The film’s biggest flaw is its runtime. At nearly three hours, "Happy New Year" drags significantly in the second half. The central premise—that a team of non-dancers can fool the world at an international competition—is hard to swallow, even by the suspended logic of Bollywood cinema. The humor often relies on cheap jokes—mocking the hearing impaired, making fun of stammering, and endless gay-panic jokes—that feel outdated for a film released in 2014. Furthermore, the emotional core of the story (the father-son dynamic) feels forced and manipulative rather than heartfelt. happy new year movie by foumoviescom updated
