Darlings

Just finished watching Darlings with my mom and we both loved the film.

Jasmeet K Reen is a marvelous director. She has the ability to make her movies in such a manner that it impacts the mind of the audience and makes them think. The humor was quite nicely added with the important issue of the movie. It's a very important movie for Indian society where domestic violence is still prevalent in many households. The dialogues and the screenplay in the movie are of top class.

The best thing in the film is undoubtedly the phenomenal acting from everyone, especially Alia Bhatt and Shefali Shah. Alia keeps on getting better with each and every project of hers and Shefali Shah is a terrific actor.

This movie will make you laugh, cry and angry sometimes and overall it will keep you entertained throughout. Strongly recommended.

It's almost funny how relatable Darlings feels to me because I have been witness to domestic abuse. It's so ordinary and routine everywhere that the quality makes it funny when you see the same proceeding unleash on the silver screen with high-profile actors looking ready to get behind the camera portraying such roles. As for the film as a product, I believe the whole cast and crew do a wonderful job at showing the extremes of what domestic abuse can do to people on both sides of the spectrum. The matured take on the morality? It's like the chef's kiss on this darling film. Watch it on a laid-back evening.

Movie starts with a shot where far away the poster of movie "badlaa" is shown. Alia bhatt buys the tickets. Is this some kind of poetic stuff movie wants to portray?must be! Because the movie is twisted revenge saga.the perfect cast with stellar performance makes it more spicy.domestic violence was previously discussed in "Thappad"where the story took the legal court room drama route.this movie however tries to fall under dark comedy genre. A tricky stuff to pull off! Except few glitches it pulls off. Alia and shefali look great as mother daughter."jalsaa" and now "darlings"shefali has certainly crafted the art of being a below average,illiterate woman. Alia shines like a gold. An intriguing movie.

Kudos to the team for choosing such topic. Vijay Verma was excellent. It was nice to see a built up towards Badru's anger to to the point she wanted to teach Hamza a lesson totally believable not expected from Bollywood but nice surprise. Now to the story it was promoted as dark humor but apart from 1 or 2 scenes i didnt find any comdedy. It was pretty straight forward story. There was nothing extra ordinary to lift the movie. It felt like a TV movie nothing more. Comedy can be best said to be an extinct art in Bollywood. Zulfi and Badru's mom character could have been explored more. Tons of dark comedy could hve been added. Anyways good step forward but needs more polish.

Good Flick, Credit has to go to the entire team and the director, Alia Bhatt is definitely some actor and can give many Holywood actors a run for their money but I think Shefali shah has nailed it. I enjoyed watching more of her than Alia, The movie is well executed dark comedy but boring at times when the two main protagonists come together but the presence of Shefali shah kept the movie go along nicely.
