Badly plotted, badly staged and badly performed, Mere Brother Ki Dulhan is almost worth watching for the smouldering train-wreck that is Kaif’s performance

The Hindu

The film doesn't always work because it relies too heavily on silly stereotypes and clichés, and because you can see exactly where it's going from the moment you settle into your seat

The story is evident in the title, so you expect other elements in the film to keep the interest going. Sadly there’s almost nothing of it.

A pretty ordinary effort

A strictly-by-the-template rom com

Indian Express

It's all about formula, really. And it's the same old beaten bull

Mumbai Mirror

Not a must-watch. Unless you worship the ground Katrina walks on. Or just want to lech at Ali Zafar on the big screen

Tehelka

A boring extrapolation of the classic Bollywood romance—without wit, craft, good writing or even performances

An outdated plot, a sluggishly boring screenplay and unbelievably daft dialogues

MBKD gives us yet a fun-enough variation on the love-cum-arranged marriage

The Sunday Guardian

If the movie stays even marginally afloat it is because of Imran Khan

India Today

A delectably wholesome, heartening, feel-good entertainer

BollywoodHungama

It is the verve factor which works admirably for the film which doesn't have much to boast about in the story department
