The film is a situational comedy packed with quirky characters. The scam game in the plot where the boy family deceives the girl family as they hire a ‘proxy’ groom might look hysterical to some extent but does raise questions on the institution called marriage and its reliability in present times. The goofy man, Baankey Sharma carries a ‘dosh’ in his kundali and his ‘proxy’ groom’ Rajesh agrees to the project as he is promised huge amount of money. But when, Rajesh doesn’t show up for marriage, the bus owner’s son is chosen to play a proxy. The so called entertainment in the film is quite annoying and irritating and the title song does hold up the entertainment t some extent. The scenes in the film where the heroine falls in hero’s arms and her getting dressed as a man are highly clichéd. On the whole, Baankey Ki Crazy Baraat is like attending a lavish wedding feast, but ending up with indigestion. Watch it only if you don’t have anything to do at this weekend.

The film is a situational comedy, which partially works, thanks to the talented cast. The humour is clean for a change and that is refreshing. Satyajeet Dubey and Vijay Raaz in particular, stand out for their effortless performances. Tia Bajpai is pleasant, but Raajpal Yadav overdoes his 'loser' act. He hams away to glory and hugs men after every two minutes, which fails to amuse you. The plot is interesting, but the director fails to take it further, resulting in stilted gags that seem forced and repetitive. The background score (the name Baankey keeps echoing) expects to make you laugh, but gets quite annoying eventually. The heroine falling into the arms of the hero, or her dressed as a man and few other such scenes are extremely cliched and inconsequential. To sum it all, Baankey Ki Crazy Baraat is a formulaic family comedy, which you may not mind watching, if novelty is not what you seek.

“Baankey Ki Crazy Baraat” is an irrational entertainer which is as crazy as the title suggests. Treated as a comedy, the film is packed with quirky characters with idiosyncratic behaviour, situational gags and witty dialogues. With a moderate budget and decent production values, the film is technically sound. The title song is racy and is oft used as a background leitmotif to create the sense of a fast track entertainer. Be a part of Baankey's wedding entourage, if you have nothing better to do.
