Pyaar Ke Side Effects

Likewise I am not Hindi movie lover, I am not so use to watching Hindi movie.. So when the explosive casting come to my notice, I am taking about Rahul Bose and Mallika Sherawat, Now both are accomplished actors and there on screen chemistry is incredible.

Each and every man or woman who has fallen in love, should watch this movie.

Girls are complex creature and how to get them , tackle them and in the end to get them U will learn all. Don't miss it and do watch it.

Rahul as usual in giving an explosive performance, You will love him or hate them, Nothing in between and super sexy Mallika acting just fine.

Go watch it and yes Side effects are for real.. 8/10 Go Go Go.. Miss it and forget a good relationship..

Now this was a nice movie, which was certainly out of the standard run of mill bollywood movies. Best thing about this one was that no BIG star was in it, it was well-directed and contemporary. Rahul Bose acted like a man running for love,life,family and what not. Mallika (I don't know why people don't respect her in the way she deserves) was just too good (she was typical Delhi-Girl), Rest of the cast was up to the mark which makes it a worth watching film.

After all we, in India, have this notion of being from North or south, these are silly little things but we do have daily instances of these coming into our life and those silly little things are portrayed very beautifully in this movie. As for romance, both the actors have done a great job in depicting what actually happens in real life when one is caught between the set prejudices of family and the love of their life. Some parallels from "Meet the Parents" can be drawn but very very few indeed.

Its a refresher, go watch it today.

I was quite hesitant about watching this flick as I didn't like Sherawat's Murder. After some recommendations, I watched it last night and thought it was quite enjoyable and likable. Saket Chaudhary tells the story in a light manner. My only complaint is that Saket takes a lot of the humour from American sitcoms and movies. 'Pyaar ke Side Effects' tells us the story of Sid (from his point of view), his relationship with his girlfriend and friends and his fear of commitment. Sounds familiar? Anyway many of the 'issues' presented are things we guys have dealt with and girls put up with. The story is quite relatable and told in a mature manner.

Rahul Bose plays the central character and totally owns the movie. He is so real that any guy can easily identify with him. Supporting cast that includes Ranvir Shorey and Sophia Chaudhary are equally brilliant. Mallika Sherawat is alright. The songs are alright but quite forgettable.

If you're looking for something with light humour and something to watch with your girlfriend/boyfriend, this is a god enough choice. Now I can smile at you mischievously :).

For starters I had mixed feelings about this movie, after I saw the teasers I knew I had to see this movie but I was really apprehensive about the Yuppie Cast that this movie had, besides Mallika Sherawat (who despite what they say is a fine actress),the rest of the crew were mainly people who were well respected maybe in the snooty critique circles who use words like delightfully decadent and deceptively derivative and such crap to describe art.

I WAS DOUBTFUL THAT THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO PULL OF A COMMERCIAL VENTURE LIKE THIS.

But boy was I surprised.......

In 5 mins I knew this movie was definitely going to be worth the time and the money (when you pay 80 rs in regal there is hardly any doubt in that hehe).

I soon realised that this movie has obviously been inspired and adapted into the Indian concept, but the works from which it has been inspired such as COUPLING are such brilliant pieces of work on the subject of gender differences and attraction that even the poorest copy of it cannot be bad, ALthough the SIDE EFFECTS OF THE SAME ARE VERY MUCH THERE.

I loved the fact, that we are shown a mature relationship between adults who we can can identify with and not the Malhotras and Viranis who only exist in the imaginations of the writers, and in any case are impossible to identify with.

Its great so see a DJ earning a modest income and traveling by cab and not the builders and the crores being spoken like it was loose change.

Yes despite the commercial format of this movie Rahul Bose was in the end Rahul Bose but I'm not complaining he was completely in his element in fact I cannot emphasise how perfect the casting and acting of this movie is. Every character down to Suchitra Pillai as the abrasive over protective friend was perfect.

The acting from the entire cast was right up there and once again Rahul Bose and Mallika Sherwat prove what fine actors they are.

