After a theatrical run that sparked countless conversations, the much-anticipated comedy Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video starring Tripti Dimri and Rajkummar Rao is finally making its way to your living room. Here’s everything you need to know about this quirky 90s-set comedy that’s been the talk of Bollywood.

Tripti Dimri Rajkummar Rao: Movie Facts

The Plot: A 90s Comedy With a Twist

Set against the nostalgic backdrop of 1997, Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video tells the story of newlyweds Vicky Saluja (Rajkummar Rao) and Dr. Vidya Saluja (Tripti Dimri) who decide to capture their special first night on video. When this intimate CD mysteriously vanishes the next morning, chaos ensues as the couple embarks on a hilarious journey through Rishikesh to recover it before it falls into the wrong hands.

What follows is a wild ride of family misadventures, bumbling investigations, and unexpected twists that keep the laughs coming. Police Officer Laadle, played brilliantly by Vijay Raaz, adds another layer of comedy to this already chaotic situation.

Star-Studded Cast Ensemble

Beyond the leading duo, the film boasts an impressive ensemble including:

• Mallika Sherawat as Chanda Rani
• Archana Puran Singh as Mrs. Saluja
• Vijay Raaz as Police Officer Laadle (widely praised as the show-stealer)
• Mukesh Tiwari as Sajjan Kumar
• Rakesh Bedi as Mr. Saluja
• Shehnaaz Gill in a special appearance

According to IMDb’s official page, the chemistry between the leads and the supporting cast creates memorable comedic moments throughout.

Box Office Performance: Mixed Bag Results

Released during a competitive weekend alongside Alia Bhatt’s Jigra and Rajinikanth’s Vettaiyan, the film had a decent opening with ₹5.5 crore on Day 1, surpassing Jigra’s collection. The first week brought in ₹27 crore, but the momentum couldn’t sustain long enough to make it a blockbuster hit.

The movie faced challenges including mixed critical reception, with a 10% rating on Rotten Tomatoes contrasting its more favorable 6.1 score from audiences initially. Many viewers found the first half hilarious but felt the second half lost momentum with repetitive sequences.

Why Netflix Picked It Up

Netflix India officially announced the film’s digital premiere with the tagline “Apni VHS tapes nikal lijiye” (Take out your VHS tapes), tapping into 90s nostalgia. The streaming giant secured digital rights, betting on the film’s quirky premise and star power to attract viewers who missed the theatrical release.

For fans of Rajkummar Rao’s impeccable comic timing (remember Stree?) and Tripti Dimri’s charming screen presence from Bulbbul and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, this OTT release offers a convenient second chance to experience the madness.

Critical Reception: What Worked and What Didn’t

The Good:

• Rajkummar Rao’s flawless comic timing
• Vijay Raaz’s scene-stealing performance
• Sharp dialogue in the first half
• Authentic 90s setting and nostalgia

The Not-So-Good:

• Sluggish second half
• Random plot elements appearing unexpectedly
• Underdeveloped female lead character
• Could benefit from tighter editing

Director Raaj Shaandilyaa, known for the Dream Girl franchise, demonstrates his comedy chops in the opening act but struggles to maintain that energy throughout the runtime.

Should You Watch It?

If you’re looking for light-hearted family entertainment with a dose of 90s nostalgia, Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video deserves a spot on your weekend watchlist. While it may not be a cinematic masterpiece, the film offers enough laughs and nostalgic moments to make it a decent one-time watch.
