Wenn aus Freundschaft Liebe wird

This movie will take you down the memory lane, leaving tears in your eyes. Ayushmann and Parineeti nail their roles. The emotions and moments were very real, probably one of the most realistic movies in Bollywood. Wish it came out on a different date though, so that it could've gotten the love it deserves.Overall and excellent film that made me think about the good old days that are now long gone & people who I might never meet again, of whom I only have memories left now. Watch it for the nostalgia trip, the story, the performances and Parineeti's amazing singing! It will melt and break your heart into pieces.

It is a well directed movie. It is engaging because of the narrative. The complex tale of feeling of love has been brought out beautifully. The songs sound even better with the narrative. The feeling of 'happy pain' lingers through even after the movie gets over, you shall know why. Ayushman and Parineeti, along with others have done a great job. Nothing has been overdone in this story. Even though one wishes an alternate ending, one knows it is quite a realistic take. Despite the liberty that the story writer has to kindle a ray of hope at least on the silver screen,this time the path taken does so but also says that it might just not go according to one's plans, for reasons good or bad. The best part is love as it looks to be the connecting point, sometimes becomes the very reason for the loved one's departure. One doesn't know if Bindu loved Bubla less or she just couldn't live a certain situation of it. Nothing is certain. People move on in real life too, and it is a conscious decision to do so, others stay with it. Some love stories are better preserved,than touched and lived by for over the years, they are destined to be like that. It is pristine that way. The constant feeling of certain kind of immense bonding between Bindu and Bubla resonates throughout the story and it is lovely. The bond undefined and unnamed is the best part. It is love of a certain kind, let's not go into working our ways through platonic love and all that, let's just not. This is love andit works. It is painful, it still is worth all the effort.

mere pyare bindu is story of two childhood friends...when someone reads this he/she feels there is nothing new in it.. !! we have legendary movie on this topic..kuch kuch hota hai !! which z beautiful story of two friends n their love lives !! but this story is different n the most important thing is its ending..well while watching a movie one expect a happy ending,i too expected a same n when that doesn't happen i felt a lump in throat but that's what makes this movie more close to reality!!more close to real life,in life every thing z not a fairy tale..every story don't have a happy ending ..n one must learn to cope up with loss n move on while cherishing the happy moments of one's story !! same happens in this movie !! song at the end says it all. n the looks which abhimanyu n bindu exchange says it all !! but there are some loop wholes in story..untold story of bindu !! one can understand why she left abhimanyu as she was always uncertain..impatient girl..n at that moment she felt heartbroken n lost...BUT why did she agree to marry ??what she found in that new man which was lacking in abhimanyu ??what was missing in her n abhimanyu relationship that she finds with That new man !! as towards end bindu said this z ure story mine would be diff..writer should share her story too !! i think this n there not happily ever after ending z the main reason of all bad comments..

Towards the end of the movie, Abhimanyu and Bindu keep staring at each other. Living the lives that they chose for themselves or rather, fate chose for them, they lovingly look at each other, ignoring their individual status quo.

That one moment defined the entire film for me.

'Meri Pyaari Bindu' belongs to a forgotten era where love used to happen over a cup of coffee, shared biryani and recorded audio cassettes. It's a bittersweet love story that brings a lump to the throat, yet you never lose that smile from the face. The characters are as real as the next door neighbours. The pain and the anguish that the couple face, is something that everyone can relate to. But the love can only be felt by those, who have loved and lost.

Kudos to Suprotim Sengupta for such exquisite writing.

There are lots of people in the world who wander around aimlessly, looking for meaning. Some find it quicker than others. Bindu is not one of them, despite her Babula's yearning. I really liked this film a lot, for its ambiance, great acting and memories of some amazing songs from the past. Sure, the female protagonist is not easily likable, but Parineeti does infuse her with a lot of charm. Most Indian film lovers will find her difficult to stomach because we're fed a constant diet of mindless, doormat heroines whose only mission in life is to worship at her hero's footsteps. Not Bindu. She wants and needs more, but truthfully doesn't know what that more is. So she strings everyone along with her infectious charm. By the time she discovers her more, life has moved on. As it does in the real world too. I really wish Yashraj would make more films like this instead of the loud and regressive Sultan types, that turn into blockbusters. Alas, these types of films are meant to release and flop. Do check it out if you crave something different.
