Meri Pyaari Bindu

About this movie

Fed up with the lack of critical appreciation despite being a successful writer, Abhimanyu Roy (Ayushmann Khurrana) returns to his roots in Kolkata to write more meaningful literature and decides on an old-fashioned love story – which was now, 3 years in the making.
This writer’s block is called Bindu (Parineeti Chopra). How do you contain this unpredictable, crazy, restless, larger than life, live wire in the pages of a book?
As Abhi says ‘‘You know when a song comes on and you just have to dance? Bindu was that song. That silly infectious joyful tune you couldn’t get out of your head… even if you wanted to.”
So where should he begin? Where should he end?
But when Abhi stumbles across an old audio cassette of their favourite playlist, it sends Abhi down memory lane… and as he waltzes in and out of his past and present through the songs in the mixed tape, he finally faces reality and reconnects with his roots, with his family and his novel starts writing itself.
Of course, life in its usual scheming manner surprises him yet again and changes the ending of his book and his life, as he once again finds himself being pulled back into the center of that crazy little thing called love.
He realizes, that love, is neither time- nor place-dependent….
All we need is the right person next to us and of course the right soundtrack.

Ratings and reviews

Both Aayushmaan and Parineeti have done a great job. The story is unpredictable as the end isn't the 'Indian Way'. I think the movie didn't perform well in the Box office just because of the fact that the Indian audience isn't used to a sad ending. This film holds you back to the reality and doesn't take you to the dreamland and the IDEAL HAPPY ENDING like the rest. This is the first time I have come forward to write a review on a movie and all credits to the cast and the storyline:)

milaya kyun nhi dono ko, array bhaga hi dete nhi to dono ko marwa dete, boht dill se bura laga aur shadi kr li wo aur uper se bacha bhi aa gya uska pati kaha mar gya dikha hi nhi,sahi tha vese pr ek hi shikayat haY milaya nhi dono ko girls will never know that how much a genuine man can love her .. Sad ending, bechara khoosh hota ya rota kya karta uper se 🌧 barish me kya pta ro diya ho, Maja to boht aaya pr samjh aake sir ke🦲☝️ uper se gya ⚰ Kuch bhiiii

Ayushman is a different kind of actor, every movie he does reflects quality, and is unique. This film is not a love story, but about life, the practicality and imperfections. A good story with an unexpected ending. I loved story telling experience of it, it's not a masala film hence it was not a big hit but then as I said this film has a nice story. The music was exceptional, a mixture of old melodies and modern blues. Do watch it, I am sure you will appreciate it since now a days they really don't make these kind of movies in Bollywood.
