And parts of the film sink into sitcom flatness, especially when Sikri overdoes her grumpy 'saas' act, though some of her lines are laugh-out-loud.<br/>Ayushmann Khurrana is now well-versed with the art of being humiliated. If it's set in Delhi like Vicky Donor, then he's even more at ease. But in Badhaai Ho in which he plays the eldest son, Nakul, who avoids public eye after he learns that his mother is expecting, Khurrana doesn't deliver the best embarrassed performance. That honour goes to Gajraj Rao as the caring husband to Priyamvada aka Bubbly (Neena Gupta) who has to break the news.<br/><br/>Rao, best known for being a regular on The Viral Fever sketches, never misses a beat as Jeetu Kaushik, the patriarch who finds himself negotiating the wrath of not only his mother (Surekha Sikri in badass mode) and his two sons but also the glares and gossip of relatives and neighbours.<br/><br/>Badhaai Ho works best when writer Akshat Ghildial sticks to capturing the myriad reactions - shock, amusement, anger and scorn - to an unplanned pregnancy in a couple least likely to. It's in the first half while capturing the minutiae of middle class life in the Kaushik household that the family comedy registers its finest moments.<br/><br/>
