Selfee Movie review

I noticed 77% of the population enjoy Selfee after searching for reviews via Google.

I watch this film on Hotstar. I observed Om Prakash Agrawal (Emraab Hashmi), his wife Minty Agrawal (Nushrratt Bharuccha), and his son Gabbu (Neev Ahuja). Motor Vehicle Inspector (MVI) Om Prakash Aggarwal of Bhopal is a fervent admirer of actor Vijay Kumar. After hearing that superstar Vijay Kumar (Akshay Kumar) would be filming in Bhopal, Om Prakash Agrawal and his son went to meet Vijay Kumar and snap a selfie with him. But he is unable to do so because of the sizable crowd of fans. Om is deeply in love with Vijay Kumar and resides with his wife Minti (played by Nushrratt Bharuccha).

Om Prakash Agarwal, an RTO inspector and ardent admirer of Bollywood actor Vijay Kumar, misses the opportunity to take a selfie with the star when tens of thousands of other fans also congregate to welcome him when he is filming in Bhopal. Om is given a second chance, though, when Vimla Tiwari, a corporator, begs him to assist Vijay in recovering his misplaced driver's licence. Om responds by inviting Vijay to the RTO office and requesting a photo with him. Vijay is shocked to discover the media present at the office when he gets there. At the RTO office where Vijay Kumar is scheduled to obtain his driver's licence with the assistance of Om, the media arrives before him.

Vijay feels that Om is responsible for the false rumour that he has been driving without a licence. Om prevents an irate Vijay from leaving the area and reveals that he lacks a licence. The media records this moment, making Om an instant TV highlight and making the media appear to be a star. After that, everyone is relieved that Om did not issue a driving licence, even Om's family members. Someone threw a stone at the Om residence the following day. Then Om's son suffered a head injury. Om is therefore quite stern. After that, early the next morning, Vijay and his wife depart for personal business in America.

Vijay, you can't come with me, your self-respect is very essential to me, his wife replied. So, I'm going to America by myself. And because of your respect, you will be staying in Bhopal. Vijay then resided in Bhopal. Om is in the hospital at the same time when Vijay calls Om. Om receives a threat from him. Om remarked to Vijay, "I am a normal person. What will I do?" Om suddenly reached out to the media, gave a statement, displayed a phone call, and did everything. Vijay then arrived and said, "Okay, I'll leave for Bhopal whenever My driving licence does not change to that of a normal person." Add "sorry to OM for all" to your statement.

Vijay then conducts the necessary tests to obtain a driver's licence. However, Om is being reprimanded, so Om is having trouble taking the test. Vijay doesn't have time to take a vacation in Bhopal before the final round. And it was instructed to stay in Bhopal for one day. Due to my failure on the driving licence test, Vijay has decided to forgo driving. This is my final decision, and Vijay has departed. Then every Vijay fan shows up and strikes Om. All Vijay fans are critical. After a short while, Vijay turned around and saw that everyone had been hit by Om. He then returned to save Om. While travelling, Vijay and Om have a personal car meeting where they converse and clear up any misunderstandings.

Om says that Vijay's licence was contained in the present box he had earlier tossed into the RTO office. Om and his family are brought to Vijay's home, where Vijay chastises Suraj and Vimla for their errors. Before departing for the airport two days later, Vijay speaks with the media about their reconciliation and reveals that he has now received his driver's license. Then Vijay departs in his car for the airport.

All over the story of Selfee Movie is very interesting and comedian movie. I have explain all characters and all situation in brief.
