Saw the movie Mein Meri Patni Aur Woh a few days ago. I was expecting a laughter riot but it was not the case. But, this film can surely bring smiles on ur face. The cast includes Rajpal Yadav and Rituparna Sengupta with Kay Kay Menon and Varun Badola having small roles. The story revolves around a librarian (Yadav) who lives a modest life with a modest height of 5'2". He has given up the hope of marriage until he meets a gal (Sengupta) who is much taller than him but they share common interests. Soon they get married n then the husband starts feeling tht all the males around him r bent on stealing his beautiful wife frm him. Also, he fears tht the height difference might become the reason for his wife to leave him. The different ways he tries to shield his wife frm the stares of ppl is very funny. When the gal's college frnd (having a very charismatic personality and above all a good height) pops up in their neighbourhood, our short hero feels tht he has now lost his wife to her frnd. The last 10-15 min are boring with a high melodrama. But, the whole movie is good with a very realistic approach.
I can't think of any actor other than Rajpal Yadav to fit into the hero's shoes (not just the height but to suit the simplicity of the portrayed character). Though Rituparna (nice name) is a Bengali actress, her Hindi is good. Kay Kay Menon is as usual superb. Two songs, one at the time of marriage n other is a ghazal, are very well sung n have really good lyrics. If u r not an ardent fan of typical Bollywood masala films, a very simple movie which will delight u.
