Inayaa and kartik's love story it's amazing. Highway is a visual and aural treat, a refreshing break from the monotonous story lines of the mainstream Bollywood cinema, a medley of emotions, an intricately woven cinematic tale of love, freedom and adventure. It is a wonderful representation of the unconventional Indian cinema from the likes of Anurag Kashyap, Dibakar Bannerjee and Raju Hirani. And because it scores wonderfully on all above parameters, it is a great movie. Loosely based on the Stockholm Syndrome, Highway has stellar performances from Alia Bhatt (actor), Randeep Hooda (actor) and the rest of the supporting cast as well. Alia's character had a lot of interesting quirks and a few grimy tales from the past which made for some excellent seasoning. She completely owns the house during the final 20 minutes of the movie. Rarely before have I witnessed a completely silenced audience, with their eyes glued to the big screen, unflinching, almost mesmerized by every frame. Rahman's music, as always, is tailor-made for every situation in the movie. From the sufi beginnings of "Patakha Guddi" to its rock outro to the soothing reverberations of Tu Kuja, every song is stupendous. The ending is what one can call "bittersweet" - it will leave you laughing, it will leave you crying, it will leave you mesmerized. Must watch movie!
