Plot
[edit]Aryan Agnihotri, a smart robotics engineer born in Delhi, now based in Mumbai, follows in the footsteps of his aunt, Urmila Shukla, who owns a company, E-Robotics, in Los Angeles. Urmila invites Aryan to the U.S., where he eventually meets SIFRA (Super Intelligent Female Robot Automation), Urmila's secretary. Aryan is unaware that SIFRA is a robot and falls in love with her. However, he later discovers that SIFRA is actually a robot, created by his aunt as a test to see if humans could differentiate SIFRA from themselves.
Heartbroken by the revelation, Aryan returns to India and agrees to an arranged marriage. But as the engagement approaches, Aryan realizes his true feelings for SIFRA. He decides to sneak out of the engagement ceremony but is caught by his grandfather, who encourages him to follow his heart, assuring Aryan that he will handle the family in his absence. Aryan wishes to have SIFRA in India to introduce her to his family, so he calls his aunt and requests that she send SIFRA to India for further "testing" within a traditional Indian family setting. Urmila agrees, and SIFRA is sent to India, where Aryan introduces her as his girlfriend, leading to numerous comical situations.
Aryan's family, unaware of SIFRA's true nature, agrees to their marriage. However, just before the wedding, SIFRA installs a faulty update, riddled with a virus, which corrupts her memory and causes her to forget everything. In desperation, Aryan calls his aunt for help, who sends him a memory backup. Aryan successfully restores SIFRA's memory, but Urmila, who was unaware of Aryan's intentions to marry SIFRA, is furious when she learns the truth. She demands that Aryan return SIFRA, claiming she is the intellectual property (IP) of her company. After an emotional conversation, Aryan convinces his aunt to let him keep SIFRA.
On their wedding day, a blackout occurs while SIFRA is charging, causing her to malfunction. Her speech becomes distorted, and her movements begin to glitch, executing previously given orders that had since been canceled, including one to "set Delhi on fire." Witnessing the destruction caused by SIFRA, a devastated Aryan is forced to stop her by slashing her face with a sword, revealing the inner technical workings and realizing that, despite her human appearance, she can never truly be human.
Later, at a tech show in Mumbai, Urmila launches a new series of robots, including SIFRA 2.0. The new SIFRA has her memory and settings formatted, and Aryan is no longer her administrator. Jiah, a new intern, approaches Aryan and flirts with him. Observing their interaction, the new SIFRA starts to display jealousy, shocking Aryan as he realizes that she may be developing feelings of her own.

Anupama Chopra, in her review for Film Companion said that "Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya is a good-looking film with foreign locations, beach and shaadi songs, stylish clothes and expansive houses and offices. The surfaces are gleaming. I wish the writing had matched".[23] In a similar take, NDTV's Saibal Chatterjee rated the film 1.5/5 and opined "Once the novelty of the notion wears off - and that happens pretty quickly - there is little on offer here barring the fact that this is the first time that Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon have teamed up".[24]
Anuj Kumar of The Hindu had a more lukewarm response to the film, reviewing "Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon submit themselves to a fantastic idea that doesn't quite reach its potential, but provides moments of harmless fun as it probes the state of affairs in modern-day romance".[25] News18's Titas Chowdhury rated the film 3/5 and praised Kapoor and Sanon's "scintillating chemistry".[26]
A critic from Bollywood Hungama gave 2.5 out of 5 stars and wrote "Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya rests on the fine performances but suffers due to the writing and an abrupt climax."[27] The Indian Express's Shubhra Gupta rated the film 2 out of 5 stars and stated "Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon deliver confused film that combines sci-fi tropes with mushy Indian family drama".[21]
