In a free society the right to critique art is essential and protected speech. These reviews reflect personal opinions and not statements of fact.

What We Think

Veere Di Wedding delivers a heavy dose of modern ideological messaging, often at the expense of character and tradition. It’s high on the woke-o-meter, with very little attempt at balance or nuance.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Hyper Woke

What is this?

The film centers almost entirely on the identity struggles and liberation arcs of four women, with dialogue and plot frequently pausing to highlight feminist talking points. Personality and skill often play second fiddle to lectures on societal expectations, coming across as more thematic than organic.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Traditional family, marriage, and cultural norms are mostly portrayed as obstacles or sources of repression, with the modern, Westernized lifestyle of the protagonists framed as the ideal. Religion and tradition rarely get a sympathetic hearing.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Hyper Woke

What is this?

Dissenting views or alternative perspectives, such as traditional family members or values, are usually caricatured or presented as obstacles to personal growth, with very little sincere exploration of alternative worldviews.
