So, what’s the tea with Bad Newz? Imagine a love story that starts off on a sugar high and then dives into a rollercoaster of chaos. You’ve got Saloni (Triptii Dimri) and Akhil (Vicky Kaushal), who fall head-over-heels in love and tie the knot quicker than you can say "Bollywood romance." But wait, Saloni has dreams—big ones. She wants to be a Meraki chef, and Akhil’s smothering affection starts to feel like a straitjacket. Divorce bells ring, and Saloni scurries off to Mussoorie to chase her dreams.
Hold onto your popcorn because here’s where it gets juicy. Our girl Saloni has a one-night stand with her new boss, Gurbir Pannu (Ammy Virk), and oh—also with her ex-hubby Akhil. Voilà! She’s pregnant with twins, and guess what? Both men are the daddies. The film then spirals into how this trio juggles this bizarre situation and who Saloni eventually settles for.

What’s hot? 🔥
The movie kicks off with a mix of sweet and steamy scenes that make you root for Saloni and Akhil. The divorce drama keeps you glued, wondering where the curveball will come from. Vicky Kaushal nails it as Akhil Chadha, blending humor with his Delhiite flair. His over-the-top affection and comic timing will have you in splits! 😂
And, oh, the Bollywood song references! This flick is a treasure trove for die-hard Bollywood fans. From hilarious moments to nostalgic tunes, it’s got plenty to keep you entertained. The humor and emotions are well-balanced, making the first half a delightful watch.
What’s not? 🤔
Just when you’re having a blast, the plot decides to take a scenic route—one that drags on for over an hour. Yawn. The cat-and-mouse game between Akhil and Gurbir dominates the second half, sidelining poor Saloni. Ammy Virk makes a grand entry, but that’s pretty much it. The film misses out on building the chemistry between Gurbir and Saloni, leaving you scratching your head over his sudden urge to marry her and raise the twins.
Final Verdict 🏁
Bad Newz is a cocktail of comedy and drama, spiced up with a quirky storyline and engaging performances. Vicky Kaushal’s portrayal of Akhil Chadha is a show-stealer, bringing humor and charm to the screen. Despite some pacing issues and underdeveloped subplots, the film offers plenty of laughs. The Bollywood song references add a nostalgic touch for fans. Overall, it’s a fun watch if you’re in the mood for a light-hearted romantic comedy.
Nisha’s Nutshell 🥜
In the wacky world of Bollywood, love triangles are so last season. This time, it’s a love square! Moral of the story? When life gives you ‘Bad Newz,’ make sure you have a sense of humor and a Bollywood playlist handy. Because why resolve issues when you can sing and dance your way through them?
Stay tuned, stay sassy, and remember: In Bollywood, anything can happen. Seriously, anything!
