Khoobsurat - Doktor der Liebe

Loosely based on the 1980 film by the same name, 'Khoobsurat' is a decent, breezy watch, that has something for the romantics. Its not flawless, by any means, but it benefits from good direction & impressive performances.

'Khoobsurat' Synopsis: A hopelessly romantic physiotherapist meets a handsome young Rajput prince who is the complete opposite of her and engaged to someone else.

'Khoobsurat' is a light-hearted, simple romantic-comedy, about simple characters, under circumstances of their own. Indira Bisht's Screenplay is nicely written, although the pace in the second-hour begins to lose. Also, 'Khoobsurat' overstays its welcome by at least 20-minutes. Some trimming, was strongly needed.

Shashanka Ghosh's Direction is good. Cinematography is well-crafted. Editing is a weak link. The film is loose, at times. Music by Sneha Khanwalkar & Badshah is fantastic.

Performance-Wise: Sonam Kapoor looks gorgeous & fits the role well, however, she's mechanical in scenes that demand her to flaunt her comedic side. Fawad Khan is wonderful, enacting his part with dignity & control. Ratna Pathak Shah is terrific, but its Kirron Kher who steals the show, with an electric performance. Aamir Raza Hussain deserves a special mention. He's first-rate!

On the whole, 'Khoobsurat' has its own charm, indeed!

This is a fun, innocent, lighthearted movie, with a soft, kind soul at it's heart. Don't come across this kind much at all these days. It's a very relevant theme. Dialogues, production design are superb. Sonam Kapoor does full justice to the role. No overacting here. Her character grows with the movie and you realize the kindness of her character as the movie flows. Fawad Khan is adorable and did a great job. Special mention to Kirron Kher! Impeccable comic timing! Ratna Pathak Shah is superb! The entire supporting cast did a great job. Songs are nice. Can watch this time and again! :)

Sonam/Fawad's Khoobsurat will stole your heart because of its good acting, fresh and quirky dialogues, and a nice gorgeous set...

Mili Chakroborty, enters into a royal family, controlled by a strict disciplined Maharani(Ratna Pathak Shah), to treat her grieving husband in wheel chair. Though According to her the young Prince is Khadus(Fawad Khan), but how she gelled up and become a part of this over disciplined Family, is Khoobsorat all about...

Good Points: 1) Acting- Sonam as Mili is a treat to watch, Simple, bubbly, carefree Sonam, maturing as an actor and was quite convincing. She looked gorgeous in every costume, Her Portrayal was so simple, that you will fall in love with Mili...And the way she delivered Dialouges were utterly Cute.. Kiron Kher as Manju is a typical punjabi lady who never thinks twice before using any damn word..Her comic timing was perfect and she was the life of the entire movie. She carried the role so perfectly as if it was made for her, wonderful actress she is. her conversation with Mili will tickle you again and again. A Desirable mom... Ratna Pathak Shah, as usual a perfect choice for a Sophisticated, well dressed , discipline freak, Strict Maharani...Her expression, her way of Saying 'ANTIQUE' is so perfect, She was a perfect contrast for Kiron Kher.. Fawad Khan, Handsome, perfect expression, Subtle acting are some words that will describe the actor from over the border..He was perfect as a prince...who tried to control her lust/love for Mili throughout the movie in a Strict and Sophisticated way...ha ha ..funny...his mute conversations with Mili were one of those many funny parts... Aditi Hayderi, Pretty as hell..

2)Dialouges: The charm of the entire movie were dialouges...they were perfect, full of one liner punches, ticklish and fresh...they will keep you involved throughout the movie

3) Background: one of the best Set I have seen in recent time movies...it was remarkable and mesmerizing..

4) Music: each and every Score are good and perfect for every situation...engine ki seeti and maa ka phone are funny and fab..

5) Costumes: Oh my my... Pretty Pretty Pretty..

Bad Points: The story was predictable and was loosing its pace in the second half for around 15-16 minutes...

U can seriously Go and watch it and will come out laughing....

I watched this movie not just because my wife wanted to watch it, but also because it is a Disney Production. This fairytale has enough punches and turns to keep you interested and aligned with the story. It lives up to the expectations of audience by including a number of activities and events that are known to all of us. For instance, some of the hobbies and postures used by the protagonists are funny yet common.

I liked the set up and all the actors played their characters well. The USP of this movie for me is the fact that it connects with you in no time and then maintains it till the end.

Khoobsurat- Actually a beautiful movie. no doubt the starting was a bit slow but the audience never gave up like Milli didn't and continue the treatment for Mr. Shekar. Sonam Kapoor's Every action had very natural effects in it. The way she sat, ate, laughed, walked, jumped hence everything she did was her true side. But, on the other hand the Royal Family had strict rules and for them Sonam was no less than a retarded Doctor. Fawad Khan like always has acted very well and his face expression were way too amazing. It is a MUST watch movie as The songs are worth listening to.

The cinematography rocked and undoubtedly everything was Magnificent.
