Another review said, “Just finished Happy Patel. I didn’t expect them to do a comedy with such absurd humor. I liked the jokes. Not sure how it will perform with mainstream audiences as humor is subjective… but it’s definitely better than the same template Bollywood comedies I’ve seen recently.”
Happy Patel, which just ended, was not expected to deliver a comedy with such absurd humor. I liked the jokes in it.
