Mr. & Mrs. Mahi, the Rajkummar Rao and Janhvi Kapoor starrer, is a romantic sports drama where cricket meets marriage. Directed by Sharan Sharma, known for Gunjan Saxena: The Kargil Girl, the film is co-written by Nikhil Mehrotra. With its release today, social media has been filled with reviews for the movie. While some found it inspiring and wholesome, others found the plot predictable.

However, another user did not seem to like the movie that much. Highlighting the “predictable plot,” “no impactful music,” and “nothing to take by,” the user expressed that the film “feels bland, boring and joyless.”
Mr and Mrs Mahi is a slow film with a very predictable plot. With no impactful music and nothing to take by, the film feels bland, boring and joyless. Mr and Mrs Mahi unfortunately deserves only 2 stars. What a time waste this is #MrAndMrsMahi #MrAndMrsMahiReview

Another user by the name Raja Babu found the leading stars impressive. “Initially, I believed Raj Kumar Rao was truly a cricketer, and Janhvi impressed with some remarkable classic scenes. The nostalgic music added to the charm, making “Mr & Mrs Mahi” a film worth seeing.”
