La saveur de l'amour

Neeraj kabi and Shefali Shah are natural in front of camera. There is one more character in the movie that is city's loneliness which is in sync with two lead actors feelings. I am not going to reveal much of the story but perfect movie for Shefali and Neeraj fans. From Satya to Once again she has performed variety of roles and this will be rated as one of her best. Kudos to The Team.

Nowaday movie lack lot of simplicity. This movie offers you exactly the same. These two characters don't speak much but they say so much through their silence.. it's hard to find such talent..I felt butterflies after ages..just fall in love once again..

What worked:

• amazing performances by Neeraj Kabi and Shefali Shan; there is no doubt they were the right cast for their respective roles
• beautiful and balanced screenplay. It's a story that we want to see but we rarely try to make movies about the topic and the circumstances.

What did not work:

• I loved the ending , no doubt. I was thinking of an alternate ending with the scenes that was shown at the end and maybe add some more dialogues which narrates that the reality and the imaginary worlds are yet to be met and accepted by the society and the world around them. It's still a great ending

Final verdict: Recommended for sure

The leads are major stars, and the film is enjoyable to watch them develop their characters. But both the writing and direction meander and stop and start to such an extent the film became annoying, even boring. And after all the misdirections, I didn't believe the ending at all.

The movie has an element of realism. Shefali Shah portrays her character beautifully, and makes the movie watchable. Every scene with her is worth watching. The phone conversations between the characters were well done, I think some of the best lines in the movie is during these scenes. A lot of it is good, the wide pan shots of the city, the bustling in the streets at night, the shots of Shefali in the restaurant cooking were the best moments of the film. However, the movie suffers from the melodramatic music, overtly emotional and sometimes completely unsuitable to the scene itself, making what could have been a good scene into something akin to an amateur film school student's creation. The ending is also uncharacteristic of the rest of the movie, makes little sense and leaves the viewer utterly unsatisfied. This is not to say that an ambiguous ending is not good, it just was not done very well, unlike "Lunchbox", another movie with a similar theme of loneliness. The movie could have been a lot more if there was sharper editing, removal of weird dancing montages and a more well thought out ending. Overall, though I do not regret wartching it. It's worth a watch just for Shefali's performance. Very underrated actress.
