Dhadak

Nepotism can get film to this star kids but telnet is god gifted. Waste of time and money

I was initially in no mood of watching Dhadak since I was so in love with the original one and another reason was the direction and the production house. I knew I was digging into something which will be of on worth compared to Sairat. But the only thing which makes this mess watchable is the fresh pair: Ishaan and Jahnvi. They both've acted good in the movie especially Ishaan . He was brilliant just like his debut movie into the clouds and we can say Jahnvi was decent in serious situation although some of them were so rushed which just destroyed the essence of the scene from the original one or had no so essence. Just pale 1-D direction .And she was easy on eyes on lighter moments. Coming to the screenplay and direction both are very bad. I'm surprised that why Shashank Khaitan is even handed projects and something like the remake of an iconic movie... Why God why. The direction is not simply poor . There's nothing to talk about it and screenplay .. omg he just insulted the original one by changing some of the parts of it and making it too rushed , choppy and flat.. ughhh!!! Why ?? The supporting cast is not at all used well. The friends which played a major role in Sairat , they are reduced to just comical figures and side-kicked stalkers. Nothing else to talk about them. Summing this up , this movie is nothing like Sairat . Another Easily forgettable flick by Bollywood and a trashy remake only made watchable by the lead pair.

I've been on IMDB for almost a decade and here is my first movie review. Just watched it now because I haven't heard of it earlier. And I do not consider it to be overhyped because of a star cast. I stopped reading a bollywood movie reviews, because all that most of them do is overrate a films that don't deserve any attention at all. Now I come here and all I see is a hate. I have never seen so much hate for a movie that actually does have some sence in it. Only because an actress (who BTW has done a lovely job for a debut) is Sri Devi's doughter. Come on you all, your hate for this one is so obvious, most of you don't even explain the 1/10 rating at all! Shame on you! At least for a memory of Sri Deviji you could have some respect! Bollywood is not in a condition where u can underrate a decent cinema because of a star cast. Go watch Bharat or Zero and rate it 10/10, that is a cinema you deserve!

So here is what I can say about Dhadak. Both of the actors has done a good job. It will never be a masterpiece of some sort but it does have a charm in it. The music is touching. The supporting cast is good. It was really funny at some parts. Yes it does have a cliche spots, but they do not ruin the message it carries. Do not expect anything out of it, just enjoy it as it gets. I do not want to continue so I don't get to the spoilers. To all of you who didn't see this I recommend to ignore the haters (who are mad because they didn't get to be a Raj Kapoor grandchild))) and enjoy it. I've seen many bad bollywood films, I mean MANY! but,,, this isn't the case! Karan Johar surprised me this time. It gave a drop of hope for his upcoming works.

I'm actually stunned by the low ratings this movie has received, though it has rightly proven to be a box office success. First of all, I will state I haven't seen Sairat. Maybe Sairat is much greater than this, but that doesn't undermine this movie! Furthermore, Sairat is a regional movie, it can't appeal to all audiences alike, like the way this does. Dhadak is a fantastic movie in it's own right. You feel for the characters right throughout. The film starts like a normal bollywood romance, a boy meets a girl, they fall in love....romance pursues. But it is the second half, where reality kicks in, is where the film soars. This movie required debutants, who are raw and unpolished. Even Sairat did that. Dhadak does that too. Jahnvi Kapoor and Ishan Khatter are not pros at acting, but thier raw unpolished performances make you believe in the characters. People are silly at making a fuss about nepotism as if they would've done it better than them. We celebrate the likes of Ranbir Kapoor, Hrithik Roshan, and suddenly now we scream about nepotism! Just watch the movie, and enjoy it guys! Another plus point of the film is great music and Cinematography. Udaipur and Kolkata are beautifully captured in the two halves. Overall I definitely recommend Dhadak. Ignore the haters. These days it's simply cool to bash bollywood, and go gaga over anything hollywood. It's a trend. Everyone judges movie even before watching them. Rating- 8/10

If you are a star kid, with experienced people from Film industry to guide you, shouldn't you star in a movie which at least makes some sense(at least script wise, if not acting wise)? It's like a part of a Masaan has been taken and powdered with usual useless waste. The trailer was bad but the film is even worse. Privilege can only take you this far.
