Meri Pyaari Bindu Film Review By Manya Malhotra



Meri Pyaari Bindu

Romance
2.5
Cast: Parineeti Chopra, Ayushmann Khurrana, Aparajita Auddy,Rajatabha Dutta 
Director: Akshay Roy 
Story : Childhood sweethearts Abhimanyu and Bindu get separated .  Destiny , however has other plans for them as they   keep meeting each other repeatedly as they experience love, desperation ,heartbreak ,success and failure together.

Review: Meri pyaari Bindu takes you back to the 1990s . The basic concept of the film is not something that is very new but the writers try hard to stand out . The film starts off well ,it is cute and  has some chuckle worthy moments ,but you keep waiting for SOMETHING to happen in the film! You wait for that defining moment in the film without which the film just seems incomplete. It looks like the scenes of the film were all shot and then joined together like in a jigsaw puzzle.  The film is therefore not able to make much of a connect with the audience.Even if this is overlooked the film only goes down hill in the second half. Especially in the last twenty minutes where you are sitting on the edge of your seat anticipating the end of the movie but it just keeps  going on. The ending conversation of the film between Bindu and Abhimanyu is long and stretched . Supposedly ,the writers thought that there is nothing left to do and we need at least a two hour long run time, so why not make the lead actors have an unnecessarily long conversation (with it raining in the background to symbolise their sadness). Then let's  make them dance in the rain too!
This movie was supposed to be Parineeti chopra and Ayushmann Khurrana's break through film after the long sabbatical that both of them had taken . Parineeti chopra tries  to reinvent herself in the film but yet she still played the same old role of a bubbly ,carefree girl that she has played in almost every single one of her films. That being said I have always been a fan of her acting and that has still not changed. Except for a few scenes she does a pretty good job. Ayushmann Khurrana too is a natural actor  and he is convincing as Abhimanyu.
Meri Pyaari Bindu is like a journey which has quite a few bumps on the way but is enjoyable  when the road is smooth,and by the time you reach the destination you are not sure what to make of the journey!

I couldn't figure out whether the movie was worth watching or not but after reading this review I've finally made up my mind.. it's not.

Saiyaara: A Film Review and My Thoughts on Its Reception- By Manya Malhotra

  Saiyaara: A Film Review and My Thoughts on Its Reception   Saiyaara Reception and Backlash Saiyaara opened to an 84 crores net domestic box office figure on its opening weekend, a feat unheard of for a film with newcomers, in an industry still recognised as primarily star-led. (For context, the two major films starring newcomers in the past 13 years- Dhadak and Student of the Year, earned 33.65 and 30 crores respectively). I have been a Bollywood (or Hindi film industry) fan for as long as I can remember. Seeing one of its films get such a massive reception has been heartwarming, and I cannot remember the last time a film got so much love. It has now been two weeks since the film’s release. I have read both positive and negative reactions to the film’s unprecedented success, and after digesting it all, I thought it was finally time to revisit my blog and pen down my honest opinion on both the film and everything that has followed since its release. Skeptics will spin many t...

Darlings Film Review By Manya Malhotra

               Darlings Film Review By Manya Malhotra Cast :   Alia Bhatt, Vijay Verma, Shefali Shah, Roshan Mathew, Rajesh Sharma, Vijay Maurya Director:   Jasmeet K. Reen   Review :   Darlings is co-written by writer-director Jasmeet K Reen and Parveez Sheikh, who has films like Queen to his writing credits. It stars powerhouse performers like Alia Bhatt, Shefali Shah, and Vijay Verma — and is also Bhatt’s maiden film as a producer. Clearly, the expectations with this one are very high— and yet it still manages to make an impact.  Darling s tells the story of Badrunissa who suffers physical and psychological abuse at the hands of her husband before one day finally deciding to retaliate.  Make no mistake, Darlings is not an easy film to watch. It is infuriating but also determinedly terrifying. It lets you breathe but is also dangerously unsettling.    The first half of the film is the hardest to watch....

Ek Villain Returns Film Review By Manya Malhotra

    Ek Villain Returns Review ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ Cast : Arjun Kapoor, Disha Patani, John Abraham, Tara Sutaria Directo r: Mohit Suri Review: Ek Villain Returns is the smiley face-filled sequel to the Blockbuster film Ek Villain . If you did not get the smiley reference, you should probably  check out the first film in the franchise—or not if you value your sanity even a little. I went into the hall for Ek Villain Returns highly sceptical, and willing to wholly suspend disbelief. My decision to do so paid off greatly as I denied myself my usual urge to protest exasperatedly when the hero, or villain, or whatever humiliated and terrified a famous singer to clear the stage (literally) for an up-and-coming artist who he happened to fancy. I also bought it when, impressed by this charming gesture the girl ended up falling head over heels in love with the man.   This is Director Mohit Suri’s world, here love always coexists with pain...
