Tadka is a romance film directed by prakash raj which is an official hindi remake of the malayalam film "salt n pepper".
Nana patekar is in a fine form. At age 65, he is pushing romantic lines and describing beauty about a purer love and it does not cone as gimmicky. His expressions and especially dialogue delivery is on point. Truely a stalwart of indian cinema. Shriya saran too shines with her acting. At many places, her dubbing was not good. Ali fazal and especially taapsee pannu are wasted here. Taapsee, in her initial years was really an amateur actor. Other characters don't have much space to be fleshed out.
The music is decent. The background score is strictly average. It does not help that the bgm continuously keeps playing at all times. The cinematography is pretty good. The song between ali and taapsee is really oddly placed.
The film beautifully incorporates the beauty of food and delicacy but somehow it throws away that advantage and becomes a typical romantic film. Also the dubbing of taapsee was disheartening and tone-deaf.
As much as i like it, i hope it coukd hv been much more better. I rate it 7 out of 10.
