Tadap

It's good that I didn't watch RX100 first. Went into theatre with some expectations and spoiler alert: "Not Disappointed".(and that too even after knowing the suspense) Since it is directed by Milan Luthria, I knew I am going to hear some good dialogues throughout.(take Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai for example) I wasn't bore or felt like leaving at any stage.

Pritam did a good job at music. (especially that Arijit's humming during scenes) particularly, "Tumse Bhi Zyaada" standout the most (even still playing in my mind) The only drawback that I see was Ahan's acting, don't get me wrong, It is not like he did a horrible job there, It is just his acting lacked "intensity" that the character needed. (but pretty good considering it is his debut), Tara Sutaria did good.

But the performaces that standout were their reel life fathers, esepcially with their dialogue delivery.

So overall, it's a good watch.

RX100 made by Ajay Bhupati had a very good making and characters gets connected with the viewers which lacks here in this movie. The focused more on Ahan Shetty rather than the script. Not a good remake overall.

Whats the point in making the remake of a film that is already available in hindi dubbing on youtubr for free and knowing what the twist is. Personally, i didnt watch the entire RX100 but skipped to the climax just to see what might happen there and that was my biggest mistake! The twist got revealed exactly at that point and now i knew what would come in Tadap so that excitement to know what might happen to Ishana (whose name sounds like a girl) and Ramisa's relation is gone!

Still, i watched it to see how Ahan performs and what exactly happens in the entire film.

In the 1st half, i literally dozed off. On top of that, the guy named LOL (Ishana's friend) is sooo unLOL that he makes your skin crawl with irritation each time he cracks a lame joke.

The 2nd half is where it kind of takes off and gets interesting but again, whats the point? You know whats coming so there is hardly any interest in watching hence i skip-skip to the end. However, i didnt miss the point where I wanted to know why Ramisa did what she does to Ishana. I knew what she does, but i didnt know why she does that.

Ahan Shetty is in full Kabir Singh mode here and he is pretty decent. I cannot imagine Tara Sutaria in a role like this, she's so sweet and beautiful like Barbie doll....would have imagined someone like a Kangana do that role and it would feel justified but Tara, no! The guy who plays LOL is so bad!! Kumud and Saurabh are decent too.

Coming to songs, there is one song they have made better than RX100 and one inferior . TERE SIVA JAG is a very underwhelming song that portrays the love between Ahan and Tara but in the original that song was "Adire Hrudayam" and my god is that song so lusty and steamy , perfectly portrays the lusty love of the female lead over the male. It is however "Tum se bhi zyada" that is shot better than the original with contrasting scenes showcased as Ramisa gets mehendi on her hands and in contrast Ishana at the same time, gets blood in his hand as he is beaten up.

Overall, this film is average. There is no point in watching this film if you have seen the original. Watch only if you havent and i suggest you watch the original, same story but free of cost.

Now I saw both movies Rx100 in Telugu and Tadap in Hindi.

In my Opinion RX100 was good for one time watch with Brilliant music. But had flaws.

This Tadap is just Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V. The writer had nothing to put new things except location, characters name. Seriously nothing. That also they couldn't do properly.

Up on that it's just star kid career launching movie. But do he able to deliver that. Nope!!!

I am not saying to give this script to some other actor or any known actor but. But at least they could have done properly with screenplay.

Dialogues are ridiculous. No one talks like a normal person in this movie. Every one is giving a speech or some kind of lecture to each other.

I am not a fan of Tara Sutaria. She can't act. Up on that her choice of script or movie selections has been horrible. This movie might be her best choice. But she can't deliver lust full, nymphomaniac character. Also an evil personality which she needs to do. That demands years of tough characters portraying actress with young age. There are so many actress we have seen in recent years in OTT web series.

I am not a fan of Tadap music Album also. It's annoying and very forgettable music and songs.

Only one song plays repeatedly in the whole movie.

Better to listen RX100. It had soulful music.

Compare to Tadap music album, RX100 is a masterpiece music album with such beautiful sound design.

Tadap portrays the true face of women. False love always have sad ending. Songs are pretty good but the film could have been little better. The problem with the movie is it's screenplay. Ahan Shetty did a decent job. Tara Sutariya in a different role is good. She looked very beautiful in the movie. Saurav Shukla is also good. Overall Tadap is a average movie with a good message "Don't trust any girl" that's what I liked most in the movie.
