Veere Di Wedding
It’s hard not to notice the similarities – the outrageous clothes, the profanity, the incessant discussions about men, and the friendship between the women that form the basis for the show. Ghosh and his leading cast make enough adjustments to ‘Indianise’ the film, bringing in elements like interfering in-laws, ostentatious Indian weddings and pushy mothers who want their daughters to either get married or stay married. But at its heart, this is an Indian redux of Carrie Bradshaw and friends.
The Carrie here seems to be Kalindi (Kareena Kapoor Khan), who has been proposed to by her partner of three years, Rishabh (Sumeet Vyas), but is unable to get over her reservations about the institution of marriage. She’s surrounded by three of her oldest school friends. Avni (Sonam Kapoor Ahuja) is a lawyer who can handle tough clients in court but is unable to counter the incessant nagging of her mother (Neena Gupta) about finding a suitable boy and settling down. Sakshi (Swara Bhaskar) is the foul-mouthed, rebellious one who is also struggling with her divorce. Meera (Shikha Talsania) is married and living in America, but estranged from her conservative Indian family because they cannot accept her white husband.
