Atrangi Re

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.

Here is a Bollywood movie which tries to stay away from the beaten path but does so without losing the grip and the result is a nice feel good movie. The concept of the movie is unique with a very interesting twist.

The performances from the all actors especially Dhanush lift the movie Sara plays a very complex character and at times looks out of depth but manages well overall. Akshay is dependable as usual despite a smaller role. The screenplay and direction is good too as the movie doesn't drag much.

And one thing that gives the soul to the movie is the music by A R Rahman. The maestro is in top form here and delivers an outstanding soundtrack that gives the movie a great flavour.

Overall it's a good movie worth a watch.

Enjoyable content throughout the whole film. AR Rahman music definitely holds the film. Dhanush, Sara, Akshay played their roles well. Definitely a success for an OTT release!

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.

The story of the movie is really good but the movie is slow in parts. Loved the ending. Sara's acting is getting better.watch the movie for dhanush and akshay.
