This film took the taboo subject of polyandry (one wife, two husbands) and turned it into a laugh riot. A childless woman (Sargun) is pushed by her husband (Ammy) to marry his younger brother (Nimrat Khaira’s debut) to produce an heir. Chaos ensues when she actually develops feelings for both.
⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5) 2. Maujaan Hi Maujaan (Released: June 2022) Starring: Gippy Grewal, Sargun Mehta, Binnu Dhillon, Tanu Grewal Director: Smeep Kang
This is the best film of 2022, artistically. The screenplay is tight—you feel the ticking clock. Sargun Mehta, as the grieving mother, delivers silence better than most actors deliver dialogues. The film doesn’t glorify Punjab’s problems; it exposes them. The use of real locations in rural Punjab adds authenticity. The only "problem" is that it’s a difficult watch. You will cry. You will feel angry. It is not a date-night movie. But for those seeking substance, Zindagi Zindabaad is a masterpiece. It closed 2022 on a poignant note, reminding everyone that Pollywood can do serious cinema just as well as comedy.
