Mister Mummy Twitter Review

A decade later, the audience saw Ritesh Deshmukh and Genelia D'Souza together on screen after their romantic comedy Tere Naal Love Ho Gaya that released in 2012. The audience expected a lot from the film but turns out that the movie failed to impress them.

A Twitter user wrote,"#MisterMummy is the classic case of movies getting lost in translation in the journey from script to screen. A whacky subject is terribly staged, directed & edited. Mahesh Manjrekar & Rakesh Bedi are some respite but my god even the 1.38 hour duration was a struggle". Another one wrote, "Watching that Ritesh Deshmukh film called mister mummy yes I like torturing myself"

The audience was also disappointed with the limited shows available for the film as this Twitter user wrote, "#MisterMummy seems like a TOKEN release in cinemas.. even in #Maharashtra film has hardly any shows ! #RiteishDeshmukh #Genelia". Some viewers found the short duration of the film disappointing as this user wrote, "#mistermummy is only 1.38 hour movie. Means mazak ho rha hai kya. Bhai itni jara c der ke liye movie dekhne kaun jata hai. Kam se Kam 2 hour me hona tha."

The movie was a disappointment considering that it marks the return of everyone's favourite couple Ritesh Deshmukh and Genelia D'Souza on screen. A user wrote, "#MisterMummy ka bhi kuch pta ni @Riteishd kuch post ni kr rha @taran_adarsh chacha ne bhi koi post ni ki or na hi @kamaalrkhan chacha ne" which might indicate that even the actors are not impressed by the script.
