After 'Sarfira', Akshay Kumar's film 'Khel Khel Mein' has been released in theatres today. Apart from Akshay Kumar, Vaani Kapoor, Taapsee Pannu, Amy Virk, Aditya Seal, Pragya Jaiswal and Fardeen Khan have important roles in this film. The length of this film is 2 hours 14 minutes and 7 seconds. Dainik Bhaskar has given this film a rating of 2 stars out of 5.

What is the story of the film?

The story of the film revolves around three couples and a friend. The film stars Akshay Kumar-Vaani Kapoor, Taapsee Pannu-Amy Virk and Aditya Seal-Pragya Jaiswal as couples. Fardeen Khan is a common friend of all three couples and is still single. All the friends meet in Jaipur at a wedding and play a game. In this game, everyone has to unlock their phones and keep them on the table.

In this game, if a call or message comes, it has to be read and picked up in front of everyone. One by one, everyone's personal calls and messages start coming. But when they pick up the phone, what happens in their personal life? To know this, you will have to watch the film.

How is the acting of the star cast?

After a long break, Akshay has returned to the comedy genre. He has appeared with his trademark humour and comic timing. He has returned to the 'Hera Pheri' and 'Housefull' mode, but could not experiment with his character. Vaani Kapoor's chemistry with Akshay is good. Taapsee Pannu has tried to do something new in the comic style.

Amy Virk, Aditya Seal and Pragya Jaiswal have tried to do justice to their characters. But they could not understand the DNA of their characters properly. Fardeen Khan has returned to the big screen after a long time. After watching this film, it seems that he has still not been able to get out of the character of 'No Entry'.

How is the direction?

This film has been directed by Mudassar Aziz. He has also written the story of the film himself. Earlier, many films have been made on this subject. First of all, the Italian film 'Perfect Strangers' was made on this subject in 2016. The French remake of this film 'Nothing to Hide' was made in 2018. Films have also been made on this subject in the South. The director has tried to present this film in his own style. But he could not justify the subject.

Akshay Kumar has been portrayed as a modern father who is not surprised that a packet of condoms was found in his daughter's bag. Not only this, he also advises his daughter on how to spend the night with her boyfriend. This thing is very disturbing in the film. This film has been made for a particular class of people. The general audience is not able to connect with one kind of film. The way the film entertains in the first half, the second half is weak in comparison.

How is the music of the film?

There are four songs in this film. But the song 'Parde Mein Rehne Do' from the film 'Shikar' overshadows all four of these songs. This song plays in the background before the couple gets a message on their phone. The background music is also average.

Final Verdict, should we watch it or not?

This film has been presented in a very light-hearted and entertaining manner. If you are fond of watching comedy films, you can watch it once.
