Why I did not like TANU WEDS MANU RETURNS.. - Page 3

Tanu was always a crazy selfish character.

Manu was always weird to fall for her. Climax in Part 1 was stretched and so was the case with twmr.

But here in 2nd part, dialogues, performance is top notch. You can't help but fall for Kusum. Pappi was howlarious.

Loved these 2 the most. Datto and Pappi.

If mindless masala with crappy acting can make 100 crores. twmr getting popular with flawed story is all worth. Kangana, Maddy and Deepak nailed it.

the film was entertaining with good performances and dialogues were fresh,original and hilarious and the screenplay too was good but the story was average...Manu marrying Datto and her agreeing to marry him despite him not being divorced didn't make sense...and how quickly he fell for Datto... but loved Kangana's Datto...she was good as Tanu too...

Its not extraordinarily good but its watchable till the end even though the end was highly predictable !!!

I did not like the songs as much as the earlier movie neither the story while acting direction screenplay were top notch. :P

I have a different take on this. I felt Manu never really loved Kusum. Like you mentioned, he was attracted to a mature version of Tanu, but in his mind, it was still Tanu and not Datto.They both were going through marital problems and after that SMS Manu sent about hating Tanu, whatever followed was just ego clashes. Manu was waiting for a call back after that divorce notice and Tanu was hesitant about apologizing to him. It is then that both of them lost their sense and became desperate to shift their interest to someone else and not each other and that's why I also did not have a problem with Manu liking Datto so fast,within a few meetings because the way I see, he was still seeing Tanu in Datto because even when Datto runs towards him, he was thinking about what Pappi had said about Tanu coming back to his life.

And I think the director rightfully gave a resolution to the problem.It was only when they were apart from each other with another woman in Manu's life did they realize that their love for each other is beyond the silly arguments they were having in the mental asylum. There are subtle moments included here and there in the film where the director tries to show that they still do care for each other and they still love each other, it's just that Tanu did not want to be tamed and Manu wanted to tame her and all these problems were coming in between the couple. That is why I find it really unfair how only Kangana is being showered with praises.Post interval, Madhavan has excellently portrayed Manu's dilemma over wanting to go back to Tanu, not breaking Datto's heart and also wanting to make Tanu behave like Datto.

And I might be in the minority but I really liked that Manu ended up with Tanu and not Datto. Tanu and Manu both are flawed characters and both had to be given another chance to rectify what went wrong in their marriage. I don't think Tanu went back to her flirting ways after she came back to Kanpur. Yes,she did go back to Awasthi but the way the scenes were shown, atleast I didn't find her falling in love once again with Awasthi. Rai had rushed through the first film, I liked how he gave a different side of Manu in the sequel and showed that finally Tanu and Manu are ready to rectify the problem in the marriage...now how they do it might be another story for a third part.
But I totally bought the way they promoted the movie- Sometimes to find love, you need a part 2 and that's why I am very satisfied which the movie because it delivered what it had promised.

However amidst so many praises, it was really nice to read a detailed criticism of the storyline with many interesting points.👍🏼

script was flawed,performances were great.

Those physco docs, who grab the patient ( that, of a doc level of educated person ) like any prisoner/khooni and grabs and drags to elec shocks,.. Lol ! Does not it sounds and seems very ridiculous and exposes " akkal ke othmeer " kind of directors' brains, who rather needs more psycho treatment ! Lol

That was Tanu's thought in the plane. She thought maybe the doctors would have been giving Manu shock treatment, it actually didn't happen. That's why she called Pappi to take him out of the asylum. I felt it showed Tanu's thinking process of how she perceives mental asylums.

I just dont get how every man falls for Tanu...if not her atleast it has to be a look alike.

About the first part, i don't think every man fell in love with Tanu, it's more of attraction-the way she dresses up, the way she talks and behaves, usually people tend to see them as more modern(which isn't true), so maybe that's how everybody was attracted to Tanu because she was completely different from the people shown in Rai's version of Kanpur.

agree with you.manu was never really in love with datto.he was attracted to her because she looked like Tanu and didnt overwhelm him.he proposed to her to spite Tanu and then didnt know how to back out.

Have u watched TWM first one ?

Very valid points...did not like the movie at all...performances

Movie was blah to me! I didnt get it! 😆

I loved Datto and hated Manu ( of course love love love Madhavan and here also he did a wonderful job) dragging her to the mandap and dumping her in the last minute...Poor Dattoo...😭...The movie just left me dumbfounded and mad at Manu and Tanu...
