Dawaat E Ishq and Khoobsrat will compete this week and will end the heroine dominated season as the last few weeks have seen films where the heroine has been the main face of the film. All of the films may not have been heroine centric but it was the actresses providing the face value from Rani Mukherjee in Mardaani to Priyanka Chopra in Mary Kom to Deepika Padukone in Finding Fanny and this week will see a clash between a Sonam Kapoor and Parineeti Chopra starrer.



The results have not been impressive so far with only Mardaani having some appreciation but a very low opening. Mary Kom got a fair start but could not consolidate while Finding Fanny was worse of the lot. Daawat E Ishq and Khoobsurat will be hoping to do better


Daawat E Ishq should lead as it has more universal appeal than Khoobsurat which seems mainly for the premium multiplexes. The Khoobsorat in 1980 which this film is based did well in 4-5 cities but as the budget was low that was enough for recovery. So remaking a film that did not work too well initially with a weaker cast may not be the best idea. Daawat E Ishq could have some potential though will be on word of mouth and remains to be seen if it can become that elusive hit film which is evaded the industry since Singham Return

Khoobsurat Movie Review - Sonam Kapoor impresses with her act

in Movie Reviews September 19, 2014 0

Plot-

Milli (Sonam Kapoor) is a sport physiotherapist working in Shah Rukh Khan's KKR IPL team who gets a call from a Royal Family of Rathores from a small town in India Sambhalgarh to cure the King of the Palace Shekhar Rathore (Aamir Raza). The family of Rathore's abides by rules and regulation made by the woman of the house Nirmala Rathore (Ratna Pathak). The living environment at the palace is completely new for Milli as she belongs to a typical full of life Punjabi Family. At the Palace, Milli meets the prince of the house Vikram Rathore (Fawad Khan) who is exactly opposite of what Milli is. As Milli begins to spend time at the palace, she begins to bring about a change in the thinking of the people and makes them realize the importance of enjoying life? Will Milli be able to change the rules and regulations of the palace?

Direction-

Khoobsurat directed by Shashanka Ghosh is the official remake of 1980's classic by the same name. Many times in the past we have seen cult classics not getting the desired treatment when they have been remade. Khoobsurat suffers from the same problem and the blame should go to the immature direction by Shashanka Ghosh. The writing as well as the treatment for many scenes goes too over the at times and the humor looks forced at many instances. However, the director does gives us some genuinely funny scenes but they are too few and far.

Music-

The lesser we talk about the music of the film, the better it is. Music of Khoobsurat by Sneha Khanwalkar is disappointing. Adding to the bad music are the weird lyrics which make the things even worse. The only ray of good hope in the album is Naina which is being composed by Armaan Malik.

Technical Aspects-

Khoobsurat is a 2 hour 10 minutes film which has been edited by Bakul Matiyani. Despite being abstained to a length little more than 2 hour, the film looks to have been little stretched. The film has been packaged very well despite being made in a limited budget. The sets and well as the locales captured are a treat to watch on the big screen. The dialogues by Juhi Chaturvedi are funny at a few instances and have been written smartly.

Performances-

Khoobsurat belongs to the official Disney girl of Bollywood Sonam Kapoor. The actress makes the character of Milli look very believable and makes it her own. She is one of the few things which make you sit throughout the film. She enlightens the screen with her presence and the charming smile. Watch out for her emotional outburst in front of Shekhar Rathore in middle of the first half. She is effortless in the scene where she expresses her feelings to Vikram in the second half. Fawad Khan makes his debut in Bollywood with Khoobsurat however the character of Vikram Rathore does not give him much scope to show his acting talent. The actor however is impressive in the climax when he has a faceoff with Kirron Kher. The actor does not emote much in the film but however that is what the character demanded. Kirron Kher as Sonam Kapoor's mother Manju is hilarious in her role of a loud Punjabi Mother. The role was tailor made for the actress and she does not disappoint with her performance in the film. Ratna Pathak as the Queen of Palace does her part well and reminds us for her role in Sarabhai V/s Sarabhai. The rest of the supporting cast is decent.

Verdict-

Overall, Khoobsurat is neither very Khoobsurat, Nor very Baadsurat. The film manages to evoke some genuinely funny moments especially in the first half but they begin to dry up as and when the film progresses. The movie starts off as a film which gives us a feeling of being the happiest film of the year, however the incidents eventually become too over the top. The performances by Sonam Kapoor, Kirron Kher and Ratna Pathak are good and manage to keep us glued onto the screen for most of the time.

Watch Khoobsurat for Sonam Kapoor, Glamour and some genuinely funny dialogues.

Khoobsurat movie review: Sonam Kapoor and Fawad Khan share a Khoobsurat' chemistry, but the movie is not worth a dekko
