Movie review: 'Laali Ki Shaadi Mein Laaddoo Deewana': Big fat boring wedding

In keeping with its title, "Laali Ki Shaadi Mein Laddoo Deewana" opens with an ostentatious wedding of Laali (Akshara Hassan) and Laddoo (Vivaan Shah). With the back story of Laddoo unfurling as he admits the truth about his life to his friend, Veer (Gurmeet Choudhury), at the wedding, forms the crux of this two-hour plus film. Supposedly a family entertainer, the film is essentially about an ambitious boy Laddoo (Vivaan Shah), who hails from a middle-class family and is the apple of his parents' (Darshan Jariwala and Navni Parihar) eyes. His dreams and aspirations are big and he is in a hurry to better his life and become rich and famous. He moves to Vadodara for better prospects where he meets Laali (Akshara Hassan) -- a simple, principled working girl and they fall in love. An untoward twist causes a strain in their relationship and they part ways with Laali's marriage being fixed with Veer (Gurmeet Chowdhury), a royal prince.
