I believe that everything that happens in the film is the director's doing. Very rarely, do I feel like adding a separate comment about the director. Shouldn't 'acting drunk' be the primary qualification for an actor to be able to claim himself as one? The bits, and these are big bits, where he falters are those where he tries to convince us he's drunk. On the darker side, you also don't question why he has set himself on a path of self-destruction. Despite your cynicism, you believe how selfless he is.
She brings through Aarohi's simple-mindedness and commitment with poise.Īditya Roy Kapur does his good-at-heart RJ genuinely. I wouldn't take away from what she contributes as an actor here, but she has a charming screen presence. Shraddha Kapoor's innocent face does half the work for her. Interestingly enough, the actors cannot be entirely put to fault for this. It's not because I am with them in this journey of theirs. But, I know it because of what the characters do for each other or say to each other. Isn't that what we want our loved one to do for us? Isn't that what we'd do for our beloved?Īnd there came the realisation! I know Aarohi and RJ are in love with each other. After all here are two lovers, both singers of star status, one sticking on to the other when the going gets bad. But hey, if you are waiting for what happens next, the film is working just fine. Sure, there's the slow pace that can be blamed for making you wait for what happens next. Here are lovers who take their time to fall in love and express it. But, every once in a while, there is a dialogue or a moment of introspection that makes you regard the character in new light. Fine, the broad stroke of the story is predictable. Once the characters Rahul Jaykar or RJ ( Aditya Roy Kapoor) and Aarohi ( Shraddha Kapoor) were established, it kept nagging me that I couldn't feel with the characters.
