Atrangi Re

Watched today. I must say Sara has grown as an actress.

Dhanush was fabulous as always.

A new and good concept, loved the movie and its characters.so i suggest you must watch this movie.very good movie to watch go for it.

This movie brings a rare story with a good cast and fine acting. In simple words, Atrangi Re is way more than being your routine love triangle. A very welcoming change for Bollywood to learn how you can tell an age-old story in so many different ways.

A movie trying to tackle psychological issues. We have seen better, more scientific depictions. But you can watch the movie for Dhanush. His acting was so good -- in many scenes he expresses mixed feelings so effectively. Even light scenes in which he cries while laughing due to laughing gas; to the scene in which he expresses love to Sara in Tamil!

Sara can't act. Anand L Rai should have looked for a more expressive heroine, especially in a heroine oriented movie like this. Akshay has done his part well, but anyway nothing much for him to do.

2+ hours of entertainment if you are not expecting anything in depth.

The 1st half of the movie is exactly what its trailer promised to be and that's why I didn't like it much. I didn't like Sara's acting, unrealistic writing of the characters specially of Dhanush. Only I liked the music which is the biggest plus point of this film. Then suddenly, a twist came and I started to like the film. But, it didn't last long as the storyline was being dragged.

The things I loved the most are - superb acting of Dhanush, Ashish Verma, the core concept of the film & the songs. In my opinion, Sara was given a very strong character but she couldn't do full justice to it. They should've taken a better actor.

Finally, Atrangi Re is really a good movie but it could've been much better.

Available on Disney+ Hotstar.

At face value, 'Atrangi Re' does provide adequate entertainment value and the film holistically has its heart set in the right place. Unlike many other mainstream titles, The humour isn't a complete disappointment here. The emotions do run high and the love story within does work as desired and it's probably the major selling point as well.

Dhanush and Akshay need no introduction, and both of them did exactly what their roles demanded. Therefore, the whole attention shifted elsewhere. Everyone's eyes were on Sarah! And all I can say is that she proved her mettle! Not only did she manage to put herself into the shoes of such a complicated character; she did all that without getting too predictable or clichéd in the process.

On one hand, I do appreciate the makers for trying their hands at something different; on the other hand, I can't help but point out the fact that this particular execution is nowhere near the level of maturity or accountability such delicate topics normally require.

I know and I understand that this film was never meant to spread awareness nor did it have any sort of intention to give out lectures on the said subject. But my point is when you are indulging actively in a conversation about Mental Disorders; you cannot possibly deny your duties & commitments.

In a society like ours, where Mental Issues are still treated as a laughing stock; As filmmakers, don't you guys bear the responsibility of conveying the right kind of message out in the open? But hey what did you do instead? You made a mockery out of it! There were multiple instances, especially in-between character interactions; where I find the ulterior motive to be alarmingly disconcerting and borderline problematic.
