Wedding Pullav shows the story of two best friends, Aditya, a.k.a. Adi, and Anushka, who are in love but unaware of it. When Anushka is invited to attend Adi's wedding, this love confusion further increases. On one hand, Adi is jealous of Anushka's boyfriend, while on the other, Anushka does not like Adi's marriage to another girl whom she initially praises. The story then moves to a stage where they know their feelings but are not sure what to do next.

Nandini Ramnath of Scroll.in wrote "The insipid writing, functional performances by an ensemble cast that includes Satish Kaushik, Kitu Gidwani and Parmeet Sethi, and contrived emotions add up into a stale serving of a cinematic sub-category that has run its course". [3] Raktim Rajpal from News18 India says "To cut a long story short, ‘Wedding Pullav’ is a stale and boring attempt at storytelling. Stay away from it at all costs". [4] Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express wrote "However, some credit must be given to ‘Chintuji’ for enacting his bit with absolutely sincerity. The music, which has been composed by Salim Sulaiman, is decent. The title track is the pick of the lot. The same sadly can’t be said about the editing. The film’s opening sequence as well as its climax feel like a stretch. They could have been shortened". [5]
