Farrey

"Farre" is a must-watch movie, especially for children. The film delivers a powerful message about the importance of honesty and integrity, teaching kids that cheating is never the right path. The storyline is engaging and well-crafted, keeping the audience invested from start to finish.

One of the standout aspects of "Farre" is the incredible performance by the young actors. Their natural talent brings depth and authenticity to the characters, making their journeys relatable and inspiring. The new actresses in the film also deliver commendable performances, adding freshness and energy to the movie.

Emotionally, "Farre" hits all the right notes. It beautifully balances moments of humor, drama, and sentiment, making it a wholesome experience for viewers of all ages. Despite being a 2023 release, it feels like this gem hasn't received the attention it truly deserves.

In summary, "Farre" is an excellent movie with a strong moral lesson, stellar performances, and a captivating story. It's definitely worth watching, and I highly recommend it for families looking for a meaningful and entertaining film.

Farrey is the story of Niyati and Akash, two toppers from a poor background. Niyati is living with her foster parents and the foster kids while Akash works as a part time delivery boy. When they get admission at the no.1 college in the city, their world collides with another, the richer kind. What starts of as helping fellow classmates to cheat and pass the term exams, gets bigger as the two get engulfed in the vicious circle, with the offer of big money. Will these kids get back to the world they belong or get torn apart by the new world they got stuck in forms rest of the story.

The beauty of Farrey lies in it's writing and how grounded the scenes remain to reality. With the couple of songs initially feel deliberately added as it is a Bollywood film, I really couldn't find anything else to complain about. The first half goes on smoothly with establishing all the key characters. It is all mostly fun here with the cheating scenes and kids being kids till the interval block. All the heavy duty scenes are left for the second half which is where the film truly wins.

Alizeh as Niyati comes up with a solid performance which can be called as the best debut of the year so far. Another stupendous performance is from Sahil Mehta as Akash, especially in the final act. Ronit Roy stands out and lends superb support, his scenes leave a lasting impact. The supporting cast involving the rich kids are good too in their respective roles though only Zeyn Shaw as Prateek and Prasanna Bisht as Chhavi get better written characters. Arbaaz Khan in his cameo is first rate, for a dad putting unfair pressure on his daughter, it is the smile of his that haunts.

Getting back to the second half, the heavy drama involved here is well handled by the actors and kudos to the director to getting this performance out of each of them. That fine line between rich and poor is much clear here where rich always get away and it is the poor who needs to look for a second chance. It is not how dark the characters get to behave but the stark realization the main lead gets to have while she confesses to her father which comes out perfectly. I am going with an higher writing solely for this take.

Better watch original thai movie 'Bad genuious' thank remake. Bollywood never gives credit to orginal movie while making remake. They ditto copy pasted the story and scenes also.

Casted Alizeh nepo kid, niece of Salman Khan, another example of nepotism. If you already watched 'bad genuious' you won't be liking this remake. Ok OK remake. Ending is not properly directed. Everything was just ok ok.

Acting of side characters playing role of students wasn't that good except prasana bist playing role 'chhavi'. Ending seems ended abruptly. Ending could have directed.

One time entertaining movie. Injustice to character 'Akshay'. It could have build better.

While the film attempts to capture the essene of the original Thai masterpiece, it falls short in almost every aspect. The narrative feels rushed and underdeveloped, failing to delve into the depths of the characters' motivations and the complexities of the cheating scheme. The adrenaline-fuelled sequences of cheating escapades, which were so captivating in the original film, lack the same intensity and suspense in "Farrey".

Alizeh Agnihotri's character transformation from a reluctant participant to an integral part of the cheating scheme feels unearned, and the audience struggles to connect with her on an emotional level. The stark contrast between Niyati's privileged classmates and her own struggles as an orphan feels forced and fails to resonate with the audience.

Overall, "Farrey" is a disappointing remake that fails to capture the magic of its Thai predecessor. The rushed narrative, underdeveloped characters, and the lack of suspense make it a forgettable cinematic experience. For those seeking a truly captivating tale of academic fraud and moral dilemmas the original Thai film " Bad Genius" remains the superior choice.

One of the finest movies of 2023. A strong content oriented highly underrated movie. Story revolves around how very privileged students take undue advantage of underprivileged children to make their career. What starts as an average movie takes unexpected turns. Definitely not preachy but story is thought inducing. Alizeh Agnihotri is fantastic! Must watch for younger crowd particularly adolescent n older crowd. Available in Zee5. My ratings 7/10!
