Taking place in the mountainvalley of india,who were struck by a tsunamilike flashflood in 2013, we follow the love story between a hindu girl and a muslim man. when the catastrophe comes after a long while it was breathtaking and heartwrenching to follow the happenings and the lost love story.
i do not know much about indian filmindustry, and i do not understand well enough the dynamics of religious counterparts in this part of the world, other than that its merely impossible. the way the love story is build up are near perfect in my opinion, and i felt so with the carachters all the way until the male part of the story where washed away by the floodwaters. at that moment, that i knew would come, i felt utterly sad on behalf of the girl, and the population who lived through and survived this catastrophe.
the acting are typical bollywood style, with 5-6 songs vith vocal lyrics and 1-2 ensemble dance setup were the whole village trows away buckets and spades and threw themselves into the well coreographed dance session,just like theyve done this a million times before, typical and traditional,but nice to watch for a norwegian layman. what i really liked were the filmography, with great visuals of the landscapes and environment were the people lives.its extremely colourfilled all over. the vfx could have been more prescise,but youll have to be a fool not being ragged into the sodoma and gommora like happenings of floodwater evrywhere.
i, the grumpy old man , started to watch this film, my wife joined me pretty quikly, and we both had a breathtaking watch together. so either you hate the bollywoodproducts, this was more than i did expect,and therefore recommends highly.
