**Storyline:**
With increasing representation of LGBTQIA narratives in cinema, Harshavardhan Kulkarni’s *Badhaai Do* takes a bold step into this space. The film features Rajkummar Rao as Shardul Thakur, a gay police officer, and Bhumi Pednekar as Sumi, a lesbian physical education teacher. It chronicles their journeys of self-discovery and coming out.
Set in the picturesque hills of Dehradun, the story begins with family discussions about marriage, a topic central to both Shardul and Sumi’s lives. Unaware of their sexual orientations, their parents are actively seeking partners for them. While navigating their own struggles, Sumi’s clever dating experiment leads her to cross paths with Shardul, a kind and somewhat pampered cop.
The screenplay, written by Suman Adhikary, Akshat Ghildial, and Harshavardhan Kulkarni, swiftly establishes the characters and their backgrounds. Their connection evolves into a marriage of convenience, though not without its challenges. The first half of the film delves into their honeymoon phase and individual romantic entanglements, with the use of songs to depict budding relationships—a common trope in Hindi cinema.
In a society often oblivious, resistant, or non-inclusive towards the LGBTQIA community, *Badhaai Do* attempts to break barriers. However, it does so with lighthearted humor, at times touching on themes like moral policing and body shaming, which can feel awkward.
As Shardul and Sumi navigate their lavender marriage, they must balance their personal lives with the shared world they’ve created. Director Harshavardhan Kulkarni introduces minor conflicts, though these are resolved effortlessly, leaving viewers curious about the narrative’s direction.
