(3.5 / 5)

A power packed performance from Priyanka Chopra and Prakash Jha, actor and director of the movie. Somewhat I felt Prakash Jha over shadowed Priyanka Chopra with his excellent and outstanding performance. It doesn’t mean that Priyanka is something less, she has become a new level in the race of Indian Actresses. Achievements one after another is taking her to the top of the world. Our usual male heroic icon is always the lead in every Bollywood movie, but actresses like Priyanka Chopra, Deepika Padukon, Vidya Balan and many more are setting an example that women can also be an iconic hero in the movie and can take the movies to next level.

The story is all about the Police Force and crime rooted in Central part of India with the toppings of corruption and dirty politics. Story is taking us towards a message that, Police will reform themselves as required as per situation and one day as always the truth will succeed over the evil. A village where Manav Kaul as local MLA and Ninad Kamat as his brother ruled the whole constitution by their power and money. Harassing poor villagers to sell their farms in cheap rates to build factories and industries leading to various cruelties and murders. Priyanka rise up there as an honest and powerful police officer and fight against these evils by bringing the corrupt officers to the correct way.

Commendable acting by Ninad Kamat and Manav Kaul that audience will really hate them, such a powerful evilness is shown in the movie.

Overall, it is a must watch for Prakash Jha and Priyanka Chopra’s performance.

It is piece of an art portraying epic Indian History of an unbeatable warrior Baji Rao Ballal Balaji Bhat. This film is one of the dream project of director Sanjay Leela Bhansali and it was in development from last 15 years after he made his all-times hit Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam. After so much of changes in script, casting and lot of hardwork finally it is released now in the end of 2015.

This movie is filmed with extensive big sets in combination of high quality VFX graphics. You can expect vast scenes of wars and landscapes along with very beautiful palaces. A magic of artwork and colors is developed by the set built as Shanivaarbada the palace of Bajirao Peshwa (Prime Minister) of Chatrapati Sahu Maharaj.

Ranveer Singh is completely gelled up in the role by that bald look exactly as the genre of Marathas. His hard work is exemplary the way he followed the flawless Marathi accent along with body language and expressions.

Deepika Padukone is looking gorgeous as Mastani and an outstanding performance from her, the way she is fighting in the war, the way she performs all the dances, her dialogue delivery and soulful acting. Somewhere I found she overshadow Ranveer Singh in terms of performance. The song Deewani Mastani is filmed in such a grace that it will mesmerize you with beauty of presentation and obviously the beautiful Deepkia Padukone. Priyanka Chopra as first wife of Bajirao, Kashibhai did a fantastic job delivering beautifully the Marathi style and accent. Her look is beautiful and innocent in the movie as a simple Marathi wife living and ruling the palace of peshwa.

Music of the movie is done by Mr. Bhansali himself and it is excellent and outstanding with great songs like Deewani Mastani, Malhari, and Pinga featuring Priyanka Chopra & Deepika Padukon with a nostalgic touch of Dola Re in Devdas. The background score is also very beautifully composed.

Movie is rich with talented bunch of actors like Milind Soman, Tanvi Azmi, Mahesh Manjrekar, Vaibbhav Tatwawdi and many more. The lacking points I found in the movie is like it is little exhausting due to the length and little bit slow in between as somewhere the story becomes little slow. The kind of thrill and enthusiasm need to be followed on the war scenes are lacking as the director is more concentrated on the romance side, probably because of the theme that is of a historic romantic story. Well, all the lacking points are covered by the excellent cinematography and the beautiful sets. Trust me it is a treat to your eyes watching this movie on an HD screen.

It is a must watch to enjoy the fusion of art, music and acting with a heart touching story of a great warrior.

Dil Dhadakne Do – Movie Review

A high society family Drama is the one line description for the movie. Movie is a narration of story, surprisingly, by a Bull Dog named Pluto. It is all about the Hippocratic, emotionless and plastic high society Indian families. Again this is not a movie for the next person you know, it is a piece of art, a screenplay from the heart of director Zoya Akhtar. I would say it is an excellent movie in its kind of category, as I said family drama… please don’t compare it with Sooraj Barjatya’s films. This one is different level of our westernised family culture.

As expected, there are some similarities you can find in all the movies of Zoya and that is Travelling, kind of rich western music, high society culture and obviously excellent direction and screenplay. The movie will make you travel from Turkey, Istanbul, Greece and so and so fabulous places. There is always a quotient of motivation factor for life in all her movies.

This movie portrays power, rights and equality of women and most importantly the kind of Hippocratic nature of parents towards children in our Indian society. The way they pressurize children to be like what parents want and not even trying to know what actually the children want to be in their life. Whom to marry and what exactly their aims are… Marriage is not necessity, it is an option and that is not the ultimate aim of a woman in life.

Presenting clearly the relationships of the high society families that they don’t even know about each other. It is one of the truth of so called Indian Arrange Marriages that they stay together because either they don’t have other option or because of society or because of their elders or because it is too late to act for anything or finally may be they compromise with their lives.

Excellent and outstanding acting by Ranveer Singh. The performance and the kind of expression he delivers throughout the movie is awesome. It is a must watch for seeing Ranveer Singh in a new avatar. It is a bunch of talented actors together with a genius director obviously the fruit will be sweet and sober. Good to see Anil Kapoor back in such a good role. Priyanka Chopra, Anushka Sharma, Farhan Akhtar, Shefali Shah, Rahul Bose, all gave justice to their roles.

“Go and watch the movie if you like some sensible family drama”
