The narrative often feels overextended, but Gucci and his friends scrambling to keep his secrets hidden provide entertaining moments, as Tanishk Bagchi and Suyyash Rai’s trendy soundtrack keeps things lively. Beyond the humour, the film also explores the darker realities of the digital world, touching on fake identities, deepfake videos, and the divide between Boomers and Gen Z, with lines like ‘Repair karna seekho, replace nahi’ (Learn to repair, not replace). It also sheds light on body shaming and gendered expectations in marriage—Baani says, ‘Tu abhi sirf chaubees ka hua hai, main chaubees ki ho gayi hoon’ (You’ve just turned 24, but I’ve already turned 24).”Upcoming ProjectsFollowing 'Loveyapa', Junaid Khan is set to star in an upcoming project alongside Sai Pallavi.Khushi was recently seen in 'Naadaniyaan', featuring Ibrahim Ali Khan in his Bollywood debut.
