1942: A Love Story

This movie reminds me that what indians were suffering yesterday, is paid Innocent Kashmiris, i hope one day Bollywood would make a neutral movie on Maqbooza Kashmir

"1942 A Love story" is a portray of a beautiful love story with the backdrop of the Indian struggle for freedom.The plot is still the same of a love story but unlike other Bollywood movies the villains are not the parents but the political turmoil of 1942.

Vidhu Vinod who was just three movie old when he made this movie teams up with the genius Sanjay Leela Bhansali ( screenplay) to deliver a movie which is definitely the best of 93.With an impressive star cast of Anil Kapoor, Prem , Jackie Shroff,Danny, Ashish Vidyarthi and Anupam Kher this one could have never gone wrong.

The story runs on two parallel lines one is the love story between Rajjo(Manisha Koirala) and Narender(Anil Kapoor). The other story is about the assassination of general Douglas.

THe music of the movie is absolutely amazing R.D.Burman delivers yet another masterpiece which was unfortunately his last. Manisha Koirala fits so well in the role of an innocent and beautiful young girl.THe introductory scene of Manisha Koirala is absolutely amazing."Ek Ladki KO " and Kuch Na Kaho are one of the best pasteurized songs. Kuch Na Kaho gets you into the moment so well.THe on screen kiss if definitely one of the best on the Indian screen.

Javed Akhtar wrote the songs that are just a brilliant example of superb poetry.THe songs are a part of the story and since they are so good you don't get irritated when they pop up unlike other Hindi movies.

The story takes a sharp turn just before the interval after the death of Anupam Kher when Manisha Koirala is rescued by Jackie Shroff and the conditions forces Anil Kapoor to jump into the struggle of Indian independence.

performance wise Jackie steals the show delivering the role of a young and self driven freedom fighter he is able to portray the emotions and feelings to picture perfect.BUt that does not undermines the performances of other actors.

I give this movie a 9 out of 10 a must watch for people who believe that Indian cinema is not dead yet and there are great film- makers who will deliver the best when ever they could

I enjoyed the movie. I watched first time a Binod Bidhu Chopra film. I think, it is a great musical - romance-patriotic film. Yeah, u heard right. In one side, all songs are made in a very masterly style which will make ur mind romantic. Likewise, romance between narendra Singh alias Naren n Rajashree Pathak alias Rajjo will get ur critical mind off n able to think u into the love world. On the other side, a plot to assassinate Goughlous creat a revolutionaries among freedom fighters even two lovers will put themselves in the process of gaining independence nation from the circa of British rule.

I give this film 8 out of 10. N yes I'll suggest u to watch this film which has been made on the backdrop of 42's 'quit India movement'.

Whatever the historical exaggerations, this remains a hugely romantic film with wonderful music.

I only have one wo this movie: lush

This is a movie where you just need to switch off the critical side of the brain.

Enjoy it for what it is.

After reading so many positive things about the film, I sat to watch 1942 : A Love Story for the first time. But, while watching the 1st half, I was thinking how can this be a great film. But, when the 1st half ended and the 2nd half had begun, it totally surprised me and from then I couldn't move from my seat.

Both halves are completely different. The 1st half is a beautiful, musical episode. In the other hand, the 2nd half is so strong and emotional that even I couldn't control my tears in some scenes. Also I was feeling goosebumps in many moments. Besides, we all know, this film features one of the greatest soundtracks of Indian Cinema. I think many have already seen this film, for those who have not seen it yet, I'll say watch it.

Available on Amazon Prime Video & Netflix.
