Featured review
Flick for a lazy Sunday afternoon
Six honeymoon couples on a bus trip to Goa - that lays the table wide open. Director Reema Kagti could have served whatever she wanted. A comedy about fumbling into martial bliss, a drama about discovering the challenges of being married, a social comment about how society and upbringing makes people view the institution of marriage differently. What she opts for is a multi-course meal with flavors of each. The result, an okay film that I'd suggest be better watched on a DVD at home instead of paying for a movie ticket.
There is all the variety you want. There is the married-against-wishes couple (Ranvir-Diya), married-and-at-peace couple (Abhay-Minnisha), married-and-u-have-changed-now couple (Kay Kay-Raima), married-and-i'm-confused couple (Newbie-Amisha), married-to-the-wrong-sex couple (Chatwal-Sandhya) and married-and-married couple (Boman-Shabana).
When you are telling a story about ordinary people and ordinary lives, you have a difficult task at hand. It is because you are telling the story of the very people sitting on the chairs of the movie hall and looking at the screen. You cannot lie to them or tell a story otherwise because it is their story. They know the beginning and they know the end. You have to be exact or you'll fail. If Kagti's story reminds anyone of their honeymoon and brings back forgotten memories, I guess whatever I say about this movie won't matter to them. That is the charm of telling simple stories. However, personally, I doubt this movie will remind anybody of anything.
The outstanding salsa by Abhay and Minnisha is the only take-home from the movie. 'Vaari-vaari' number is sure to be heard on the dance floors for a coming few months. Kay Kay has displayed his versatility and I'm sure we are going to see more of him in comedies. Amisha needs to learn that she need not keep smiling all the time, even while saying her lines. Boman, Shabana - these are minor challenges for them and they easy overcome. Raima Sen - I think she gets more screen time than any of the other female protagonists and she does full justice. Other actors get to do their bit and are okay.
