Story
The story takes place in a fictional village in the state of Nirmal Pradesh, which is representative of any state in India.
The story centres on Phool and Jaya, two ladies who are travelling to their new homes after marriage.
Because they are wearing identical veils, Phool’s husband brings Jaya home by mistake rather than Phool.
Only at the final stop, Phool understood that she had been lost, and Jaya had purposefully accompanied the wrong husband to his house.
When both husbands discover that one of their wives is “wrong” and the other is absent, they begin the process of finding them and bringing them back to their respective homes.
Phool is a quiet, unassuming rural girl who has never been exposed to the outside world and is unaware of even her home address or her husband’s address.
The plot of the movie is about how these two ladies get out of unforeseen situation.
Laaptaa Ladies Review
The story keeps things straightforward and endearing all the way through.
Kiran Rao skilfully develops the plot with her compelling characters, so there is no needless melodrama.
The characters are immediately relatable due to the exceptional writing and execution. In a cinematic sense, the climax moment belongs to Ravi Kishan’s character.
The film’s main focus is on highlighting small moments in ordinary life where women voluntarily sacrifice their personal goals for the benefit of society and the patriarchal family structure.
The film gently challenges you to consider how pervasive gender bias against women is and how it appears to be normal. Thus, a powerful societal message is delivered.

The star of the show is Ravi Kishan as Manohar! his charm remains throughtout the movie especially in climax.
Deepak, played by Sparsh Srivastava, gave an outstanding performance! These three were the standout performers.
Performances of all actors are amazing. Nitanshi Goel succeeded in getting her raw emotions on screen.

Kiran Rao‘s direction is on the spot and enagaging. From start to end this film will take you to a hilarious ride with emotions attach to it and the way the director has executed this film is truly fantastic.
Songs & Cinematography good and easily get into the vibe.
