Jariwala, Rao and Tangri have some of the best lines in the film, and they deliver them with deadpan precision. Several circumstances throw the romancing duo together, under the auspices of their approving families especially as Gattu is considered the ‘brother’ who will help Binny’s family during a crisis.
It’s a convenient set up for the two to meet. Gattu and Binny’s homes are opposite each other on a narrow street. The title of the film, for one, is grossly sexist - it not only defines the heroine solely in the context of her relation, familial or otherwise, to the men around her but it also assigns 'ownership' of her fate to the latter. Watch Behen Hogi Teri only if you think a one-man show is good enough to offset the drudgery of a two-hour trudge through a maze of inanities. The quality of the acting is uneven, especially when compared to the steady performance from the unwavering Rao. But this isn't the worst of debutant director Ajay Pannalal's missteps. Shruti Haasan is completely miscast as Binny, a spirited Punjabi girl whose multiple suitors, real and imagined, cause much confusion and heartburn. A series of misunderstandings coupled with Gattu’s reluctance to own up to their relationship leads to many a funny situation. But he’s too shy - first to confess to her, and later to tell their families.
Gattu (Rajkummar Rao) is in love with his neighbour Binny (Shruti Hassan). One of the first scenes in the film has family members forcing their daughter to tie a rakhi on the man she loves, thus putting an end to any thoughts of marriage between the two.
