Tara vs Bilal

A woman ditched by her husband in London opts for a fake marriage to return her country ultimately falling for him. This is the plot of this simple romantic comedy, which somewhat reminded me of Kangana Ranaut's "Queen." Perhaps it's one of the most underrated movies of the recent time, which has surprisgly garnered a low rating in imdb.

Believe me, it's not a kind of larger than life movie which will set history; but it's still an enjoyable film without a second of boredom, just like the light Hollywood entertainers "My Fat Greek Wedding" or "Nurse Betty." The non star cast gives a feeling of a TV movie but is nevertheless refreshing. The greatest virtue of the film is the refreshing camerawork and sound which superbly depicts the cityscape of modern London, for which I wished I had watched in it a theatre.

Rating: 2 stars out of 4.

This movie is cute and makes you smile and laugh at many instances! Acting from the main and supporting cast is brilliant. I am glad I ignored the average ratings and negative reviews and watched this rom-com. Some of the scenes halt the flow in the movie but like a river over rocks, this movie manages to reach the ocean eventually!

This movie is no A-list bumper (like the one in my title) but goes on to prove yet again that star tags will never triumph over good acting and storyline.

Harshvardhan Rane after Sanam Teri Kasam, manages to charm the audience yet again. Sonia Rathee's 'Tara' is a scene-stealer.

What a brilliant story line, excellent characters, wonderful acting and it kept me n my daughter hooked!!!! Dont mind watchin again. These are the kind of movies KJ needs to release. We need to encourage such good actors too and support them.

The storyline, acting, everything is perfect. Please please encourage your friends to watch. This is how we can provide support for upcoming actors and actresses. This should have been released in theatres.

Please support and keep spreading the word. Hands down to the starcast, directors and each one of them who have been part of this movie.

Extremely enjoyed watching.

I'm currently watching this on Netflix and while the base concept it great and the lead actress- the actor playing Bilal is just terrible! I'm not sure what's worse- his over the top hair, the inconsistent British accent that obviously switches to huge Indian accent or the general over acting?

Having said that I'm still enjoying this and hope to see more from this director & writing team and the lead actress cast- she has such a Nargis Fakri vibe but with better acting!! Ha!

On a separate note the look/ feel of this movie with use of natural lighting and soft colour colour grading is a welcome change to the sea of psychedelic Karan Johar colours occupying Bollywood right now.

I hardly write any reviews but truly a feel good movie and great acting all around. Had such a great day after watching this movie and promoting the film to friends and family.

Watch this movie for what it is. People spend time and effort making a movie. And then there are who critise in few mins without thinking it's not like they can make a better one.

It's not a race for the oscars here. Please sit down and actually watch the movie and enjoy the little things in life.

The direction and acting are spot on. Great storyline, even though you'd think it's been done before but for me it hit hard and I thoroughly enjoyed this movie.
