![]() She carries the weight of the story on her shoulders initially as a bubbly, straightforward girl, but Bareilly Ki Barfi becomes really interesting after a terrific Rajkummar Rao enters the frame. ![]() As a result, Kriti Sanon also mouths dialogues like, “Tum kaahe liliya rahi ho (Why are you anxious?).” It’s interesting to see Kriti Sanon shed her urban image and try something out of her comfort zone. Now when most of the primary characters look comfortable with the language and accent, the focus shifts back to the three leads. ![]() She is blatant enough to tell her guest, “Toh chai kyun banwaye, dudh 52 rupaye kilo ho gaya hai, (Why did you ask for tea if you didn’t want it? Don’t you know a litre of milk costs Rs 52?).” His school teacher wife Sushila, played by Seema Pahwa who has become the first choice for such roles, knows her priorities and the top among them is getting Bitti married. Consider his reaction on his wife’s hyper ventilation, “Thyroid me mood swing hota hai, isiliye kich kich karti hai, (She blabbers because of her thyroid issues).” Or when he is rid of a stiff neck, “Sushila se sandaas tak sab dikh raha hai (From Sushila to toilet, I can see everything).” He keeps talking to a mostly-still ceiling fan thanks to Bareilly’s regular power cuts. Such directorial decisions give a mild-mannered Pankaj Tripathi, Bitti’s sweet shop proprietor father, a chance to mumble hilarious one-liners. This love triangle soon includes more dimensions like her family, friends and families of guys and above everything, a desire to show the small town milieu in a loving way. In the pursuit to meet the writer of the novel, Bitti meets two guys who start wooing her. Fed up with the society and her nagging mother after a few rejections in the marriage market, she runs away from home only to find a novel that has a central character similar to her. ![]() Bitti Mishra (Kriti Sanon) is a sharp tongued, mostly agitated Bareilly girl whose break dance is some sort of an event at local weddings.
