Humpty Sharma ki dulhania is the perfect example of how reboots and remakes should be made

Rewatched Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania, which is one of the few movies from the masala genres I genuinely enjoy. Midway through the tone and presentation and the obvious homage given, the film is an absolute retelling of Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge and although some frames and scenes did take me back to DDLJ overall the movie feels so fresh and different despite it being basically the same story. The rooting and the cultural contexts of the quintessential Delhi Launda and throw in the modern punjaban treatment, I found the movie very entertaining despite it being almost a remake of DDLJ. I think it is just a testament as to how the industry can make better remakes or sequels if the just approach it with a fresh perspective and root it better.
