Haseen Dillruba - Herzergreifend schön

This is one insane Bollywood thriller - you'll might love the movie after seeing the unexpected finale. The film is enjoyable to see for its clever use of 135 minutes to blend suspense with sarcastic humour.

There are actually three winners in the movie. Apart from Taapsee Pannu's powerful performance and Vikrant Massey's brilliance, there is Kanika Dhillon's writing which is very brilliant.

Yes, there are flaws in the script and the story but despite its flaws, "Haseen Dillruba" is a pleasant watch.

First half loosely based on French author Gustave Flaubert's Madam Bovary. Same story first half the female protagonist wants a lot of mental stimulation from her marriage but when she doesn't get it goes for extra marital affairs and is ready to leave her husband behind for her lover but the lover leaves her behind and runs away. From the novel we get in psychology the term Bovarysme. It's an interesting mix of few stories.

A wonderful and surprising police drama, despite machismo being intrinsic in Indian culture, here we have an almost independent woman, however the cuisine still enslaves many women, but the apex is the mystery, the suspense surrounding her husband's death, murder or not , very engaging, detailed reported, through reports and flashbacks, fantastic, intelligent, engaging...

The movie was above average. Way better than crappy all-star movies. It's definitely a one-time watch. The acting was good. The music was ok. I don't get the bad reviews. Critics are extremely biased with this one.

Story was quite simple and a perfect viewer can know the murderer with the movie progresses. Positive thing was they didn't try a lot which would have turned the movie into a mess. Amazing dialogue content. And last but not least exceptional acting by all three actors.
