As the title suggests this film is about 3 brothers from Haryana –the oldest Mahinder played by Yash Tonk-Supposedly in his 30’s ( but looks 50), the middle brother- Jaibeer (Robbie Mairh) is the quite, silent vindictive college boy lover type who makes restitution for his past sins and the youngest Jugnu (Aakarshan Singh) a petulant, spoilt brat, an irresponsible teen who gets his way all the time. Their parents are long gone so it’s up to Mahinder to play the father figure. And it’s not an easy task as his brothers make demands on him that no human being can possibly fulfill. But in this film, they get their wish. Sandeep Baswana manages to get his casting right with amiable performances from the three leads lending heft to the character arches, but the wayward, overindulgent narrative is a thorn in the flesh that cannot be ignored. The lack of humor and disastrous musical interludes, alienating, totally unnecessary songs and loose editing stymies the narrative momentum. It’s an exhausting and overly tedious watch.
