Badrinath Ki Dulhania

It was definitely a well balanced film which consists the right amount of romance, comedy, human emotion, drama and reality of the society.

Unlike other films it does not sugarcoat the fact of existing dowry system of the society and frankly showed the general emotion about it in the mind contemporary youth.

The story was well crafted and had a balanced combination of everything. The first half was full of fun and entertainment, and the second half was allocated for the complex emotional part; which made the film all the more enjoyable.

The casting was also superb. It is always a breath of fresh air to watch age appropriate actor and actress perform together, rather than the odd pair of old actor and young actress. So it was great to see Alia Bhatt and Varun Dhawan together again. They both matured a lot in acing and their on screen chemistry was phenomenal. They both looked fabulous throughout the film. And the tracks of the films are quite good also.

I really enjoyed the film. You should also watch the film and it is safe to say that you will also like the film and the characters of the film.

RECOMMENDED.

Badrinath Ki Dulhania is the first Bollywood movie I went and watched at the Cinema's! It was definitely worth it.

A great movie, made me laugh, cry and think. I was looking forward to seeing this movie since watching Humpty Ki Sharma late last year. While Humpty is great in it's own way, Badrinath is more mature so expectations were definitely met.

The chemistry between Alia-Varun remain in tact and one of the core reasons for my purchasing the tickets. The script is fairly well written, the leads delivered the lines perfectly, the scenes, the long and close-up shots were done extremely well & at the right time. I especially liked the depth of anger and hurt displayed on Badrinath's face (you'll see it, red eyes and all), Varun is exceptional and camera works truly captured this using close-ups. Vaidehi's character, I didn't understand until towards the end, specifically, on the rooftop of a building in Singapore, Alia's delivery of one line, helped me to understand her character ... in turn, Badri's reaction is equally great. I was bouncing between who is right

The flaws that I saw in the movie, I think the timing of my favorite song 'humsafar' was wrong, it played too early ...for me, anyway, and Badri's father delivered very few lines and yet he had the most power over his family ..I think the actor that played Badri's father didn't do the best job - sorry! But very true!

I would definitely recommend this movie!! India is gorgeous, this movie shows that, also, loved that I heard 'samajhawan' music in one scene... best chemistry, Varun has a killer smile and Alia looked gorgeous- I think this is the most girly I have seen her! Can't wait for their next movie together.

Here's to the Vaidehis and Badrinaths of the world :)

Let me give you all the reasons why this movie is what our country needs:

1) It targets how parents manipulate children with their health when it works to their convenience. 2) It shows how some children have to sacrifice their love to please their blind parents. 3) It rejects dowry. 4) It shows how we must oppose superstitions, and stand up for what is right. 5) It shows how talented women are, and how far women can go when given a chance. 6) It shows that a 10th pass man can change, and reason, so why can well educated people? 7) It shows that authoritative male figures must be questioned. Because age cannot give anyone a license to do wrong. 8) Varun proudly says Jhansi was not named after the great things done by a Raja, but by a Rani -Rani Jhansi. 9) Sure there are scenes of stalking, but he accepts that he was wrong. And the bigger message is of CHANGE! 10) This movie is one of the best movies of 2017. Anyone capable of reasoning and thinking, will look beyond and see the larger message.

We are all intelligent beings. Sometimes we make mistakes. But what important is our ability to CHANGE.

Anyone who uses words like misogynist, anti feminist, regressive to describe this movie, needs the latest dictionary, because clearly the definitions they believe are skewed.

Shashank Khaitan reprized Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge concept second time with some message for audience. Women empowerment, Dowry and Self confidence were good ingredient of this script. Alia Bhatt and Varun Dhawan on screen chemistry set fire in the romantic comedy. Some great performance from Makdee fame Shweta Basu Prasad , Sahil Vaid and Yash Sinha. Music was good especially "Tamma Tamma Again" brilliantly recreated.Dialogues were full of punches and full of laughter. However script need some improvement in the second half. Repeated use of Oxygen gas cylinder was bad choice. Roadies and IGT style selection for groom brought smile on the face of audience.

Recently watched Badrinath ki Dulhania. The name of the movie for one! Why did it have to again be someone's " dulhania?" More power to women we say, then why was it not "Vaidehi ka dulha" in the first place, especially since the movie portrays Vaidehi( Alia Bhatt) as a fiery go-getter who is shown to be an educated, independent, self- made girl unlike Badri (played by Varun Dhawan) who is the exact opposite. And as goes the story, Vaidehi is to be the bread-winner of of this Kota-Jhansi bred couple in the end. Why then was it so necessary to add the "dulhania" tag to women power? The movie is a rundown of the a typical Hindi movie masala encompassing the all, love, song and dance routine, amid prevailing social evils of dowry defied by the fiery spirit of an independent girl, who is the epitome of " never say never"! The story , which otherwise seemed to be getting brownie points for 'more power to women', concluded too obviously for comfort! Just as one begins to think, Dharma Productions is about to make a dent in the traditions and conventions here and give a new food for thought about reconsidering the gender & matrimony aspect, the movie concludes on a "it always ends this way" note. So much for women power!! All said and done the on-screen chemistry Of Alia and Varun is terrific. Alia, as usual is flawless both in the eye appeal and performance and has given her best . Varun gets into his character and you see that intensity in acting, which he puts his heart into, in every role he's portrayed so far. A little humour here and there helps you to stay through an otherwise run-of-the-mill movie.
