Not a Love Story

RGV comes again with another Good Movie.as everyone knows that its based on a real story and the way it is shot gives it very realistic look.the cinematography is brilliant but at first you will find it a little weird.The sound design is perfect.The first half is about murder and the second half is about police investigation.The story is about a girl who have big dream to be an actress,how she comes to Mumbai and how something that brutal happens in a city like Mumbai.the Movie is shot in the same building where actual murder was occurred.the actress Mahi Gill and Deepak Dobriyal both have done Mindblowing job. another thing,this movie is not at all for all those mas-ala and mainstream movie lovers. there are some brilliant symbolic scenes like the fish in the fish tank and how the building looks normal from the outside.the song Rangeela re will give you goosebumps if you can feel it specially the line"Itne Chehro me Apne Chehro Ki Pehchan to ho,bade bade Naamo Mai Apna Bhi Namonishan to ho"cause it suits so well to the situation. on the whole if you have understanding for such kind of cinema then its a worth watch.........

Not a love story is a Masterpiece by Ram Gopal Varma. It is slow paced movie,In few minutes you will be connected to the movie and then it would be impossible to disconnect yourself. It brings fear of situation and bad time in you.It brings practicality of life in you.Its ultimately defines and defies LOVE.Its 'Not A Love Story' Its Love,Just Pure form of Love.

Performances: Every person involved to the film has done his or her best.I would like to appreciate Mahie Gill and Deepak Dobriyal for amazing acting and Mr.Ram Gopal Varma for Superb Direction. Dialogue writer has written a few touching lines which make you shiver. Background music of rangeela in the end was so perfect..!!

I Recommend this Movie.

I watched the TV serial version of this and I have to admit that was better than this movie.the story of this movie is actually suited for a TV show.And more than that this film looks boring because of its camera-view.there was lots of buzz about the camera work but it was simply awful.its not a very commercial type movie.Maybe class audiences like this.acting was average but the camera work and flow of story makes it very very dull.music is bad as well.overall,awful.you will have to give an afford not to fall asleep during watching this.Not worth watching.But again if you are a fan of rgv you may just want to watch it.

This movie had an intriguing real story as a reference point and a potential to really turn a cracker of a movie out of it dwelling into the different personalities and their motives around the event. Unfortunately, Ramgopal Verma prefers to focus more on Mahi's assets and his creepy perverted camera angles focusing on Mahi's body takes away from the whole story.

Into the second half, about 10 minutes of Zakir's early investigation makes you hope that the second half would be better. But by then the movie has dug itself into a big hole and is not able to get out.

Do yourself a favor. Read Meena Baghel's take on the event in her book instead.

well, if you want a lame screenplay with a formulaic scenario and storyline to become at least has the potential to get some box office gross, the first thing you producers or director got to do is finding a marketable female actress to be such main character. but the basic requirement seemed to become a lost cause from the very beginning. this female cast was a big mistake. a woman already past her prime, looked so unattractive with her ordinary features, a lightly hooked nose, meaty and fleshy face and body, there were no ingredients that could ever make her realize the dream of becoming a bollywood star but a bimbo or even a playmate-like whore, by sleeping and selling her body and soul to any potential dream maker she could find, just as what the movie itself predictably rendered in the end. such lame and overly used scenario/plot/storyline have already been used elsewhere thousand times. if the main character, the heroine, is an eye candy, then it still got the chance of being barely watchable, but....
