Good Night follows the story of a protagonist whose habit of snoring starts affecting his personal life after marriage. Will he find a solution to the problem? The story here is a wonderful comedy which taps into a genuine problem for so many people across the globe. There have been divorces for the most trivial things between couples, and one of the reasons that I had heard was the ‘snoring’ trouble. The topic itself was frivolous and trivial that it almost guaranteed a good time while watching the film. The screenplay standing at a shade under 150 minutes does guarantee you moments of laughter and drama that does make for a refreshing watch.

The drama does open with the introduction of the protagonist residing with his family, who finds himself in the middle of a chaos. There was a nice little opening as the chaos around the protagonist was also symbolic of the kind of embarassment that he may have been privy to previously. Soon, you are given a glimpse of his issue of snoring that also results in his breakup leaving him heartbroken and dejected. But destiny has different plans for him while the biggest hindrance being his habit of snoring. And it is here that the writers create some hilarious and heartwarming moments along the way.

The proceedings are engaging and light hearted particularly in the first half. The budding love story was just so organic and sweet that it did put a smile on my face. The contrasting personalities of the couple can be attributed to some wonderful character development that makes for a heartfelt watch. Even the issue that was introduced was more related to the self-victimizing of the protagonist as opposed to being the center of argument due to contrasting opinions between the couple. I also did enjoy the writing that did want to get a little into the psyche of the protagonist and how he dealt with his shortcoming. The loss of confidence was a part of his personality during this phase that did lead to his marriage life going sour, again very well tapped into.

The tone of the drama shifts in the final act with the comedy drying up(relatively speaking), and the focus being more on the dramatic turn of events. Thankfully, the writing is controlled and it doesn’t get melodramatic to a point that would derail the drama. There is a minor dip for sure, but the writing still focuses on creating moments which are quite interesting without losing sight of the central issue. The final act did leave a smile on my face that accurately sums up the screenplay which is very well written and thoroughly enjoyable while addressing a frivolous but an important issue.
