But for a first time effort, Love Wrinkle Free is definitely watchable if you can overlook some of its buffoonery and its exhausting length. It has genuinely funny moments, especially those featuring Chandler.

Wrinkle-Free is one of those films that mix charm and tedium in equal doses. Debutant director and writer Sandeep Mohan creates a clutch of quirky, permanently perplexed characters who are all struggling.

A traditional Goan woman in her late forties finds herself preggers, breaking cosmetic barriers; and dealing with a hubby whose ambitious business idea can spice up your sex life.

Every family is dysfunctional. The Monteiros are just a bit more. Be sure to have fun at their expense. It’s clean indie fun at its best.

On the whole, despite the deficiencies, LOVE, WRINKLE-FREE is watchable and appealing, is humorous and amusing, especially because the director and the lead actors get it right. Deserves a watch!
