Tadka

Just finished watching this gem, it was a very beautiful and refreshing story. All actors have done a great job to deliver strong performance on a well written and engaging story. Especially Nana and Shriya have to be commended for their effort to bring their respective characters alive. Nana's screen presence was absolutely amazing, the range of emotions and depth he has shown in this role has been missing from lot of modern romantic comedies. I hope this movie becomes more popular and more people watch it to keep these style of cinema alive.

Please make more movies like this, as it stimulates positive emotions and makes people fall in love with love again.

Thank you for reading my review...

Heart Warming Moments and Funny Scenes,

Movie is a Remake of Malayalam Movie - Salt and Pepper which was a nice movie.

Direction is good enough to make you engaged but Some Characters like Tapsee Pannu and Ali Fazal are just fill in the blanks.

Ya there was parallel story of them and related to the characters but that part is slow.

I was about to forward a film for minutes and continue watching than Nana Patekar come on screen.

Watching him after a long time on screen was lovely.

Loved his way of dialogue delivery and character as always.

Worth watch (Time pass)

• itsbymayank Review of Tadka.

The movie script is a copy piece of sirf tum movie. The love by voice is an experiment. Overall movie is good. But the end need some more scenes like confession by duplicate couple to the main couple. The songs not properly fit with the script. Some character are just burdening the movie. Too much emotional scene by Mandra making no sense. The dialogues of Tukaram/Nana Patekar is as previously seen in all his movies, so no improvement in acting is seen. The movie is entertaining after all and put the viewer in suspense till last whether the couple can meet each other. If script was well developed by more modification in story then it will be big hit this year in cinema halls.

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.

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.
