The writing shows potential, to be honest. The second half collapses when subplots start to overlap. The background score tries to tell you what emotion to feel.
The male characters are imbecilic Binny admits that she “used to be a firecracker but has now fizzled out” for no apparent reason. It is, in fact, only catering to those who will find these things funny. But then you realize that this movie has no intention of laughing at this mindset.
So when a character suggests that he’d rather bury his sister alive than marry her off for love, you want someone to speak up against him when another character shames Binny for hanging out with boys, you want to hear a smart retort. It is a little disheartening to see a movie that incorporates casual sexism and regressive norms without any plan to combat them. Binny suddenly has two prospective grooms and everyone assumes that Gattu is nothing but her rakhi-brother. But Gattu’s father (Jariwala) spots Binny with his friend Bhura (Tangiri) and one confusion leads to another.
He has loved Binny (Haasan) all his life, and wins her over after a series of Roadies-like tasks.
The movie takes place in a world where grown men still operate by the rules of teenaged boys: they play gully cricket, hide from girls on Raksha Bandhan, put silly curses on each other and ask their parents for money. REVIEW: The title Behen Hogi Teri itself reeks of the immaturity of a 12-year-old boy with a new batch of hormones and the first burst of testosterone. STORY: Gattu loves Binny, but a misunderstanding leads everyone to believe that he only has brotherly feelings for her.
