'''''Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video'''''{{efn| The name literally translates as "That video of Vicky and Vidya". However it has completely different connotations. In more formal "[[Euphemism| euphemistic]]" language "woh" often refers to "romantic" or "sexual"; as when a girl says, "''tum bade woh ho''" (you are too romantic). Here the "woh wala video" refers to the "sexually explicit video" which the protagonist couple makes on their wedding's first night }} is a 2024 Indian [[Hindi]]-language [[comedy film]] starring [[Rajkummar Rao]] and [[Triptii Dimri]] as the titular couple in pursuit of their missing sex tape.

== Plot ==
In 1997 in [[Rishikesh]], Vidya, a doctor, calls off her [[arranged marriage]] and instead tricks her parents into letting her marry her childhood sweetheart, Vicky, a [[mehendi]] artist. For their honeymoon, they visit [[Goa]], where Vicky convinces Vidya to record their first night together. After they return, they insert a disc containing the video into their CD player and fall asleep while watching the video. At night, their home is burglarized, and most valuables are stolen, including the CD player and the family's ancestral sword. Vicky lies to Vidya about the disc, saying that he had removed it before falling asleep.

Inspector Laadle arrives to investigate the incident and immediately falls in love with Chanda, Vicky's [[Promiscuity|promiscuous]] but [[Fear of commitment|gamophobic]] sister, which becomes the cause of frequent confusion to the family's naive and bitter maid, also named Chanda. Laadle is terrible at his job and focuses his attention on wooing Chanda instead. Vicky, meanwhile, visits a shady dealer of illicit videotapes but fails to find the disc. He eventually learns about a local flea market where he meets Badshah, the burglar, but doesn't recognize him. Vidya tries to initiate sex and asks Vicky to play the tape again, causing him to run away to avoid telling her the truth, causing Vidya to get suspicious. The following day, a friend alerts Vicky that their ancestral sword was found with a tourist from [[Zimbabwe]], who reveals she got it from the flea market and leads him to Chaabiwale Chacha, Badshah's business partner. Vicky intimidates Chaabiwale Chacha into revealing the location of Badshah. Meanwhile, a suspicious Vidya follows and sees Vicky with the tourist, and is convinced he is cheating on her.

Vicky finds a comatose Badshah in his hotel room along with the CD player he stole, but the disc is later revealed to have been removed. Laadle arrives, causing Vicky to flee out of the window using the scaffolding. He is eventually caught and sent to jail, where he reveals the truth about the CD to a horrified Vidya. Chaabiwale Chacha helps Vicky escape, who goes home and tries to apologize to Vidya, but she tearfully tells him never to speak to her again. A heartbroken Vicky tries to commit suicide by jumping in front of a train, but Vidya saves him at the last moment, and they reconcile, vowing to solve the issue together. Bulbul didi, a local [[Godman (India)|godwoman]], and her idiotic henchmen Sunil and Shetty are revealed to be the ones who left Badshah for dead and stole the disc from his hotel room. They call Vicky's landline to extort him for 2 Lakh rupees in exchange for the disc. Vidya gets the message, but the call is also overheard by Vicky's grandfather and sister, both of whom think the sex tape involves them. Meanwhile, after hearing Badshah is recovering, Bulbul sends Sunil and Shetty to kill him at the hospital, causing Badshah to hide inside the morgue.

Vicky and Vidya break into her parents' house to get the money but only find a stash of [[gutka]] inside the safe, while Chanda convinces Laadle to give her 2 lakhs. Laadle agrees but offers to come with her to catch the blackmailers instead. Vicky and Vidya return home and accidentally reveal the truth to his grandfather, who assumes the tape involves him and the maid, and gives them 2 lakhs he had borrowed after overhearing the call. Bulbul, Sunil, and Shetty arrive at a graveyard for the exchange. Vicky and Vidya also arrive, as do Laadle and Chanda, both parties being unaware of each other. A funeral procession for a Cristiano D'Costa (CD) arrives with Badshah inside the coffin due to his toe tag, and a bumbling Sunil drops the CD into the grave, causing everyone to arrive and demand that 'CD' be dug up. Badshah breaks out of the coffin, terrifying everyone and causing them to run away. Vicky and Vidya retrieve the disc while Laadle arrests Badshah, Bulbul, Sunil, and Shetty.

Vicky and Vidya play the tape but are shocked to find out it is a different video of them on their wedding night, while Badshah reveals to Laadle that he got the tape from a car he stole. The car belongs to Pardesi, the idiotic brother-in-law of Sajjan Kumar, a local leader. When apprehended, Pardesi reveals that Sajjan Kumar organizes community weddings under the guise of charity, offers them free lodging at his farmhouse for the night, and later records the couples and sells the videos to a Sheikh from [[Dubai]]. He also reveals that no one has seen his face before, but he'd be arriving in person for the next event. Laadle intercepts the Sheikh's car and takes his place while Sajjan finds out that his daughter Swati is among the people who got married in the ceremony. A horrified Sajjan begs Vicky to find Swati before it's too late, but the 'Sheikh' runs away with the CD to the audience gathered outside. They play the video in front of everyone despite Sajjan's protests, and it is revealed that Swati was in on the plan, who then proceeds to expose Sajjan in front of everyone.

Vicky and Vidya keep searching for the Goa tape. Vicky's little brother eventually finds it under Vicky's bed, as it is revealed that it had slipped out during the initial burglary. As Vidya rushes to snatch it, the kid throws it away, causing it to land on a passing minitruck playing religious songs and carrying an idol of the goddess [[Durga]], as a horrified Vicky and Vidya give chase, hinting towards a sequel.

Vinamra Mathur of ''[[Firstpost]]'' rated the film 1.5/5 stars and wrote "The film has no reason to exist in the 90s. It could be a film about a couple whose video goes viral on social media. But then, the makers felt hunting for a CD would make for a far more entertaining crowd pleaser".<ref>{{cite web |last1=Mathur |first1=Vinamra |title='Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video' movie review: Rajkummar Rao and Triptii Dimri's 'supposed' comedy crashes even before it takes off |url=https://www.firstpost.com/entertainment/vicky-vidya-ka-woh-wala-video-movie-review-rajkummar-rao-and-triptii-dimris-supposed-comedy-crashes-even-before-it-takes-off-13824285.html |website=Firstpost |date=11 October 2024 |access-date=11 October 2024 |archive-date=7 December 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20241207092037/https://www.firstpost.com/entertainment/vicky-vidya-ka-woh-wala-video-movie-review-rajkummar-rao-and-triptii-dimris-supposed-comedy-crashes-even-before-it-takes-off-13824285.html |url-status=live}}</ref> Bhavna Agarwal of ''[[India Today]]'' gave 1.5/5 stars and wrote "The screenplay is as mediocre as it can get, with the writing ranging between poor and very poor.

Renuka Vyavahare of ''[[The Times of India]]'' gave 2.5 stars out of 5 and said that "It tries too hard to be funny, nostalgic (90s songs are inserted repeatedly) and moralistic but the climax gets way too bizarre for your liking. The film suddenly shifts gear and gets into an activism mode before resorting to horror comedy. Two mimics parading as [[Suniel Shetty]] serve as the final nail in the coffin."<ref>{{cite web |last1=Vyavahare |first1=Renuka |title=Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video Movie Review : Tiring pursuit of a sex tape |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/hindi/movie-reviews/vicky-vidya-ka-woh-wala-video/movie-review/114136020.cms |website=The Times of India |access-date=11 October 2024}}</ref>
