The latest Bollywood offering, ‘Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video’, starring Rajkummar Rao and Triptii Dimri, has finally hit the screens, bringing with it a hilarious tale of a missing ‘suhagraat CD’ and a family’s frantic search for it. Set in the picturesque town of Rishikesh, the movie follows Vicky (Rajkummar) and Vidya (Triptii) as they embark on a chaotic journey to recover their lost item. From enlisting the help of the local police to appealing to family elders, the couple leaves no stone unturned in their search, even venturing into graveyards under the cloak of night. Adding to the mix of chaos is a cameo by Mallika Sherawat, who brings her signature charm to the silver screen.
Directed by Raaj Shaandilyaa, ‘Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video’ promises a blend of laughter and drama, transporting audiences back to the swinging 90s. However, the film has garnered mixed reviews, with some viewers finding it a ‘laughing riot’, while others feel it lacks creativity and originality.
One user, who enjoyed the film, shared their experience: “Rishikesh se first day, first show dekh raha hoon. Bohot hi maja aa raha hai! Thank you hamare Rishikesh ko itna khoobsurati se dikhane ke liye. (Watch first day, first show from Rishikesh. Enjoying it very much. Thank you for portraying Rishikesh so beautifully).” Another user, however, expressed disappointment, claiming: “Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video trailer was superb it’s just they were not able to hold the buzz with some bad or no marketing…don’t why they didn’t release ‘NaNaRe’. Song could have increased the buzz.”
Despite the mixed reception, the performances of Rajkummar Rao and Triptii Dimri have been appreciated.

However, some viewers found the film to be lacking in originality, criticizing its screenplay. One user commented: “Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video interval- Meh. Basic flaw in its screenplay, Pehle gags aur “comedy” sochi fir scene likha & they fall Flatter than the earth. 1997 me set hai lekin humour stone age ka even Rajkumar Rao couldn’t save this one. Malika & Vijay Raaz ka song aacha tha.” Another user added, “Bakwas naam ka movie…where is the creativity gone. Another movie waiting to be a FLOP one.”