And the jokes..... they were absolutely hilarious, when the poor guy is trying to watch the cricket match is asked to give attention to his girlfriend I couldn't stop laughing when I remember how I and my friends (girls) react in this situation.

And this was just the beginning, the Delhi marriages, the fact that women have the ability to win any argument by the power of their tears, the height difference between the boy and the girl, the fact that most supposedly casual relations end up being anything but casual, the abrasive judge-mental dad, the annoying friends.................................and many more.

This movie is crammed with great scenes, jokes and one liners.

AND FOR THE FIRST TIME THAT I CAN REMEMBER A PRODUCT IS PLACED ON THE SCREEN THE WAY IT SHOULD BE........

I mean it didn't take a dumb-ass to notice that there were in fact cans of red-bull scattered all over the bar or the brand on the pizza box that was been discarded etc.

Compare that to such disasters such as Virudh (the reigning king ) Krissh etc.

For a slightly lower budget film the movie was technically very good.

The soundtrack of this movie is brilliant and is definitely going to rock the nightclubs for some time to come.

THIS MOVIE UNFOLDS FROM THE GUYS POINT OF VIEW AND THAT MAKES IS SUPER FOR GUYS AND WONDERFUL IF YOU HAVE GIRLS WITH YOU.

Still you wonder after all the raving how come I gave this movie an 8.

OK so 1 mark is lost entirely due to the fact that this movie is in fact inspired and despite being very well adapted the residues of the influence can well be seen, and there are a numerous scenes that show the influence of a Foreign HAND in this otherwise completely urban Indian movie.

The other mark is lost for the some really over the top and annoying scenes towards the end of the movie such the stripping scene and the overly long and drawn out mourning and the stupid way in which casual sex was handled, I mean on one end you show a guy as being a complete lose with women and on the other hand you show him having casual sex with a sexy door to door salesman, and whats with the morally challenged item girl having a conscience and the otherwise morally sound guy starting to believe in casual sex.

The songs were somewhat overused in the film I mean the soundtrack was already a hit, there was no reason to go back to the outdated concept of showing entire songs in the movie when they don't serve the purpose of furthering the story or providing comic relief.

This movie may not win any awards but it will be remembered for bringing the modern urban Indian ordinary guy out from the festival circuit into mainstream cinema.

Yes we may still be a decade away from having our own versions of the gender difference but this is as good as it gets.

In all a great package which save for a few glaring flaws is absolutely delightful and a must watch for anyone and everyone.

-s some really annoying and over the top scenes mainly towards the end, the obvious and unappetising foreign influences in the scenes and the humour, some obvious flaws.

+/-s Rahul Bose and a Yuppie unknown cast, influenced from masterpieces.

+s path breaking cinema, huge number of hilarious jokes, very easy to identify with especially for urban Indians, technically up there, great soundtrack.

PS I went for this movie with a girl and I recommend you do the same.

This may become the first movie with any English words in its title to enjoy even moderate success.

Pyaar Ke Side Effects is a fun rom-com. It is modern, lighthearted and comic in its story and presentation, and that makes it thoroughly entertaining. The film is not as much about love as it is about relationships between young and modern people in an urban "new" India. This depiction is well done. Frankly speaking, had this film been made in Hollywood, it probably would not have been taken very seriously since that's what audiences there are most used to seeing, but as an Indian movie, it was fun stuff worth watching with friends as it's different from anything one uses to associate with Hindi movies. The film stars Rahul Bose in a fine performance as a troubled thirty year-old man who does not really know how to deal with his relationship with a young woman played by Mallika Sherawat who insists on marriage while he is not ready yet to take such responsibility. Sherawat is quite natural in a role that is nothing great but quite likable. Other cast members do well. One of the aspects I did not like in this movie was the narration. I did not like the way Bose's character often started narrating his thoughts and the proceedings in the middle of a scene and the other characters were made kind of deaf, unaware of his voiced dialogues. A simple narration of voice over would be more effective. Anyway, if one's speaking of dialogues, then I must say they were quite authentic in this one. To sum it up, Pyaar Ke Side Effects is an enjoyable and highly watchable movie best watched by young couples and friends.
