Kill Dil

#KillDil : The star casts of this film is saying that this is a musical blockbuster. But, I am saying that it is a musical, not a blockbuster. Plus Point: Kkkk Kill Kill Dddd Dil Dil, Actually the entire music album, Ranveer Singh's madness, Funny dialogues of first half, Song's picturization, Some one liners & the best part of Kill/Dil is Govinda. Ali Zafar has been wasted. & For Parineeti, what can I say? She is loosing her fans with Daawat-E-Ishq & now Kill/Dil. Ranveer is capable to engage you and also capable to entertain you. Govinda as Bhaiyaaji is outstanding. He is back. On his one liners, public was shouting and cheering. The movie may be a hammer without him. Lyrics by Gulzar & Music by Shankar-Ehesan-Loy are the things which made the director-producers to make a film called Kill Dil. Seriously, there is no story line. Whatever it is, is lyrical. Every 10-15 minutes, one song came in front of you. Every song is watchable on the big screen. But, you are not want only songs, they have to show story in which they can put songs. But, here, the story is in somewhere, the empty spaces between any two songs. I found 2 mistakes of director. One is in the first scene, the guards of Netaji went where after the shootout. Second one is, in one scene, the mike's shadow is clearly visible on Ranveer's head. So it's called minus points. Overall, this movie offers you new Govinda and some new one liners or you can say good comedy. Other than these, nothing new can be seen by anyone. Yeah, it is called a one time watch.

'Kill Dil' Directed by Shaad Ali has a brisk first-hour, but a bland & boring second, which acts as a deterrent. The Film is partly entertaining, partly boring!

'Kill Dil' Synopsis: Two killers – Tutu (Ali Zafar) and Dev (Ranveer Singh) were nurtured by Bhaiyaji (Govinda) who trained them to be sharp shooters. Things take an unexpected turn when Dev falls in love with Disha (Parineeti Chopra) and decides to leave his violent life.

'Kill Dil' begins on an awesome note & the bromance between its protagonists works big time. Its the romantic-track, that gets tedious in the latter hour. Even the climax looked hurried & unconvincing. Also, the excessive usage of songs in its first & second-hour, only drag the film pointlessly.

The Screenplay isn't without merit, but it loses steam in the second-hour. A stronger second-hour was most certainly needed! The dialogue, however, are clever. Shaad Ali's Direction is average. Cinematography & Editing are superbly done. Music by Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy is melodious, but the songs pop-up unnecessarily in the narrative.

Performance-Wise: Ranveer Singh is in terrific form, yet again! The talented actor enacts the love-struck young-blood with enviable energy & conviction. Ali Zafar supports Ranveer, wonderfully. Parineeti Chopra looks gorgeous & delivers a fair performance. Govinda springs a pleasant surprise. He nails it as the villain. Among Others, Alok Nath is restrained in a cameo.

On the whole, 'Kill Dil' is strictly a watchable fare, that's bogged down by a half-baked Screenplay.

From the first look of its promo, Kill Dill brought an implicit association with the Quentin Tarantino brand of pulp fiction - heroes in cool leather jackets and dark sunglasses, slow-mo gunshots against a pale-yellow textured template, sly humor, whistle score akin to cowboys genre and an undercurrent of gleeful violence that runs through the narrative.And with an interesting line-up of actors , it appeared as if director Shaadi Ali was in a serious attempt to resurrect his image after the disastrous Jhoom Barabar Jhoom.Despite a promising start and a premise ripe with potential,Kill Dill fizzes out like a con cracker.

Set in the hinterland, somewhere in the Delhi-NCR suburbs, it tells the story of two friends, Dev(Ranveer Singh) and Tutu(Ali Zafar) who are raised by the grizzly don, Bhaiyaji(Govinda)when he finds these two orphans lying in a garbage dump , to become contract shooters.Without much of insights, we are given glimpses of the camaraderie between these two boys and their fetish for bullets and beer.Shaad establishes the fact they have a tough exterior but soft at heart.All is well till Dev falls in love with the vivacious Disha(Parineeti Chopra) who rehabilitates criminals for a career but is oblivious of Dev's tinted past.Conscience hits Dev and he decides to abandon the world of crime, which doesn't go well with Bhaiyaji.

Should I go ahead with the plot? Well,its a pure cliché, which is churned into a cauldron of romance, ample naach-gaana,daru-shaaru and action.A lot of energy is infused by the flamboyant Ranveer who proves his mettle at comedy yet again with terrific one-liners.He is ably armed with the perky and piquant Parineeti who is effortless as far as the acting chops go , but crippled with outrageous styling and ill-sketched characterization.A series of SMS exchanges between the duo provides genuine 'LOL' moments.Equally noteworthy is the job interview sequence which lands Ranveer up in desperation to crack.Ali Zafar provides the balancing act here with his self-restrain while Govinda makes a praise-worthy comeback in a negative role.In fact, with the catchy soundtracks ( Shankar-Ehsaan- Loy)and the veteran's signature steps, it does manage to keep you in the groove.

In spite of all these positives, Kill Dill is muddled with a hackneyed script and over-simplistic treatment which doesn't give any depth to the characters and you know you are tricked only when it ends abruptly , after running a little more than two hours.If you want to know my verdict, I would label it as another Yashraj flick with an infamous 'style over substance' tag.

Rating :2.5/5

90's masala popcorn films are back thanks to movies like Wanted , Dabangg , Rowdy Rathore. Unfortunate part is that movies are getting repeated and outdone and the essence of the flavor is dying. Kill Dil tries hard to entertain you but falls flat on the face.

Kill Dill tells the story of two orphans raised by a godfather who turns out to be hit-men. Things go wrong after one of them falls in love with a girl and leaves the gang to lead a peaceful and normal life away from guns and violence.

From the director of Bunty aur Babli and Jhoom Barabar Jhoom, not much was expected from Shaad Ali. The lousy direction , insensible screenplay and terrible story gives you a headache which you never asked especially from stars like Parineeti Chopra, Renveer Singh and Govinda. There is no plot here and frequent insertion of songs just spoils the entire mood of the film. Music is a complete letdown. Art direction and cinematography is decent. Ranveer Singh and Parineeti Chopra disappoints big time. For the first time in their career , he does not do justice to his role. The veteran Govinda is wasted.

Overall, Kill Dil is loud, lousy and unconvincing. Not recommended. 1/5

On a lazy sunday afternoon switched on Amazon prime and decided to watch Ranveer Singh's KILL/DILL. Honestly the movie is good. I was put off by the ratings but this movie was really good. It had laughs, good bonding between Ali and ranveer. Good chemistry between ranveer and parineeti. Songs were terrible. The ending was very good, not the usual Bollywood ones which one would expect. Worth one-time watch.
