On Friday, the LGBTQ rights activist, Peter Tatchell tweeted about Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan starring Ayushmann Khurrana and Jitendra Kumar. He appreciated the effort of the makers to showcase ‘gay romance’ after the ‘decriminalisation of homosexuality’ in India.

He wrote, “India: A new #Bollywood rom-com featuring a gay romance is hoping to win over older people, following the decriminalisation of homosexuality. Hurrah! http://ow.ly/mcQs50yro76 @TheQueerAsia @beinglgbti @cadrsunilgupta @NazProjectLdn.”

Resharing Tatchell’s tweet, the American president wrote “Great!”

The film has received rave reviews from fans, critics and celebrities. Indian Express’ film critic Shalini Langer gave the film a 3.5-star rating. In her review, she wrote, “Shubh Mangal Zyada Saavdhan’s achievement lies not just in going where Bollywood has not gone before. It is in consistently portraying Kartik (Ayushmann Khurrana) and Aman (a superb Jitendra Kumar in his debut film role) as just a couple, not ‘homo’ or ‘hetero’.”
