'Days of Tafree' written and directed by Krishnadev Yagnik is a movie which takes us back to the good old college days and makes us want to relive those golden days.It is an official remake of the Gujarati film 'Chello Divas'. The story revolves around the lives of seven friends in the last year of their college.It comes with the tag line 'In class or out class'.
Among the seven friends,Vicky (Ansh Bagri) is a carefree,funny,and happy go lucky guy who finds great pleasure in annoying the people around him and also happens to be suffering with verbal diarrhoea. Nikhil (Yash Soni) plays the role of a sweet,responsible and smart guy who is deeply in love with Pooja (Nimisha Mehta). Suresh is the dope guy who is always made fun of for his looks and the the fact that he hasn't gotten himself a girl since the past 3 years. He is considered as the loser.Daljeet aka Dhulla is the macho guy who never lies or smiles and talks very occasionally but his presence lightens up the atmosphere.
The movie is not very appealing.It lacks depth and a strong plot.The humor is dry and flat.The scene between Pooja and Nikhil on the 'Guns and roses' day where he tries to propose to her and the 'Coffee scene' where a girl breaks up with her boyfriend over ordering a coffee are impractical and pointless.The dialogues were below par.You might think that the music makes up for the dull plot but that doesn't not happen either. There is nothing to keep the viewer hooked on and you attimes end up forgetting the names of the characters.The first half of the movie is chucklesome but the second half feels dragged making the movie too lengthy and boring.
However the cinematography is applaudable and so are the performances of the newbies. The romance between Nikhil and Pooja is beyond cute and could be one of the reasons for one to be hooked on to the movie. Dulha,the serious guy takes the audience by surprise with his unusual love towards Isha(Anuradha Mukharjee)
Overall,the movie cannot be termed as a 'must watch'.It is a timepass movie and one need not bother spending their time and money on it and is certainly not a family movie. With the release of a blockbuster like 'Pink' last week by Rashmi Sharma Productions the standards one has before entering the hall are extremely high but 'Days of Tafree' fails to impress us and is a big disappointment.
