BackBack Mr & Mrs Mahi hits silver screen today: Netizens shower love on Janhvi Kapoor-Rajkummar Rao starrer:

Janhvi Kappor-Rajkummar Rao's Mrs & Mrs Mahi’ was released in cinemas today, Friday, May 31. Even before its release, the movie received positive responses, becoming the most-selling Hindi title of this year (in terms of advance booking), reported Pinkvilla.

The story revolves around Mahendra (Rajkummar Rao) and Mahima (Janhvi Kapoor) aka Mr and Mrs Mahi, who not only share the same nicknames, but also a deep love for cricket, so much so that on their wedding night, they are sitting on the sofa watching an India-Australia match. It reaches a point that MBBS topper Mahima leaves her hospital job, and starts chasing her childhood dream of hitting the red ball in the stands. Mahendra, on the other hand, tried his to excel on the pitch, but ends up as a failed cricketer. He rekindles his passion by turning coach for his wife and honing her raw skills. But this is Bollywood and a story set in Rajasthan, India, where men aren't really conditioned to live with a more successful wife getting all the spotlight and enjoying a 'star status'. This sense of insecurity, jealously and betrayal make this madly-in-love-for-cricket couple realise their shortcomings, mistakes and achievements, serving us a drama that rides high on emotions yet leaves you unsatisfied with its half-baked execution.
