Laapataa Ladies is a beautiful, brilliant, and outstanding movie with such real and touching emotions and humourous dialogues.
The storyline has an important message on how women should be respected and treated respectfully. The screenplay was perfect and outstanding. There was no over-dramatic anywhere just simple problem finished simple solution.
