Dangal (2016)
Not a must watch, but throughout entertaining
A martinet father, two young girls and a story to instill fear of disrespecting elders.
This is not a movie to promulgate importance of girl child, neither is it a movie to bolster the idea of equality between boys and girls. This is a movie on discipline, being abstinent from worldly pleasures, and on being a believer of conventional wisdom.
This is not a documentary, so don't watch it with the eyes of scrutinizing validity of events.
Is it funny? Only a few bits here and there were. It was not a laugh riot like PK.
Is it emotional? Will you cry? Only if young you had faced a strict disciplinarian father.
Will you be bored? Not at all. Time will fly, thanks to optimal story pace, supporting characters, and sense of learning wrestling with the girls in the movie.
PK (2014)
A great social comedy movie
First half of the movie focuses on comedic aspect. I think the last time I heard such hearty laughs were at 3 idiots screening. Amir Khan's acting is brilliant as always. Whoever wrote this story had given it much thought on the basic idea as it was thought provoking and tries to shatter the root of evil in our religious society.
But the upper layers of the story were like any other Indian movie, with same emotional drama in awkward places, a love story, an evil guy who gets ridiculed, etc. Thus the movie couldn't get too deep. It couldn't deliver to its full potential, but at any moment in the story I didn't feel bored. Songs are right on spot and creates a good mood.
The movie also makes you realize how colorful, beautiful yet complex Indian society is. If you liked the movie Oh my god! then I am sure you would like this too. Worth a watch anyway.
