Can I watch this film right now?😭

I just love the trailer to bits!!!😳 Its perfect...I think they have stuck to the book to the T, which is good!
Arjun doesn't look Krrish Malhotra, he IS Krrish Malhotra...I don't think even Chetan could have imagined anyone else playing him better than Arjun! He looks perfect for the part! ❤️And Alia looks gorgeous and thankfully not like a 12 year old dressed to look like a 24 year old! Plus, she actually looks like a South-Indian girl.
Amrita and Revathy are spot-on!
10/10 for the trailer...this is a FDFS film for me!👍🏼
PS: There might be a reason why the trailer gives out the entire story...the books was a best-seller in India, the cache audience for the film will also the same set of people who have either read the book or atleast know the story by now! So no big deal about keeping it a secret in the trailer!

This!! Arjun is Krish! Ditto! He is perfect 😳
I am happy with the trailer because I loved the book...this is the only CB book I liked..rest were all meh.
They have exactly used some scenes from the book...so it increases my excitement ⭐️

OKish. In the book,the girl is supposed to be super brainy feisty one but here Alia is just another party girl types. Arjun was ok.


But I loved the rest of the cast. Thank God for Amrita Singh and not taking Kiron Kher. N Thank god for an authentic Tamilian actress Revathi instead of getting some random person to play OTT Tamilian. Liked the dads too. I think the Tamilian dad used to act in one of the colors show. He was too good in that.


Other than that this brings back my terrifying memories of being called a gori madrasi in Delhi for many years. Ppl clubbed all southies as Madrasis. Cringe.

Actually no, Deja Vu!
Krrish assumes Ananya to be a bookish types, but she is not like that at all. As in she is brainy enough to get into IIM, but she is also the club-hopping, extrovert kinds! Remember the scene when Krrish takes a transfer to Chennai and Ananya takes him to a club in the afternoon, telling him that in a place as conservative as Chennai, clubs operate during day time instead of night!😆Krrish is the introvert, quiet types (the anti-thesis of the typial Punjabi guy) and she is the vivacious, extrover kinds (the anti-thesis of a typical brainiac tam-brahm!)
I can emphathise with the last part...being a South-Indian myself and questioned all my life by my North-Indian friends and their parents on how come I am not 'Kaali'?😕😆 That was all I could do to stop myself from bashing their heads with a club!

@bold...ofcourse...dont be silly masquerade...i love reading ur views...

i agree that the music is blah, and perhaps there seem to be some scenes lost in translation especially the funny ones...

i disagree with the arjun and aalia though...i cant seem to fault them coz they are playing the characters they way they are supposed to (assuming the characters are the same as written in the book)...and aalia dosent look or seem childish to me and seems like the bold, independent girl shes meant to be...and krrish's laziness and confusion gels well with the way arjun is playing it...so far atleast...





heyy smarie 😃 ..I m sorry if my comment came across as rude but I just had to make sure there wont be any arguments..didnt mean to target those who liked the trailer...but u know the whole forum dynamics has changed so much now 😆 (last time I actively posted were in Lootera review topics and there was this whole lot of negativity around Ranveer,...wheras now the entire scene changed and all of those shifted to Ranbir 😆) so m not sure anymore how to express my views or whether I wud offend ppl aise hi 😆

hmm u maybe right...lost in translation,could be the case...Arjun has done a decent job expressing the confusion of the character but kind of failed to retain my attention through out the trailer with the narrative...Alia seems immature for this role...maybe its me...like yes she is bubbly,spontaneous but the fire is missing...I mean the exuberant,feisty vibe is missing for me...,and when I see the interactions b/w the 2 characters I feel their reactions and behavior towards each other are not in sync with each other...like the rhythm is missing...maybe its cuz of the way trailer is edited...My view might change when I actually watch the whole movie..for now dissatisfied.

Is it so. Meh, I can't even remember the story, most of his books are like an hours read and quick toss out of the window. Such a bad writer.😆😆


Lol true. The best part of Aishwarya winning the Miss World contest was she put Mangalore on map and I will forever be indebted for that cos now when I used to say Mangalore ppl had some idea about it. 😆😆

He is a bad writer, that I agree!😆 And his books are full of glaring editorial / grammatical mistakes...I found out nearly 50 grammatial and spelling mistakes in 3 Mistakes of My life!Confused (That is actually his editor's fault, not really the writer's!)
But they are entertaining reads and its obvious that even when he started writing his books, he always wrote them with the objective of turning them into films in his mind...that is why his writing is so low-brow...cause in any case they have to be dumbed down once they are turned into bollywood films!
Personally speaking, I loved reading 2 States...it is without doubt a very funny book, but ofcourse, its no classic!
PS: Mangalorean's are gorgeous to look at...they are genetically blessed with good looks!
