Do you know that feeling when one reads a fairytale, or sees a cartoon and something terrible is happening?
Like when the princess is kidnapped? Or Tom has caught Jerry?
And in spite of knowing that, you also know in a happy nook of your heart, that just around the corner is happiness again.
Well, this movie is just like that.
A terrible thing happens to 2 newly wed couples and you know immediately, this silly fracas will be over soon, but you want to know how it shall resolve itself.
The journey is so engrossing.
Kiran Rao, comandeers this vehicle and hooks your attention. There are characters galore, but of course, Ravi Kishen enthralls you. His turn here will remind you of another of his excellent performances, in Welcome to Sajjanpur.
Both the brides, are brilliant. Kiran Rao deserves a lot of kudos, for drawing out their talent. I hope she doesn't make us wait too long for her next one. (It has been 14 years since Dhobi Ghat!)
What is a good journey without good music? And that is there as well, in the background at times, and marching alongside the story at other times. Pay attention to the lyrics and you will be enchanted.
Some of the story may feel cheesy, but so what, we all need a little of that occasionally.
The interactions amongst the cops and the affection shared by the ladies worked well for me. Note the details that have been infused to establish the time period.
The little patterns that Kiran Rao makes are worth watching out for. She did the same in Dhobi Ghat and
my favorite in this one was what she has done with the names. Let me know if you spot it.
All in all a good watch on #netflix .
A good way to spend a Saturday evening, unless low scoring IPL games are your jam. ☺️😊☺️😊☺️
