Ayushmann Khurrana shines in Pati Patni Aur Woh Do, but flaws remain
Ayushmann Khurrana’s comic timing and chaotic climax stand out in Pati Patni Aur Woh Do, but the film also struggles with uneven writing. Read on for first reactions.
Mumbai: Pati Patni Aur Woh Do, the sequel to the 2019 hit comedy Pati Patni Aur Woh, arrives with an all-new chaotic romantic triangle featuring Ayushmann Khurrana, Wamiqa Gabbi and Sara Ali Khan. Directed by Mudassar Aziz, the film attempts to modernise the classic extra-marital comedy formula by mixing small-town humour with a full-blown comedy-of-errors setup.

Five things that worked for the film
Ayushmann’s comic timing
Returning to his common-man roots, Ayushmann is in top form. He delivers one of his most entertaining performances in recent years. His portrayal of Prajapati Pandey’s dilemma, constantly trapped between lies, guilt and panic, fuels the film’s best moments. The actor’s ability to switch from nervous vulnerability to exaggerated desperation keeps the humour consistently alive.
