Story: Movie revolves around 4 friends. Mann Arora (Sunny Singh) is the randy Loverboy and perpetually looking for his next affair and conveniently nicknamed Arore. Then there is Gaurav Jain (Jassie Gill) who is the timid and only son whom his friends affectionately call Jainu. Rajesh Khanna (Varun Sharma) aka Khanne is the heartbroken lover and Honey Singh (Manjot Singh) is the quintessential generous Daddy’s boy and round out this eclectic group.
Plot begins when suicidal Khanne decides to crash his girlfriend Vaishali’s (Asheema Vardaan) wedding in Pathankot to declare “I am over you.” He is joined by his quirky friends Honey, Arore and Jainu. Along the way, they pick up more friends Radha (Patralekhaa) who is the innocent Punjaban and the femme fatale Meera (Ishita Raj). The film follows their chaotic trip which is racing against time to reach the wedding within 28 hours.

Durgesh Tiwary’s View: When I watched the trailer of this film planned to watch this movie on premiere day as loved the trailer and big fan of actor’s comedy.
A group of drunk boys decides to avenge a friend’s breakup by crashing his ex-girlfriend’s wedding and seeking closure. However, this impromptu plan leads them to misadventures that throw their trip completely off track.
Wild Wild Punjab The movie jumps straight to the point from the beginning and keeps presenting one hilarious twist after another. The funny scenes will keep you entertained throughout. Each character fits perfectly into their roles, and many comic scenes will make you laugh out loud. The situations created are genuinely amusing. This film highlights that friends are the best thing in life and that there is nothing you can’t achieve with their support. It provides a delightful remedy for heartache. While the film promises heaps of laughter, it doesn’t shy away from packing an emotional punch. It is a perfectly balanced package. It’s more than just a comedy; it’s a trip down memory lane to the crazy adventures with friends that you’ll want to relive. The cast of this film is its USP, and everyone is a hero and everyone excels. Simarpreet Singh has directed this film, presenting an important issue in an entertaining manner, which is commendable. This film shows that even serious issues can be depicted with humor. The director maintains a firm grip on the film throughout. However, a few more comic punches could have added to the fun.
In between, the film also tries to make some noise about pertinent issues like dowry, Punjab’s drug problem, infidelity and workplace sex but it gets drowned amidst the chaos. It has some risqué bits but nothing so vulgar that the pause button would need to be hit if any of your family member cross from there better to use headphones. Jassie Gill story remain incomplete as what happened when he meets with his father with her bride.
Overall movie is a laugh riot that not only entertains but also offers a fun way to deal with heartbreak. It’s a good watch for anyone looking to laugh their pain away and enjoy a light-hearted cinematic experience. Despite its predictability and some over-the-top slapstick comedy, the film maintains a lively pace and offers a fun watch. My view on this movie Recommended.
