A Must Told Story - Weak Screenplay Thereby Lost It's Magic
20 April 2024
*** Do Aur Do Pyaar Hindi Movie Review ***

Directed by Shirsha Guha Thakurta starring Vidya Balan Pratik Gandhi in lead roles. Also starring Ileana D'Cruz and Sendhil Ramamurthy.

A story of an estranged couple's love story - A story must be told in today's time but a weak screenplay thereby detaching from the movie.

A story of a couple who had been married for 12 years had lost touch in their relationship. The movie takes us through the journey of Anirudh & Kavya, their estranged relationship and their extra marital relationship and the movie in the 1st half shows this both phases. At the interval we could see how things goes changing which leads us to the second half of the movie.

The second half shows us their attempt to restart in relationship, detachment from their external love but the screenplay in many areas falls nose dive as after a certain point it's becoming a slow paced & viewers get detached keeping aside the little fun moments.

Performance wise Pratik Gandhi & Vidya Balan gave their best performances. Illeana also done a decent job. Sendhil was a mis-cast.

Songs were blending with the situation.

Overall a topic which had been discussed well but with a better screenplay in 2nd half could have been much more watchable.
