Not sure if you agree, for me I felt that Shahid's character did not get any impact/dramatic scenes. I mean he did have lots of scope and lots of scenes to show his talent. But I felt there needed to be least 2-3 more scenes to properly capture his angst and pain. Even in that scene where he cries with his friend, it wasnt impactful (the way it was shot)...I think what I am saying is that the character needed a few more punch scenes.....sometimes I found the scenes/dialogues to be very surface level.
Like if you look at the movie Sanju, I can think of a couple of scenes where Ranbir has a proper breakdown in which you just feel for wholeheartedly.
Its not so much Shahid's issue - but moreso the director/dialogue/screenplay. Needed more of an impactful punch.
heyyy totally I agree with you!
@underline - I felt the same during that scene! It was the scene where Shiva asks if he would marry his sister?? It was a good heartfelt scene that I felt was done with haste.. it should've been done with some tehraav (excuse the spelling), not in the theatrical or overdramatic type, but a better balanced direction casting a light on sensitive side of deeply troubled/depressed/damaged Kabir who is touched by his friend's gesture and rightly capturing the emotional moment/bonding between him and his friend.. His character also would have gotten a broader range if only his sensitive vulnerable side was dwelled upon more in a few other scenes, including the love scenes.. These aren't big issues with the film, but like you said, would've been impactful and perhaps wouldn't leave us feeling like it was missing something.. Thinking about this actually is making me want to watch the film again.
But jo bhi kiya, Shahid was amazing.. and now that you mentioned I too can see how it's the director's setback and not Shahid.. he was perfect.. man, I hope to see Shahid playing more dark characters.. ❤️😃
