*Noorani Chehre* (2023) is a light-hearted comedy revolving around Jogi Pratap (Nawazuddin Siddiqui), a wedding planner, and Dimple Chaubey (Neha Sharma), a woman who gatecrashes a wedding and drunkenly sings "Shaadi toh haigi torture." After a chance encounter, Dimple seeks Jogi’s help to call off her impending marriage to Lallu (Mimoh Chakraborty), a well-meaning but clueless railway employee. Jogi, who is also against marriage, reluctantly agrees, leading to a series of funny and outrageous attempts to stop the wedding. These range from faking Dimple's pregnancy to orchestrating a fake kidnapping—all in a humorous and unconventional way.

The film’s charm lies in its witty dialogue and light-hearted approach, blending absurd situations with clever humor. At its core, *Noorani Chehre* makes a subtle case for women empowerment. Dimple challenges societal norms by asking Lallu to buy her sanitary pads, showcasing how even seemingly small actions can be a rebellion. The female characters, including Jogi’s mother and sister, are refreshingly independent and unapologetic in their choices, whether it’s smoking beedis, drinking, or living life on their terms.

The supporting cast, including Farrukh Jaffar as Dimple’s sharp-tongued grandmother and Zarina Wahab as Jogi’s caring but strong mother, adds depth and warmth to the narrative. Mimoh Chakraborty, who takes on a comic role as Lallu, does well but could use some polish in his comedic timing. Sanjay Mishra shines in a brief but memorable role as the leader of a gang of kidnappers experiencing a recession.

Neha Sharma brings a lot of energy to the role of Dimple, delivering a performance full of spunk and good comedic timing. Her chemistry with Nawazuddin Siddiqui is refreshing, as they share a budding friendship rather than a traditional romantic arc. Nawazuddin, known for his intense dramatic roles, showcases his versatility with a delightful comedic performance as Jogi, the master of quirky solutions.

The film leans heavily on local humor and one-liners, which may feel predictable at times, but it maintains a solid pace and provides clean, family-friendly entertainment. It’s a comedy that doesn’t rely on crass humor or double entendres, which makes it a rare find in today’s film landscape. Despite some slower sections, *Noorani Chehre* succeeds in delivering an enjoyable and heartwarming experience, perfect for a light evening watch.
