Badrinath Ki Dulhania

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.

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.

How a boy & a girl recognizes by society when they born, how their life builds and at the life stage of wedding how things being done and how it affects the lives of them. These things well explained in this movie.

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.

#BadrinathKiDulhania : After seeing the trailer, I felt that it's gonna be another Humpty Sharma type movie. But, Varun Dhawan's success ration made me to watch this movie on first day. So, here is its review!

Director Shashank Khaitan and Dharma Production have tried to make a simple-family oriented- love story with colorful costumes, sets and songs. And they have done it really well. Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt are fabulous together. We have seen their superb chemistry in Humpty Sharma. But, I'm amazed with the chemistry between Varun Dhawan and Sahil Vaid (his friend). Both have just rock the screen!

Story is moving on a fast paced track in first half. Interval will make you sad, as in that time the film would not be running. And you all will wait for the second half to start. As the first half is supremely fast, colorful, humorous, and full on with Varun Dhawan's Dhamaal. Second half is slightly slow paced, somehow it looses the grip. Though there are certain songs and 3 awesome funny moments, including Varun Dhawan with the baddies of Singapore. That's a LOL moment. Then the paced gears up after Tamma Tamma song. The conversation between Alia n Varun after that song is worth to watch. Writers have shown their maturity in that scene. Kudos. And again in the end, writers and actors like Varun and Alia nail it. Film ends with a happy-go-lucky song- The title track.

Alia Bhatt is as usual fantastic. I like Varun Dhawan since SOTY so I'll not say anything about him. He is as best as he can. Sahil Vaid is the JAAN of this movie. Without him, I don't think this film would become like this. For him only, I will watch this movie again and again whenever I'll get the chance. Both the fathers have done superb job with their oxygen cylinders especially Swanand Kirkire. Shweta Basu's comeback is appreciable. Aparshakti Khurrana and his song JMD will remain with you forever. Overall, a decent cast.

Songs are better than the previous part. There was only Samjhavan song, but it was a huge hit. A glimpse of that song is also here in the background in climax. Humsafar, Tamma Tamma, Title Track, Roke Na Ruke Naina- all songs are superb, let me download these amazing songs.

Direction and camera-work are fine. I have just one problem in second half where it starts to loose the grip. Otherwise, there are so many moments of fun and joy that the dull moments will hide behind them. Congratulations to the entire team for making one more film on Dulhaniya franchise, with a great love, passion and a social message, too. I like this movie more than the previous.

On the whole, Varun Dhawan will keep his success ratio alive with this movie. Go and watch this family film. A holy-entertainment on Holi days!
