Shaadi Ke Side Effects is a conventional domestic comedy that prioritizes mainstream romantic clichés over social deconstruction. The narrative centers on the interpersonal nuances of a marriage, particularly the tensions arising from pregnancy and domestic pressures. The film operates within a very specific, homogeneous cultural context. While it offers an authentic glimpse into urban middle-class life in Mumbai, it lacks the diversity needed to challenge established social or gendered hierarchies. Ultimately, the film serves as a culturally specific drama that upholds traditional structures. It focuses on maintaining the marital unit rather than exploring diverse identities or systemic social issues.
