Excruciatingly slow is the best way to describe this movie...I had trouble keeping my eyes open in the end..A Deepa Mehta movie is generally a good viewing...but this one disappointed me..The idea of the SheshNag was something I found hard to digest...Moreover the mythological story was told in a disjointed manner which made it pretty hard to follow...The performances are good...especially by Vansh who has the intensity required to portray the character of 'Rocky'..and Preity Zinta does give the right expressions..but seems too old to be playing a newly married girl..
5/10

This movie is as explicit as they come...everything about this movie is unpretentious...the director gives no excuses for anything...Dev being a loser...Sexually expressive Paro...the characters are seeped in reality...one cant help but identify their traits in one's own personality... The cinematography is a visual treat...and the background score is amazing...contrary to what many critics have said...the songs actually help the pace of the movie...there were a few slack points in the screenplay..mainly in the last half hour where the movie seemed to lose its pace which it has built up so nicely...the climax seems hurried through and disjointed...but there's a nice interpretation by Kashyap to Dev D's actual love...
Abhay Deol has does justice to the character and his preparation is commendable...be it losing 10 kg..or drinking non stop for two weeks...His portrayal of the narcissist Dev is probably one of the better performances by an Indian actor in the last 5 years...He alone has more acting talent than the rest of the Deol family put together...
Mahi Gill is a delight to watch in the role of Paro...the characters boldness is matched by her expressions and dialog delivery...one wishes there was more of her in the 2nd half...but Kalki more than makes up for it by the innocently smart portrayal of Chanda..
Movie to be watched on a Friday night...gulp down 2 pegs of vodka...and enjoy the ride1
