caring; all that these guys get from their girls is a large dose of shrewd manipulations. How’d they cope up with them?

Bold, funny, revealing and shamelessly sexist– Pyar Ka Panchnama is a contemporary metro-centric film.  A tad too stretched and a tad too repetitive, the film still appeals because of many believable sequences portrayed convincingly by a largely unknown team of young actors. Writer-director Luv Ranjan should get a major credit. He seems to have quite a stock of many real life sticky romantic situations and he has peppered them well in the film!

For a moment, this film does manage to question the wisdom of ever falling in love. Isn’t that something?
