Manmarziyaan

This one is another gem from Anurag. It's one of my favourite films that came out in 2018. This film feels like reading a book. Such a delite to see detailed characterisation for even the side characters in the story. But, unfortunately this is a film ahead of its time for Indian audience.

To be honest seeing a box office disaster i never watched it upon its release. Movie is somewhere 5 star to 6 but i am giving it a 7 for the brilliant acting of Abhishek Bachchan, he has everything, every damn thing of acting, too bad movie choices over the year was poor. Vicky Kaushal, you are amazing, a role brilliantly done. Last but not least Tapsee Pannu, i am completely in love. Beauty with acting skills, hard rock acting. Watched this movie, upon hearing some good words during Koffee with Karan and i was like this movie was a flop why praising it. So decided to see and then i realise what i missed. It's not every day romantic, jokes filled movie, it is a love story and with a message that if you want to love someone let the person be free, it is yours it will come to you. Love is without any restrictions and conditions and hence this movie is all about. A good watch.

The oldest concept of the bollywood world - love triangle - shown in a brilliant way.. abhishek bacchan steals the show !!! Tapsee and Vicky have performed amazingly!! Just go watch it!!

The movie is very realistic unlike the usual Bollywood love stories. It portrays the confusion the characters are going through so well. Acting is just brilliant, specially Vicky Kaushal. Songs are beautiful. People are saying that the 2nd half is boring but it's supposed to be laid back to show the connect of the two characters. It's a movie which is definitely not made for people who just want to laugh n watch unreasonable love stories and are extremely close minded. If you have good taste in movies you will love it. Much better than the so called classic love stories like dil wale. The only drawback was the excessive use of the word fyaar. Rest beautiful.

Starts well, keeps you engaged. But post intermission, it just gets super repetitive. I don't know why anurag kashyap didn't cut the movie much earlier at time of review. This easily could have been shorter by half hour.

But watchable overall.
