Sonakshi Sinha`s latest film Khandaani Shafakhana hit the silver screens on Friday but could not live up to the hype created by its promotions. The film deals with the topic of how sex in India is treated as a taboo. Though the film does not resort to cheap humour and double meaning jokes to comment on it. Sonakshi Sinha plays the role of Baby Bedi who gets the ownership of her uncle`s sex clinic after his demise. The clinic faces social boycott and protests and has discreet patients. Baby`s character is a medical sales representative living with her mother (Nadira Babbar) and good-for-nothing younger brother Bhooshit (Varun Sharma) in a house that is mortgaged. The humour is sparse and dialogues which could have been funny, lack the comic punch. With repetitive conflicts, the story takes an emotional turn and eventually, it gets stuck in a loop. Sonakshi Sinha as Baby Bedi portrays bravado and vulnerability in right doses. Rap star Badshah also makes an impressive debut as `Gabru Ghatack`, and retains his real-life flashy avatar on-screen too. Another debutant, Priyansh Jore as Sonakshi`s love interest, has an impressive boyish charm, but sadly, his character doesn`t give him the scope to perform. Varun Sharma once again plays his usual funny self.
