SHAADI MEIN ZAROOR AANA MOVIE REVIEW:
STORY LINE:
                          Hailing from a conservative family, Aarti Shukla (Kriti Kharbanda), an educated girl from Kanpur, falls in love with her arranged match Satyendra (Rajkummar Rao). Sattu's stable government job (clerk in excise dept) and upper class family background impresses her parents; while his humility and liberal thoughts, win over the girl. But the love story takes a drastic turn when Aarti flees on her wedding day, leaving Satyendra at the altar.


REVIEW:  
                        Fearing she'll end up as a housewife after marriage, an ambitious Aarti sacrifices her love for Sattu as she chooses career and independence. Scarred with rejection, heartbreak and societal humiliation, Sattu becomes a changed man. Years later, fate brings them together. What unfolds forms the story.
                                 
                                     Though director Ratnaa Sinha addresses various social issues (dowry, bribe, gender equality) in her overstretched and a tad outdated tale, her film is predominantly a romantic drama that seems inspired by Jane Austen's Persuasion. Class and gender disparity, revenge, jealousy and eternal love - it ticks all boxes.

                                        However, unlike Austen's classic that beautifully captures the simmering tension, regret and passion between two former lovers, this one leaves a lot to imagination.
                                            
                                         
                                                     What then keeps you engaged despite the rather implausible plot riddled with misunderstandings is some real good performances, led by the very talented Rajkummar Rao. Whatever he touches turns to gold. His subtle and honest portrayal of Sattu is a testament to his much talked about acting brilliance. Kriti Kharbanda exudes charm and simplicity, thus complimenting Raj perfectly.
                
                                        The film could have been much better than it eventually turns out to be. But if you don't mind watching a modest family drama, reminiscent of the 90s, you won't mind being privy to this emotional alliance.


REVIEW MASTER RATING:3.2/5

Aval movie review

Aval movie cast :.         Siddharth, Andrea Jeremiah, Anisha Angelina Victor Aval movie director: Milind Rau The advent of horror comedies has seemingly reduced the interest in filmmakers in the south Indian industry to make a full-length horror film that could make audience cower in their seats biting their nails while trying to look away from the screens. An honest terror-inducing film from the rarely explored horror genre in Tamil cinema had been long overdue. And Aval is here to fill that void. Director Milind Rau and actor Siddharth, who has also co-written Aval, has whipped up a bold and smart horror film that grabs you by your throat and retains its firm grip until the end. The suffering of two families haunted by ghosts and the people who try to help them is set in the backdrop of beautiful landscapes of Himachal Pradesh and it’s 2017. The seed for the story was sowed during the 1930s. Dr Krishna (Siddharth), a successful brain surgeon and...

An insignificant man movie review:-                                                      Funded by India's biggest crowdfunding campaign and Sundance, An Insignificant Man is a non-fiction political thriller following ArvindKejriwal& the AamAadmi Party, during the 2013 Delhi election campaign. The film goes behind closed doors of the new party, as it tries to shake up Indian politics, while struggling to keep it's own idealism alive.                                                                The mark of a good documentary is that you forget that the events unfolding on the screen are not fiction. An Insignificant Man achieves that and even surpasses it. ArvindKejriwal become...

Blade runner 2019 movie review

Blade Runner 2049 Story: Thirty years after the events of the first film, a new blade runner, LAPD Officer K (Ryan Gosling), unearths a long-buried secret that has the potential to plunge what is left of society into chaos. K's discovery leads him on a quest to find Rick Deckard (Harrison Ford), a former bladerunner who has been missing for 30 years. Blade Runner 2049 Review:  It would be easy to accuse Hollywood of making another massive cash grab by revisiting Ridley Scott's sci-fi cult classic 'Blade Runner'. 35 years after the original in 1982, what other reason would there be for going back to that unique world? Turns out that it's the one that made the most sense - to tell a great story helmed by a masterful storyteller. Denis Villeneuve is fast approaching the upper echelons of modern-day directors, and his vision here is so well-defined and executed that it wouldn't be a far stretch to say he has already arrived. This is not just a ...
