Okay, so, earlier than we get into the story let me be as clear as doable, I gained’t be capable of clarify it totally retaining the twist & thrills intact. So, no matter I write concerning the story, take that as only a fraction of what’s within the movie. The story revolves round Rinku (Sara Ali Khan) who’s head over heels in love along with her magician boyfriend Sajjad Ali (Akshay Kumar). Because of the apparent cast-clash, Rinku’s poisonous household does her ‘Jabariya Shaadi’ (compelled marriage) by kidnapping a groom for her named Vishu (Dhanush).

Vishu, a well mannered & obedient physician, earlier than touchdown on this scenario was all set to raid his girlfriend’s marriage ceremony to make a heroic entry making it memorable for them. However, destiny brings Vishu & Rinku collectively who finally fall for one another. This results in a love triangle between Vishu, Rinku & Sajjad (I’m making it sound easy to not spoil something, belief me it’s not) and it’s much more than which man would get the woman in the long run. (Phew! I managed to inform the crux with out revealing something).

Atrangi Re Film Overview: Script Evaluation

Consider a love triangle, now think about all of the permutations-combinations you may consider and what may occur within the lives of these three individuals to get until a end result, Himanshu Sharma’s story of Atrangi Re gained’t match even in a single facet of no matter you simply predicted. The script majorly highlights PTSD (post-traumatic stress dysfunction) backed by a tormenting distress of a sure character within the movie. It falls within the ‘so sophisticated but so easy’ class of tales because the twist, which could get monotonous & unconvincing for a couple of because the movie progresses, gained’t let anybody go away the cinema corridor with a half-hearted viewpoint.

The brilliance of Sharma’s script is that it doesn’t rely a lot on ‘the twist’ because it retains constructing to at least one soul-fatiguing climax simply earlier than it makes you smile earlier than leaving. All the movie is only a rush of feelings starting from “oh, f*ck that’s so heartbreaking” to “what’s even occurring on-screen?” and belief me Sharma & Aanand L Rai handle to place all of the items again collectively to wrap up this intricating piece of artwork.

Does it ever fall quick? Sure! The place? Comedy! Given the observe report of what extent Rai & Sharma (Tanu Weds Manu & Returns, first half of Zero) may go to tickle your humorous bone, that is nowhere close to it. I additionally get how a lot the story is meant to rely on has to depend on drama, however there was an unbelievable quantity of scope.

Supremely promising cinematographer Pankaj Kumar (Haider, Tumbbad, and upcoming – Brahmastra) provides his magical contemporary contact enhancing the look & really feel of the movie. Rai and Sharma full their trusted trio with editor Hemal Kothari, who had an especially sophisticated job this time in stitching collectively a convoluted screenplay with out many bumps.

Atrangi Re Film Overview: Star Efficiency

Dhanush and Sara Ali Khan stay to be the soul, coronary heart of the movie with AR Rahman’s music (extra on that beneath) appearing as blood to maintain them alive and pumping. Dhanush simply owns each body he’s injecting pure conviction in each scene. There’s a fantastically penned scene through which he speaks in Tamil, with none subtitles however even in case you don’t know the language, you’ll nonetheless get what he’s attempting to say & that’s Dhanush for you.

Regardless of Dhanush’s distinctive presence, it’s Sara Ali Khan’s seen efforts that cements the hope of how higher she may get with a correct script in hand. It wasn’t simply the easy bodily attributes of Rinku that she turns into adept at, but in addition the modulation of her accent that she skillfully controls.

Amid all of the appearing and drama, Akshay Kumar, sadly, stays to be the weakest hyperlink of all three. It’s not as a result of his character doesn’t comparatively have equal depth, it’s simply too routine stuff from somebody who himself has set the requirements too excessive. Ashish Verma, taking part in the position of Dhanush’s pal, is wasted and it’s extra annoying as a result of we’ve seen the form of expertise he possesses to deal with comedy which stays to be unused right here.

Aanand L Rai takes the simplest route to succeed in an especially sophisticated vacation spot so far as the storytelling is anxious. He makes certain to maintain the intrigue alive more often than not constructing issues on the go whereas shifting in direction of the end level. He all the time tries to maintain a correct steadiness between humour & comedy however this one stays to be his most original try at narrating a narrative.

Rai creates historical past by ending the film with “A movie by AR Rahman” and fortunately so as a result of the songs carry all the things collectively. Rait Zara Si & Tumhein Mohabat Hai can be on my playlist without end. Following Rahman’s fashion, the songs aren’t mere melodies however act as prolonged dialogues to the narrative.
