Piku Review - An Amazing Journey ! :)

Its about a journey that Piku (Deepika Padukone) a working single daughter who takes care of her father , Rana Chaudhary (Irrfan Khan) the owner of Call  Cab Service & Bhaskor (Amitabh Bachchan) an old frustrated father suffering constipation; embarks upon & how this journey from delhi to kolkata changes their life.

The Screenplay is very raw, funny & witty, the conversations revolves around shit, still it makes you laugh throughout, there's not a single point when it dims down. The conversations seems very natural as if you're sitting at your house with these characters. The Acting is just fabulous; Amitabh Bachchan steals the show as a constipated chid-chida Uncle, Deepika padukone is blunt & charming at the same time, Irrfan Khan plays it effortlessly with brilliant comic timing as always. Director captures the journey with his heart and it shows. Each & every character is so lively & have a life of his own, which makes you wanna tag along this journey with them. It is visually very pleasing to the eyes. There's a calmness & a sense of peace to the movie.

Melodious, Lively & a Happy Journey with Amazing Characters.

Go for this journey along with them, you'll love it !

Badlapur Review - Good, but a bit overrated.

The movie is about Raghu (varun dhawan) whose family gets killed & is seeking revenge throughout, planning to destroy the person (Nawazzuddin) who killed his wife & son. 

No doubt its a good movie. The direction is raw & gripping. The performances are intense & commendable, especially Varun dhawan & Nawazzuddin siddique. But, writing is a bit lazy and you don't feel that connected. The performances hold the viewers and not the script itself. The screenplay could have been more ruthless and engaging. The music is soulful & aggressive, which is perfect for the film. 


Its the journey of Raghu seeking revenge. 


Its an experience. Go for the performances & for the director 'sriram raghavan' !

Margarita with a straw review - Beautiful, Lively, Honest & Inspiring :)

Its the journey of a College girl 'Laila' suffering from celebral palsy; about how she falls in love, handles rejections, manages her sex life, explores her sexuality, faces everything with a smile on her face.

I loved  the screenplay of the movie as the writer focuses on the everyday life & those little things  that she goes through & How the writer shows her journey as if she's a normal college girl dealing with her problems & heartbreaks & not focusing mostly on the disability/ emotional aspect of it. The Direction is very good & shows that the director is a very good observer of the subject and the chores of subject. It feels like as if you are peeking through someone's life. Music is soothing & energetic; gives a warm feel to the movie.

Very simple, yet impactful.

You will leave with a smile on your face.
