Tadka

What happens when a man who never knows what's love meets a lady unexpectedly and How's their spicy conversation turns out to be soft and sweet, That's Tadka's 1st half. But after Interval the story turns into an interesting way which changes both of our lead roles life style.

So can they meet their right person?

That's all about the modern day zaykedaar movie Tadka... Nana Patekar has done a tremendous job in this movie. His voice, his acting, his funny lines and also his romantic poetries, In all way seeing Nana Patekar in a new look after so many years is a treat for cinefiles. He has delivered a beautiful dialogue during 1:30:00 to 1:33:00.. That's a beautiful moment.

Shriya Saran has proved that she is better actress as always. Looking beautiful and has shown a matured behaviour in his character.

Beautifully shot in Goa, Prakash Raj has done such a wonderful experiment with his directorial debut

A must watch..👍👍👍

If you are into old school romance, poetry and stuff then you should definitely watch this movie. Nana Patekar and Shriya Saran fits so perfectly in their roles. Nana's dialogue delivery and acting feels like a treat after a long time.

The plot develops a small comparison between new age temporary romance vs poetic or hopeless romantics who believe that they are born for that one person.

I don't usually do reviews but this one just took me back to the time when I first watched Irfan khan's "Qarib Qarib Single". These movies have a different vibe to them and being a Romance and Poetry lover I love these movies.

If you reek of Romance then this movie is just for you.

The storyline appeared to have promise as a story of two people destined to be together because of their love (obsession for one of them) with food but a number of misunderstandings get between them.

I'm a big fan of Nana Patekar and Taapsee Pannu which is why I watched this movie. Unfortunately, Nana did not occupy the Tukaram character as much as the character became Nana with all his mannerisms. Shriya Saran turned in a good performace. Taapsee had a smaller role than Shriya Saran and played almost a caricature; far from her role in Thappad. And Ali Fazal was barely used.

Impressed with Iravati Harshe who I don't remember seeing on screen before.

And the background music when people were talking was very loud, jarring and intrusive when it should have been subtle.

Tadka is a romance film directed by prakash raj which is an official hindi remake of the malayalam film "salt n pepper".

Nana patekar is in a fine form. At age 65, he is pushing romantic lines and describing beauty about a purer love and it does not cone as gimmicky. His expressions and especially dialogue delivery is on point. Truely a stalwart of indian cinema. Shriya saran too shines with her acting. At many places, her dubbing was not good. Ali fazal and especially taapsee pannu are wasted here. Taapsee, in her initial years was really an amateur actor. Other characters don't have much space to be fleshed out.

The music is decent. The background score is strictly average. It does not help that the bgm continuously keeps playing at all times. The cinematography is pretty good. The song between ali and taapsee is really oddly placed.

The film beautifully incorporates the beauty of food and delicacy but somehow it throws away that advantage and becomes a typical romantic film. Also the dubbing of taapsee was disheartening and tone-deaf.

As much as i like it, i hope it coukd hv been much more better. I rate it 7 out of 10.

For all those who want to watch a love story(on the lines of lunch box) then this movie is for You. I wish Taapse and Ali fazal had dubbed for this movie. Taapsee's presence with tadka of dubbed voice is the most irritating part of this movie. Nana Patekar is in Good form and the supporting cast(except Taapsee) did a fantabulous job. I even loved the background music of this movie. Very effective. This role was tailor made for Irfan Khan but sadly he is no more with us. But Nana Patekar did do justice after all he is versatile too. If ME2 thing was not going on with Nana. I think more people would have watched and appreciated.
