Do Aur Do Pyaar

Do Aur Do Pyaar" might be flying under the radar in terms of marketing, but its impactful plot deserves to be discovered. This emotional roller coaster promises a theatrical experience on the big screen.

The film boasts impeccable performances from its entire cast, taking audiences on a two-hour plus journey filled with depth and emotion. Pratik Gandhi and Vidya Balan shine, stealing the spotlight with their compelling portrayals. Even with limited screen time, Illena and Sendhil deliver noteworthy performances. Thalaivasal Vijay adds genuine emotional depth to every scene he graces.

The plot unfolds slowly and steadily, akin to a live theatre performance translated onto the big screen. While this style might not appeal to everyone, it offers a refreshing change from typical mainstream cinema.

"Do Aur Do Pyaar" attempts to bring Netflix-style content to cinemas, blending depth with entertainment. This film is a must-watch, especially for its outstanding performances that elevate the narrative to new heights.

Interwoven complex mature relationships, this category of movies has a separate fan base & I am not one of them. So as far as my viewing prowess goes, Arth (1982) by Mahesh Bhatt was one of the first of its kind followed by Astitva (2000) by Mahesh Manjrekar but both these were pretty serious movies, but the recent ones are served with a dash of humour (Remember De De Pyar De - 2019) and for this who better than Vidya Balan. She was amazing in the movie & thanks to the team for rendering the classic - Bin tere sanam on some of the grooviest dance steps by Vidya Balan & Pratik Gandhi. Both Pratik Gandhi & Vidya Balan have made this average storyline work just because of their performances. Unexpectedly but on a good note the music and the songs were equally good. Ileana too shines in a short cameo. Would have really worked well for the production house if it was only an OTT release. This is a type of movie which will be mostly enjoyed by couples in their late 30's to early 40's & going through a bit of a turmoil in their existing marriage. An excellent weekend watch with your partner over a cup of cold coffee.

Kavya Ganesan and Ani Banerjee are on the verge of separation after 12 years into their marriage. Both are having affair with Vikram and Nora, respectively. Vikram is a photographer and Nora is an aspiring actress, both love their respective partners for who they are while Kavya and Ani resort to their pretend selves in their marriage. Just when they are finally planning to tell each other about ending the marriage, sparks fly enough to let them rekindle their love story. What happens when Kavya and Ani want to give themselves another chance while Vikram and Nora get restless waiting, forms rest of the story.

Sendhil as Vikram and Ileana as Nora are good but they are pushed to play second fiddle as the film truly belongs to Vidya Balan and Pratik Gandhi as they bring Kavya and Ani alive on screen. It is a complex story dealing with complex emotions and since I have not seen the original, I truly enjoyed the narrative getting driven by the conversations alone between Kavya and Ani. Those innuendos, the flirting and to keep the treatment as casual as possible is what worked the best for this film. However, bollywood's desperation for happy ending to be the only acceptable resolution, undid the efforts of the charming duo. It truly could have ended up as a superb film rather than a film with few superb moments. I hope the writers had put the same faith on their screenplay which they put on their lead pair.

I am 22 and I have never been in any kind of relationship ever but I don't why but it felt so good watching this movie. Seeing two persons who got so entangled in their life that they forgot how good it was being together. But when they slowly get that time back re living those moments it really brings a smile it really does I hope I can live such moments with my partner and about the ending where they still go to different routes I am a bit conflicted on how to feel of this but I am glad they didn't took a safe ending and left it to the audience to interpret it Overall a really good watch in our daily busy life

FAVORITE CHARACTER :: PRATEEK GANDHI (BOTH ACTORS NAILED IT) FAVORITE MOMENT :: EATING NOODLES LIKE THEY USED TO.

A cheesy rom-com is quite common in any industry, but a mature love story is a rare scene. This falls under the latter category and has done justice to quite an extent.

It is the story of a couple who have been married for five years and are cheating with other partners as they have given up on each other. One evening, their love sparks again, and they fall in love with each other once more, but now they are in a dilemma.

Vidya Balan in the lead is a treat to watch. She handles her character with a lot of grace and quirkiness that you can't help but fall in love with her. Pratik Gandhi gives a decent performance, but as a Bengali character, he still sounds like a Gujarati, which is not ideal. The chemistry between Vidya and Pratik is literally not there, which is a big letdown. Ileana D'Cruz is a breath of fresh air and handles her part with a lot of grace. Sendhil Ramamurthy is brilliant in his portrayal of an NRI and shines throughout.

The story of getting bored in a marriage and seeking love outside of it is very common, and it is handled well by Shirsha Guha Thakurta. Despite being an innovative plot, you can guess the ending from miles away, which diminishes the overall experience. The songs aren't that great either.

The writing is a bit weak as it stays on the superficial level of the relationship and doesn't really make you root for the characters. As a result, viewers miss that emotional connection. It can be watched once, but there is nothing to boast about. #pranureviews #DoAurDoPyaar #DoAurDoPyaarReview.
