Review from mumbai mirror

In what may have become a stock role for her now, Rani Mukherjee plays a prostitute, Gulab (or Gulabji), in this film. She is in love with her young hero (Ranbir) who has fallen for a demure Indian beauty he'd met only the previous evening.

The young boy calls himself Raj. He had just landed into a strangely fictional, unpopulated whore-house town of blue home dcor, coloured lights, fancy boats, and a delicate bridge. He'd bumped into a lonely girl Sakina (Sonam) he immediately fancied as his own. Gulabji had warned her friend then, "Don't love someone so much that you begin to hate yourself." The advice proved prescient. His love may have been as instant as inexplicable. The girl's denial had a meaning. She said she belonged to someone else, one Imaan (Salman Khan). She said she'd prefer to wait for him.

The night the hero realises he is unlikely to have luck with his lady, he walks up to Rani's Gulabji to sleep with her. She turns him down: "Kaagaz ke phool se kabhi ittar bante dekha hai?" (Ever seen perfume getting extracted from a fake flower?). Earlier, explaining her profession to the hero's old landlady (Zohra Sehgal, a gentle casting touch there), she'd said, "You have an ancestral home, you made a guest-home of it. I had a body; I made a guest-home of that. We're in the same business."

Some more such gems emanate from Gulab; plain banalities from elsewhere. When you sense this lack of lyricism around, it seems odd that the writers could have rested all their poetry into one character. And not even a principal one at that. Gulabji is at best the Chandramukhi to her shaved Das (from no assigned period of course). She appears for a few minutes. She narrates this story of unrequited love. The film has no setting either, much like Bhansali's last (Black).

The director does make it clear this time though, that the silly special effects of a place unknown (and other well-lit wood-work you see) are merely of the narrator's imagination.

The hero sings at a bar called RK. The rain, the black-umbrella and the Chaplin-hat come from the same studio the bar pays its tribute to. So does the hero initially, borrowing in heavy doses mannerisms from his late grandfather, Raj Kapoor.

The similarities end there. This is in every way a faux, affected Broadway or West-End musical shot on 70 mm celluloid: the way the West naively assumes a Bollywood movie is. I am not surprised Sony Pictures, a top Hollywood studio, green-lit this as their entry into Bombay cinema.

Bhansali carefully chose his leading couple from the mom-and-pop store movies in Mumbai get made from. The move made commercial sense. He gives them instead much less scope to prove any skills. Ranbir spends most of his screen-time a self-aware drama-king. Sonam remains forever a dimpled, grinning portrait of awkward reticence that's passed off for feminine charm.

The picture itself then is merely a post-card, where every passionate aspect draws attention to itself, but the protagonists, or their intimate story. The dirt from the carpet blowing in the wind as the leading lady walks through it; the white clock tower that faces the imagined town; the huge bust of Buddha by it…

You notice everything, but care least for the two reasons this was probably intended as a tale of blind, idealistic love. The director is evidently busy proving himself as the master of images. It is much easier to connect with choreography, song or architecture; harder to appreciate them so disjointed or disconnected from an emotional core. Sensations are undone by cinematic ambitions. And you can rarely tell a tingling warmth beneath that grand, cold ornamentation.

Fyodor Dostoevsky may have disapproved. So perhaps Luchino Visconti or Robert Bresson, both directors who have filmed the Soviet writer's short-story (White Nights) before.

Before the publicity-industrial complex from Patna to Piccadilly Circus took over in 2005, Bhansali's Black was largely a moving film. Overrated; yes. But that's a knock on the rating. Saawariya is not even vaguely poignant, touching or weepy. It misses you almost entirely. The review ends here. May the myth prosper!

Saawariya: Self Indulgent Tedium!   

11/9/2007 7:27:14 AM

Film: Saawariya

Director: Sanjay Leela Bhansali

Cast: Ranbir Kapoor, Sonam Kapoor, Rani Mukherji & Salman Khan

Self conscious and self indulgent. That's Saawariya in a nutshell for you. It is the story of a filmmaker who once upon a time had considerable talent. But the twist in the tale comes when he starts having delusions of genius. He believes he can suspend everything - time, logic and general cinematic sense and sensibility, and actually be commended for it. That actually is the story of Sanjay Leela Bhansali. But it has everything to do with why Saawariya is a strange, disconnected and utterly pointless film. Labouring under the tedium of self proclaimed genius and all its affectations.

Saawariya is set in no particular time zone or place. Its characters wander around in a claustrophobic, obviously expensive & overwhelmingly blue set, and speak a strange mish mash of modern day city English and shudh Hindi. The young protagonist is a cheerful tramp who sings in RK bar, and is called Ranbir Raj. Yes, the makers don't obviously believe in subtlety - they make quite sure that you can't miss the fact that the young debutant, Ranbir Kapoor is the Raj Kapoor's grandson! In fact they rub your nose in it till you want to scream that you got the point and they should just get on with it! Anyway, Ranbir Raj meets Sakina - a young Muslim girl who flounces around in backless cholis, carries an umbrella and is waiting for the man of her dreams. Which unfortunately is not Ranbir - so what if he prances around half - naked in a towel? That don't impress her much. Nor us actually for that matter!

Saawariya is based on a short Russian story, White Nights which was set in the 19th century. Sanjay Leela Bhansali takes an essentially sweet and simple love story and drowns it in a chaos of noise and colour. Making a pretentious, stilted hash of it. Forget the strange unreal setting and the wafer thin characterization. Even as a pure love story, Saawariya fails to connect - you feel no empathy for any of the characters. It is hard to imagine that the same film maker ade 'Khamoshi' and 'Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam!'

Now for the burning question - are Ranbir Kapoor and Sonam Kapoor the superstars of tomorrow? On the basis strictly of this film, the answer would have to be no. Ranbir tries very hard but he has to stop making faces and he has to stop wearing his lineage on his sleeve! Sonam Kapoor had to look pretty, giggle and cry throughout the film. She does ok on all three counts, but both these star kids needed a more sensible launch pad. Not one bogged down by bizarre pretension and hype. Not one where the grotesque art direction takes over the film making. And definitely not one where self indulgence takes over sense and sensibility! Saawariya does all of that and more ...

The E NOW WEEKEND rating is two stars, and we are being generous!
