Bhura's bahubali family lead by erstwhile villains like Ranjeet and Gulshan Grover add to the madness later on in the film. Also thrown into the mix are Rahul (Gautam Gulati), Binny's suitor from France and Bhura (Harry Tangri), Gattu's best friend. Gattu keeps getting bhaizoned from Binny's family, his own parents as well as everyone else. Once Gattu decides to chase his love, situations turn into a comedy or errors. She gets the local girls to tie rakhis to the local boys. The girl, Binny (Shruti Haasan) is bubbly and spirited. But he's never managed to muster up the courage to pursue his romantic ambition. The boy, Gattu (Rajkummar Rao) loves the girl since they were kids. In true genre fashion, the story is based around a boy and girl.

The movie retains a level of emotional intelligence, but in the midst of its uninspiring screenplay, it stays perfectly average. The film plays out like a run-of-the-mill comedy of errors. While its a decent premise for a comedy, the film just doesn't do anything of value with the thought. Its setup in the more orthodox environs of Lucknow to allow the Bhai-Behen connection seem more relatable.
Behen Hogi Teri is a film based on this idea. Where boys used to get converted into brothers and not lovers. Like modern day's friendzone, this thought used to be called bhaizone. Quick take: Perfectly average romantic comedyīack in school, every boy lives in dread of the thought, where his crush comes over to tie a rakhi. That's one rare moment of inspiration propped up by Rao's histrionic skills.Cast: Rajkumar Rao, Shruti Haasan, Gautam Gulati, Gulshan Grover, Ranjeet, Kamlesh Gill, Darshan Jariwala, Ninad Kamat, Mrunal Jain, Herry Tangri, Reena Aggarwal. Later, in an inebriated state, Gattu rants at all the SRK films in which Rahul gets the girl in the end. But under pressure from her family, she gets engaged to a France-based NRI named Rahul, as a distraught Gattu, in the guise of Lord Shiva, looks on helplessly. If not exactly a doormat, Binny isn't the livewire that she pretends to be. In the universe that Behen Hogi Teri constructs, that is exactly how a 'good girl' is supposed to end up. In fact, she admits that she was once a gunpowder-dry firecracker but has now lost her fizz. Early on, Gattu says of Binny: " Yeh normal pataka nahin, firebrand hai." But the heroine does little thereafter to genuinely justify the 'firebrand' tag. The film refers to 'fireworks' more than once but produces none. Its mindset reeks of disregard of, if not outright disdain for, a girl's right to let her heart chart its own course. It is precisely this apparently inoffensive nature of the amusement that it delivers that makes the film particularly regressive. Yet, Behen Hogi Teri, for the most part, might seem like a lot of harmless fun. Mohalle ki ladkiyaan maa behen hoti hai, says Gattu's dad (Darshan Jariwala) at the dinner table. The title of the film, for one, is grossly sexist - it not only defines the heroine solely in the context of her relation, familial or otherwise, to the men around her but it also assigns 'ownership' of her fate to the latter. The plot itself is wafer thin and exceedingly fatuous, when it isn't irritating. But this isn't the worst of debutant director Ajay Pannalal's missteps in Behen Hogi Teri. Shruti Haasan is completely miscast as Binny Arora, a spirited Punjabi girl whose multiple suitors, real and imagined, cause much confusion and heartburn. Shruti Haasan and Rajkummar Rao in Behen Hogi Teri As a consequence, the film wallows in a morass of mediocrity and all its efforts to heave itself out of it falls flat. Solid as Shiv 'Gattu' Nautiyal, the boy who is more a callow, pesky teenager than the man he should be, the lead actor receives little support from either the patchy screenplay or the remainder of the cast. The only real spark in the terribly tepid Behen Hogi Teri is provided by Rajkummar Rao. This film does make a lot of noise around the unassuming hero's struggles to eliminate the hurdles in his path, some of them of his own making, but it says nothing that is significant enough to set it apart from a run-of-the-mill Bollywood rom-com. Sounds a touch different? It's far-fetched too. The protagonist of Behen Hogi Teri is a laidback Lucknow lad so unremarkable that the whole world and its uncle get away with the assumption that he can only be a brother to the girl he secretly loves.
