Dobaaraa

I had skipped this movie because of the bad reviews here on IMBd earlier, and I was gonna skip it again but because of Anuran Kashap and not too many other Hindi options I gave the movie a try.

Secondly I have not watched Mirage (2018 film) - so if you have seen that movie than I can't tell if you will like this movie or not.

Finally the movie - I was blown away by how good the movie was.

The main twist which comes in the first half of the movie is something we never see in any Hindi movie. For most of the movie you are on edge of your seat.

Last 30 mins could have been better that's why I will give 8.5/10

I would definitely recommend this movie!

Reason for all the bad reviews: Indian far right Hindus do not like Tapasse Pannu, and also Anuran, as they do not walk the line set up by their overlords.

So watch the movie if you have Netflix and thank me later.

I don't know what is wrong with so many negative reviews... it's actually a beautifully scripted movie for the average desi audience.

The concept was adapted from one of my all-time favourite Hollywood movies - "Frequency" (and later, the Spanish movie, "Mirage")

But I honestly did admire how it was adapted in the Bollywood style. And Taapsee being in it made it more watchable 'coz I'm quite a fan :)

Go slow, keep an open mind and make sense of it... the movie does require brains - it's not just a random entertainment/masala film.

And yes, if you question it from a quantum relativity point of view, theoretically, there are numerous possibilities of an experience like this occurring in the real world.

The beauty of this movie is that it practically engrosses you with the plot by simply plucking a hypothesis from a plausibility in real-world space-time physics.

Enjoy if you're a nerd and an even bigger Bollywood fan :)

Most of us all will definitely judge by the numeric IMDb rating it has.

But it's because the biased rating that users have input because of Boycott and all.

However the movie speaks for itself. It is a good watch, great direction and amazing screenplay.

Anyone now watching this on Netflix will surely enjoy it.

This is clearly not a justice to any art being judged before it is experienced.

Watch it now for Taapsee Pannu.

And not to forget Anurag Kashyap Direction.

This movie is worth watching, no doubt.

It could've recognized more in case it wasn't released in Theater at the first place.

I did not know that this was based on another movie but standalone this movie rocks. What a plot and really gripping. I thoroughly enjoyed it. The other reviews which all of them say rating 1 or 2 are completely biased. Maybe these are right wing trolls who do not know anything about the movie. I have not seen this MIRAGE movie on which this is based so I really loved it.

Maybe what India lacs is this kind of storyline which is simple and complicated. Even if this is a copy of this MIRAGE movie - I still loved this rendition. I wish more such stories are also written in India. But the combo of director and actor is fairly good.

I would have almost given this movie a miss after I saw the IMDB rating but for the fact that I noted Anurag Kashyap is its director. So decided to give it a try and it turned out very gripping. It is not your regular run of the mill movie. So I guess it is meant for a discerning audience who can appreciate time travel and parallel universe. Do not let these words scare you - this movie is a slickly made whodunit - worth checking during the Diwali long weekend. Good actors too including Saswat Chatterjee.

It is poor ratings which stop the making of intelligent Indian movies . And then the same people crib about not enough good movies being made. And since Badla was made, am enjoying these remakes of Spanish movies. Directors / Producers are introducing us to good stories which we may normally have not watched.
