The movie grips you from the very first scene, which shows the Tanu (Kangana Ranaut) and Manu (Madhavan) sitting in front of the doctors at a mental asylum. During their four years of married life the couple have changed causing them to constantly fight with each other.
Manu is fed up and decides to get divorced. With a nervous state of mind he sends her the notice and a pissed off Tanu comes back to her hometown and meets her ex Raja (Jimmy Shergill) and all her old boyfriends.
Meanwhile Manu meets Kusum, Tanu lookalike at a college lecture. She sings ‘I might be sentimental' in Haryanvi style which causes Manu to fall in love with her. Kusum who gets to know about Manu's feelings decides she doesn't want to have an extra marital affair with him.

Needless to say, but Kangana Ranaut has given stellar performances in both the roles she has essayed, Tanu and Kusum. But more whistles for Kangana's Haryanvi character which she performed with aplomb. This movie will easily see her win a number of awards and may even beat her Queen record. Madhavan may be overshadowed by Kangana in the film, but his realistic acting is very enchanting. He doesn't try too much and therefore is simple role captivates you.

Some may find the second half of the move a bit dragging but not to worry; Aanand has directed an impeccable movie which will entertain you till the end.
Himanshu Sharma who has written the story deserves a standing ovation for it doesn't seem make believe and is in fact very feasible and believable.
