Atrangi Re Movie Review: So Complicated, Yet So Simple! A Twisted Love Triangle With More Than Three Angles
The brilliance of Himanshu Sharma's script is that it doesn't rely much on 'the twist' as it keeps building to one soul-fatiguing climax.
What’s Good: It’s a twisted love triangle with its edge so sharp that it busts all the perceptions of “What romance should be?” & the urge of finding someone as hopeless as romantic as Dhanush
What’s Bad: It makes you cry but fails to make toh laugh apart from a couple of funny sequences
Loo Break: Definitely, not during the songs!
Watch or Not?: This will test your patience at times but trust me, it’s all for the better!
OK, thus, before we get into the story left me alone as clear as could be expected, I will not have the option to clarify it completely keeping the contort and excites flawless. Along these lines, whatever I expound on the story, accept that as a small portion of what's in the film. The story spins around Rinku (Sara Ali Khan) who is frantically enamored with her performer sweetheart Sajjad Ali (Akshay Kumar). Because of the conspicuous cast-conflict, Rinku's poisonous family does her 'Jabariya Shaadi' (constrained marriage) by seizing a lucky man for her named Vishu (Dhanush).
Vishu, an amiable and respectful specialist, prior to arriving in the present circumstance was good to go to assault his better half's wedding to make a brave passage making it essential for them. In any case, destiny unites Vishu and Rinku who eventually succumb to one another. This prompts a circle of drama between Vishu, Rinku and Sajjad (I'm making it sound easy to not ruin anything, trust me it's not) and it's significantly more than which fellow would get the young lady eventually. (Golly! I figured out how to tell the core without uncovering anything).
Atrangi Re Movie Review: Script Analysis
Think about a circle of drama, presently envision every one of the stages blends you can imagine and what could occur in the existences of those three individuals to get till an outcome, Himanshu Sharma's account of Atrangi Re won't fit even in a solitary part of whatever you recently anticipated. The content significantly features PTSD (post-awful pressure problem) upheld by a torturing wretchedness of a specific person in the film. It falls in the 'so convoluted at this point so straightforward' class of stories as the contort, which may get dreary and unconvincing for a couple as the film advances, won't allow anybody to leave the film lobby with a weak perspective.
The brightness of Sharma's content is that it doesn't depend much on 'the contort' as it holds working to one soul-exhausting peak not long before it makes you grin prior to leaving. The whole film is only a surge of feelings going from "gracious, f*ck that is so shocking" to "what is in any event, occurring on-screen?" and trust me Sharma and Aanand L Rai figure out how to return every one of the pieces together to wrap up this intricating piece of workmanship.
Does it at any point miss the mark? Indeed! Where? Satire! Given the history of what degree Rai and Sharma (Tanu Weds Manu and Returns, first 50% of Zero) could go to stimulate your entertaining bone, this is not even close to it. I additionally get how much the story should depend upon needs to depend on dramatization, yet there was a fantastic measure of extension.
Remarkably encouraging cinematographer Pankaj Kumar (Haider, Tumbbad, and forthcoming – Brahmastra) adds his supernatural new touch upgrading the look and feel of the film. Rai and Sharma complete their believed triplet with supervisor Hemal Kothari, who had a very muddled work this time in sewing together a tangled screenplay without many knocks.
Atrangi Re Movie Review: Star Performance
Dhanush and Sara Ali Khan stay to be the spirit, heart of the film with AR Rahman's music (more on that underneath) going about as blood to keep them alive and siphoning. Dhanush simply claims each edge he's infusing unadulterated conviction in each scene. There's a delightfully written scene where he talks in Tamil, with practically no captions except for regardless of whether you know the language, you'll in any case get what he's attempting to say and that is Dhanush for you.
Regardless of Dhanush's remarkable presence, it's Sara Ali Khan's apparent endeavors that concretes the desire for how better she could get with a legitimate content close by. It wasn't only the easy actual properties of Rinku that she becomes capable at, yet in addition the balance of her complement that she handily controls.
In the midst of all the acting and show, Akshay Kumar, sadly, stays to be the most fragile connection of every one of the three. It's not on the grounds that his person doesn't relatively have equivalent profundity, it's simply too routine stuff from somebody who himself has set the norms excessively high. Ashish Verma, assuming the part of Dhanush's companion, is squandered and it's more irritating on the grounds that we've seen the sort of ability he has to deal with satire which stays to be unused here.
Atrangi Re Movie Review: Direction, Music
Aanand L Rai takes the most straightforward course to arrive at a very confounded objective, taking everything into account. He tries to keep the interest alive more often than not building things in a hurry while moving towards the completion point. He generally attempts to keep a legitimate harmony between humor and parody yet this one remaining parts to be his most one of a kind effort to portray a story.
Rai makes history by finishing the film with "A film by AR Rahman" and fortunately so on the grounds that the melodies unite everything. Rait Zara Si and Tumhein Mohabat Hai will be on my playlist until the end of time. Following Rahman's style, the tunes aren't simple songs yet go about as stretched out discoursed to the story.
Atrangi Re Movie Review: The Last Word
All said and done, Atrangi Re is way much more than being your standard circle of drama. An exceptionally inviting change for Bollywood to figure out how you can recount to a deep rooted story in such countless various ways. Stay tuned to Koimoi.
