Ritesh-007's rating
I'm not against anyone else's review, and I respect that everyone has their own perspective when it comes to movies. However, after watching this film, I couldn't help but feel that most of the reviews floating around seem overly hyped and, frankly, a little too positive to be genuine. It's a Yash Raj movie, so expectations were naturally high, but in my honest opinion, it doesn't quite live up to the buzz.
Let me start by saying that I went into the movie with an open mind. Yash Raj Films has given us some unforgettable classics, and their name alone usually guarantees a certain level of quality. That said, just having a big banner and a great cast doesn't automatically make a movie exceptional. For me, this one fell short in many areas, especially when it comes to the story.
The plot felt like something we've seen before-a romantic drama that brings nothing new to the table. In fact, the whole vibe reminded me a lot of Aashiqui-the same old tragic love story template, only with a slightly happier twist at the end. There's no harm in using familiar themes if they're executed well, but here, the narrative lacked depth. The emotions didn't hit as hard as they should have, and the dialogues were pretty average. Honestly, I was waiting for that one moment that would make me go, "Wow, this is why everyone is praising it," but it never came.
What surprised me even more is how every review I've seen calls this a "masterpiece" or "one of the best romantic films in recent times." That feels exaggerated. Sure, the cinematography was beautiful, the music was decent, and the lead actors delivered solid performances. But if we're talking about storytelling-the backbone of any film-I found it lacking originality. Everything felt predictable, from the first meeting to the conflict to the eventual resolution.
Now, I completely understand that everyone has different tastes. What might seem dull and repetitive to me could be deeply moving for someone else. And that's okay. Movies are subjective experiences, and that's what makes art beautiful. However, I can't shake the feeling that some of these glowing reviews are either influenced by the big production house backing the movie or are part of an intentional push to create hype. It's something we've seen happen before-manufactured buzz to draw crowds to the theater.
I also want to be fair. The movie does have its positives. Like I mentioned earlier, the visuals are stunning, and some of the songs are genuinely good. If you're someone who just wants a light romantic film with glamorous sets and beautiful faces, you might enjoy it more than I did. But if you go in expecting something groundbreaking or emotionally intense, you might walk out feeling a bit underwhelmed.
At the end of the day, this is just my personal opinion. I could be completely wrong, and maybe I'm missing something that others connected with deeply. I'm sharing this not to discourage anyone from watching the film, but to add a different perspective to the conversation. Reviews, whether positive or negative, should always reflect honesty, and this is mine.
So, if you're planning to watch it, go with an open mind. Don't get carried away by the hype-experience it for yourself and decide. Who knows, you might end up loving it! For me, though, it's just an average film that doesn't justify the overwhelming praise it's getting online.
Again, this is just my thought. It may not be right, but I felt like sharing.
