Pyaar ka Punchnama yearns to be different from the usual fare, and it manages to succeed to an extent as it showcases the everyday life of young guys living on their own without any help from their parents.The film focuses on the life of three men who are desperately trying to get into a relationship. Despite not having any well-known actors, the relatively inexperienced cast does a wonderful job with all the roles being memorable. During the second half of the movie, there is an almost five-minute long monologue magnificently delivered on the various problems that occur during relationships.The first half breezes along at a good pace and raises the expectation of the movie. However, the second half features some needless melodrama that dampens the overall impact of the movie. A major flaw in Pyaar ka Punchnama is the misogynistic tone. All of the women in the movie are portrayed as villains and are completely one-dimensional. The lack of empathy and courtesy shown by the female characters seems unrealistic.Apart from certain shortfalls, Pyaar ka Punchnama delivers an entertaining movie that is different from the mindless Masala movies that are offered by Bollywood. The acting, direction and dialogs are the highlights of this must-watch movie.

I came to know about this movie from my cousin while we were hanging out at his place and i was reading out the names of the movies he had in his computer. At the name of this movie he said and i quote "this movie should be included in the course taken in any school, college and university" because of its authenticity and i was like OK it cant be that true. Not being a fan of love stories i considered it to be a big slob However i started watching this movie and in the start i thought it to be like every other movie as Indian makes, a typical love story of young generation with a slight Delhi Belly mixture in it but after seeing the first thirty minutes of this movie i was glued to my Television, the reason being that this movie portrays the relationship stages so well that after every other scene i was having nostalgic memories which reminded me my time in a relationship. Every story in this movie was based on actual stages that comes in a normal boy's relationship, the start being happy and filled with excitement, then comes the trouble when you start expecting more from your better half and then the boy comes to face the ugly truth of a relationship, how women use every other argument in their favor when it is supporting them and ignoring it when it comes in favor of the boys. The fact that this movies represents all the boys and their problem is reinforced by the fact that girls do not generally tend to like this movie because they again think from their own perspective. This movie has drama, emotion, gentle comedy and all in all a complete entertainer. A must watch.

Most of the stories, be it the great Hollywood, the bright Bollywood or good old novels, usually start and stay focused on the the issues of how a woman is usually the victim. It is about emotional exploitation or tragedy associated with a woman. How she is tormented and how she suffers and all that. At the most the pendulum swings half way and delivering a happy ending. For the first time, so honestly a story been told of how men too are a total emotional wreck. Let's face it boys. We are definitely susceptible and there is absolutely no harm in accepting it. I enjoyed the movie for it's so realistic believable story, characters and even the details like the behaviour of each individuals in given situation. Contrary to what the film critics may say, I give this film 9/10. There is no over dose of over acting and false emotions. There is no useless car chase or gun fights or 'action' per say. My key word for this movie is, 'believable'. The story definitely reflects a lot of the modern day men (or boys). Those who are objecting and finding it offensive and playing the feminist harp hear, please don't waste your time ladies. You have had more then your fair share of the sympathy. Now let the boys tell their side of the story. Boys, go watch it. Enjoy it and definitely learn from it. I strongly recommend this movie, not with your girl friend, but with other boys. Have fun.

I loved watching this movie. I read some negative reviews/comments, they are just lame, don't worry about them. Watch this movie if you get the opportunity. Dialogues and monologues are just superb. The character of Nishant Agrawal was very well played. Charu bashing up Nishant was a very intense scene (real fireworks). Nishat took the punches very well. These days' real life love stories are lust and power driven (materialistic), this is very well depicted in this movie. Most of the time guys while dealing with attractive female put their brain between their legs, with lots of blood following in the wrong direction the heart becomes soft and then falling in trouble is easy. You can't expect guys to be smart (emotionally balanced) at everything when their primary focus is on career. The Director got the best out the actors/actresses. Very well written and directed. Songs were just fine. I don't think it can be done better. Well done Luv Ranjan and Team.
