Tara vs Bilal

A woman ditched by her husband in London opts for a fake marriage to return her country ultimately falling for him. This is the plot of this simple romantic comedy, which somewhat reminded me of Kangana Ranaut's "Queen." Perhaps it's one of the most underrated movies of the recent time, which has surprisgly garnered a low rating in imdb.

Believe me, it's not a kind of larger than life movie which will set history; but it's still an enjoyable film without a second of boredom, just like the light Hollywood entertainers "My Fat Greek Wedding" or "Nurse Betty." The non star cast gives a feeling of a TV movie but is nevertheless refreshing. The greatest virtue of the film is the refreshing camerawork and sound which superbly depicts the cityscape of modern London, for which I wished I had watched in it a theatre.

Rating: 2 stars out of 4.

Movie has a very good story. Great acting by Harshvardhan Rane and Sonia Rathee. Epic music. Amazing love story of an NRI and a desi girl. Lovely performance by the supporting characters as well 👏. Everything is perfectly balanced. A good masala mix. I found everything great. Just the cinematography could've more better. Otherwise I loved the film. Rane did an outstanding job. Sonia being a newbie has killed it. Both of them are much more talented than those star kids who are by products of nepotism. I would love to see more content like this from bollywood. Hats off to John Abraham for making an effort to present such a movie from bollywood.

Don't know why this movie has lower rating. I absolutely loved it. Such clever dialogues and wicked rumour is what I liked the most.

I don't even know the name of the main lead but I absolutely loved the guys acting. Even the girl did an awesome job.

Kudos to such movies. We need more movies like this. Netflix is a great platform for such movie and I genuinely hope this movie does better and the rating goes better here on from here.

The side actors also have done great job. It's a movie where by the end it will leave a smile on your face and you will have a good sleep.

Loved every bit of this movie! Cheers.

I hardly write any reviews but truly a feel good movie and great acting all around. Had such a great day after watching this movie and promoting the film to friends and family.

Watch this movie for what it is. People spend time and effort making a movie. And then there are who critise in few mins without thinking it's not like they can make a better one.

It's not a race for the oscars here. Please sit down and actually watch the movie and enjoy the little things in life.

The direction and acting are spot on. Great storyline, even though you'd think it's been done before but for me it hit hard and I thoroughly enjoyed this movie.

I'm currently watching this on Netflix and while the base concept it great and the lead actress- the actor playing Bilal is just terrible! I'm not sure what's worse- his over the top hair, the inconsistent British accent that obviously switches to huge Indian accent or the general over acting?

Having said that I'm still enjoying this and hope to see more from this director & writing team and the lead actress cast- she has such a Nargis Fakri vibe but with better acting!! Ha!

On a separate note the look/ feel of this movie with use of natural lighting and soft colour colour grading is a welcome change to the sea of psychedelic Karan Johar colours occupying Bollywood right now.
