Shruti (Anushka Sharma) is a 20-something no-nonsense girl from a middle class Delhi household. Focused and determined with preplanned ambitions, her goals in life are well laid out by the time she reaches her final year of college.

Bittoo (Ranveer Singh), on the other hand, has no real aim in life. As a final year college student of Delhi University, he whiles away his life having fun with his buddies, barely scraping through his exams.

A chance and inopportune meeting (or as you would call it, fate) brings the two of them together on a tumultuous journey where they become partners in their very own, “Wedding planning ka bijness”. The rules however, are clear: “Jisse vyapaar karo, usse kabhi na pyaar karo” (Don’t mix business with pleasure).

Together, their friendship and business, enters the ups and downs of the lavish Delhi weddings. And while trying to find themselves, Shruti and Bittoo discover each other and realize that in the course of their journey, unke khud ke rules ki bajegi band!

The story itself is not outstanding, but is sketched out so well, that it makes for an interesting film. Habib Faisal, director of “Do dooni char” writes the screenplay and dialogues, because of which this film glides along smoothly, carrying with it the sounds of sights of Delhi. The realistic sounding dialogues have subtle humor and feature a lot of the vernacular Hindi and Punjabi prevalent in Delhi-speak.

This film is shot in Delhi, and is full of its color, life and gaiety. BBB features some very energetic song-and-dance numbers, like "Ainvayi Ainvayi", situated where else but at The Great Indian Wedding, and some light love ballads like "Aadha Ishq". In short BBB is great good fun. One of the best Hindi films of the year, I highly recommend this one.
