Ladies Vs Ricky Bahl is a Yash Raj’s production that circles around a young  man called Ricky Bahl (Ranveer Singh). Ricky is a conman that cons young rich women through his suave looks and slick attitude. After winning the confidence of the women, Ricky cheats them by robbing large amounts of money from them and disappearing.

 

 

Three such victims Dimple Chaddha (Parineeti Chopra) , Raina Parulekar (Dipannita Sharma Atwal) & Saira Rashid (Aditi Sharma) unite to form the force that would con the conman himself. In order to take revenge and recover their looted money, the three ladies hire an efficient sales girl Ishika Desai (Anushka Sharma). Ishika presents herself as a rich man’s daughter who wants to open a chain of restaurants in India, and for this purpose she is searching for a suitable piece of land. Ishika is successful in gaining Ricky’s attention as she presents herself as a great catch. The clever direction of the three ladies coupled with Ishika’s charm, allows them to convince Ricky to partner with Ishika and lend her a sum of rupees Rs 45 lakh.

 

 

As the film progresses Ricky and Ishika fall in love… As tempting as it may be, it would be quite unfair if I reveal the entire storyline here.

 

 

I would call this movie an interesting but dramatic flick . Ranveer, Anushka and the other actors of the movie have performed well but we must say that at some parts of the movie have proved rather weak. The film starts impressively but the suspense and humour of the movie goes tumbling down as it nears its end.

 

 

One good thing about the movie however, is that sometimes the movie touches the heart of the viewer through its comedy and humour. The female actors of the movie could have been a little stronger and a little more attractive and the main lead of the movie Anushka Sharma appears in the film after the interval.

 

 

But perhaps we should forget these issues and admire the pace of the movie which proves to be perfect for the viewer as it is almost impossible to be bored of the film.

 

 

Music of the film is average and the dance performances are nothing different when compared to other Bollywood films.

 

 

In short the movie is a success with a unique plot and the direction is also admirable. With a few shortcomings and lapses the movie can be branded as a fresh and entertaining watch.

    I wonder why people are getting so stupid and ignorant that they are writing, publishing and discussing such mediocre artists and unimportant bollywood happenings on our leading news channels and websites. I believe there are far better artists in Pakistan who deserve more acknowledgment and coverage for their work. I suggest removing this article from this website, at least from the front page as it is not even worth a single paisa.

      Faizan you are a loser.

  • Adiel

    It was an average movie, was good in the beginning but then became boring, the previous movie by the same team “Band Baja Barat” was much much better than this, in fact it was really one of its kind movie.

    @Faizan – what a lame comment get a life dude. It is a movie review in the entertainment section of the blog page and obviously you found it interesting that is why you clicked on it and read it. The only reason people like you post such comments is that you are unhappy in life, unfortunately nobody can help you with that on this page. I think Faizan’s comment should be removed.

    Bollywood movies are being released and watched in big numbers in Pakistan, clearly there is a market and interest in Bollywood amongst Pakistanis. Ladies vs Ricky was a light interesting watch with some strong characterization, I think the review was very well written and absolutely fair.
