What’s sizzling

Thank God is like an escalator at a mall, rising larger because it goes alongside, resulting in a plethora of goodies on the finish of the road similar to you most likely get off an escalator and land in a meals court docket. Whereas the primary half packs a couple of humorous moments, the second half actually takes off, brimming with one emotional intestine punch after one other sans ever going overboard, the sentimentality neatly offset by straightforward, laidback allure and delicate humor. Some moments like between Ayaan and his mom, then together with his father and sister, and at last the climax go away you on an emotional excessive whereas additionally compelling you to introspect with some lovely but non-preachy life classes.

What’s not

Again to the escalator reference: Simply as some individuals have slight bother getting onto an escalator, Thank God takes fairly a little bit of time to essentially get going and never till the second half does it settle into its groove. The primary half is not devoid of its moments, however they do not actually come collectively as a complete. You would not really feel bored or something so extreme, however proceedings merely amble alongside, nearly as if figuring out that higher issues await across the bend. Not one of the songs, too, actually work – fairly stunning for an Indra Kumar film, which has all the time boasted of 1 or two good tunes at a minimal.

BL Verdict

Thank God could also be no PK, OMG or Taqdeerwala among the many pantheon of non secular comedies, however does sufficient to glitter this Diwali, particularly with the second half packing an actual emotional punch balanced with delicate humour. Ajay Devgn shines like solely he can whereas each Sidharth Malhotra and Rakul Preet Singh are adequately enough. All in all, a great watch with your loved ones this competition weekend. I am going with 3.5 out of 5 stars.
