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.

It's romantic movie, and we have definitely seen this kind of film in the past. Well all Indian romantic movies are similar. But what I liked in this movie is the very natural acting by new comer Sonia Rathee. Her hindi and dialogue delivery style is quite natural. Harshavardhan Rane did pretty well too so all the supporting cast.

Set in London suburbs, the spoken Hindi/Urdu mixed with Brit slang was perfect. Otherwise I have watched many bollywood movies, where the movie filmed in England with actors speaking American English.

I haven't found a single boring scene and completed this movie in Single Sitting rather than watching it over few days (as I do most of the bollywood movies).

It's refreshing, feel good movie. Watch it definitely.

This movie is cute and makes you smile and laugh at many instances! Acting from the main and supporting cast is brilliant. I am glad I ignored the average ratings and negative reviews and watched this rom-com. Some of the scenes halt the flow in the movie but like a river over rocks, this movie manages to reach the ocean eventually!

This movie is no A-list bumper (like the one in my title) but goes on to prove yet again that star tags will never triumph over good acting and storyline.

Harshvardhan Rane after Sanam Teri Kasam, manages to charm the audience yet again. Sonia Rathee's 'Tara' is a scene-stealer.

I really enjoyed watching this movie. Such a light hearted romcom. Great chemistry between Rane and Rathee. I think Harshvardhan is an underrated actor, he is so good, he deserves more recognition. I was impressed with the British accent, he did it so well. Movies like this should get more recognition and screen time. I watched it on Netflix, but hadn't heard of it as I hadn't seen any trailers. Very well directed and filmed in London. Great entertainment and decent storyline with more to it other than just the love story element. I'll definately watch the movie again. Oh I do love a good bollywood romcom!!
