The film commences with a tagline suggesting that “Marriage is an institution, but who desires to reside in an institution?” This tagline appears to cater to the younger generation who shun commitment. The storyline revolves around a couple teetering on the brink of separation, engaging in extramarital affairs with two alluring outsiders. However, a familial funeral visit unexpectedly alters their dynamics, momentarily bringing them together as they contemplate revealing their secrets and parting ways. Yet, life has unforeseen plans in store for them. Assessing the film as a whole, it unfolds at a leisurely pace with minimal excitement. Initially, there’s confusion regarding the relationships, but clarity emerges as the narrative progresses. Although lacking in thrills, the film incorporates witty one-liners and comedic exchanges that induce laughter. Notably, certain scenes stand out, such as Pratik Gandhi’s ingenious football ruse to convince Ileana D’Cruz. Vidya Balan delivers a compelling performance, particularly in poignant interactions with her father and the climactic scene where Ileana reveals Pratik’s intentions, evoking genuine helplessness and frustration.
Pratik Gandhi impressively transitions from serious to comedic roles, complementing Vidya Balan’s powerhouse performance. Sendhil Ramamurthy’s portrayal adds allure and sophistication, leaving audiences eager for his return to the silver screen. However, the film’s drawbacks include its sluggish pace and initial confusion, while the ambiguous ending leaves unanswered questions regarding Pratik’s relationship resolution with Ileana’s character. Overall, “Do Aur Do Pyaar” offers a single viewing experience, marking it as an average film.
