It’s not every day
that a show brings a big smile to our faces.
In these troubling
times, shows that even so much so as distract us, deserve to be cherished and
re-watched on a dark rainy day.
MX Original
Series Runaway Lugaai is
one such laugh riot. No matter the mood you start the show in, by the end of
it, you’ll be left laughing at the hilarious romantic dramedy.
Wondering why? Well,
the show has its wow moments and this spoiler-free highlight will make you want
to binge-watch the show right away.
Band, Baja Baarat & Demands
Runaway Lugaai is not your
typical rom-com with a happily ever after. This drama has an over-excited groom
Rajni (played by Naveen Kasturia) and a demanding bride Bulbul (played by Ruhi
Singh) aka the Runaway Lugaai. Rajni was supposed to meet Bulbul’s sister for a
wedding proposal but at the very first meeting, he fell head over heels for
Bulbul’s beauty and wit. But Bulbul isn’t your quintessential sharmili bride. From demanding the baarat comes
on a carriage drawn by four white horses to asking for money on the wedding
night, she surprises you every time.

Politics Or
Family?
Rajni is the son of
MLA Narendra Sinha, played by the versatile actor Sanjay Mishra. With big
dreams and ambitions, Narendra Sinha gets his son a job as a judge in a local
magistrate to please the higher-ups in the game of politics. But things go awry
when his son gets distracted looking for his runaway bride. Sanjay Mishra’s
character is obsessed with his political ambition. From disturbing his son on
his first night for a case to dressing up as a woman to please certain
politicians, he does it all albeit in the funniest way possible and with the
best one-liners in the show.

A Badass Bride
Without revealing
much, let’s just say Bulbul has her reasons for running away. She isn’t one to
be tied down to one place or person. She hates overbearing relationships and is
ready to do anything to turn her dreams into reality. We get a sneak peek of
her bold personality at the very start of the show as she introduces Rajni to
different vices and slyly drops hints of her plans.

Naveen Kasturia As
Rajnikant
Popular on the web for
his stellar acting skills, Naveen Kasturia steals the show as the forever
troubled Rajnikant Sinha. Unlike his namesake, Rajnikant doesn’t have a dynamic
personality, but he tries really hard – whether it’s playing an ideal husband
or dealing with his overbearing father. Naveen Kasturia aces the layered
character and the colloquial local language with finesse. His comic timing is
excellent and a must-watch!
