5 Reasons to go for "Haider"
Vishal Bharadwaj always raises expectations because of his dealing with a script and churning it into a masterpiece. Though, with Haider the major problem was that "Hamlet" by none other than Shakespeare has been an epic piece of literature which undoubtedly is way more better than the screen representation. In spite of the lose plot, Bharadwaj manages to portray the plight of the kashmir origin with tremendous acting skills by each and every actor of the movie.
So, check out five reasons that would help you go watch the movie.
1. The beauty of Kashmir.
UNBELIEVABLE. With some mind boggling scenic views and tremendous picturisation, we see "the heaven on earth" is definitely the right phrase for kashmir. Every single shot makes you want to be there and live it's beauty. The sad part is that we cannot really go there. So why not at least see it live through Bharadwaj's camera. You'd be in an awe. :')
2. The acting.
The moment every character speaks a dialogue be it shraddha, menon, irrfan khan (tremendous performance), tabbu, and the man himself, Shahid kapoor you are left gaping. The amount of effort is clearly exhibited. One of the best cast and crew and their performances makes it worth watching.
3. The background music and language use.
If you're a literature fan, you would be awed by the excellent use of the Urdu language, the marvelous "ghazals" and the "shayaris" and the background score.
At times, it feels so soothing just to hear those lines perfectly timed by Bharadwaj and this is one more place where he scores the brownie points. So, clap and hoot at the quirky dialogues and the romantic quotes. :D
4. The funny elements.
Yes, the movie does have some hilarious moments that make it a little lighter and quite bearable for a person expecting songs and lots of love drama.
It has provided us with yet another word "chutzpa" which would soon be spoken in our everyday routine :P . Also, The Salman Khan lovers would be happy by the extreme limits of his publicity in the entire movie in one scene or the other making it funnier. So, sing along the lovely salman numbers and have light moments between the intense scenario.
5. The social message.
By the selection of a very sensitive condition of kashmir, Bharadwaj has clearly drawn attention of the mainstream audience too. Hamlet portrayed in the valley's of kashmir and the mortifying conditions of the common man leaves behind a soft spot in our hearts and makes us aware of the terrible situations of the people residing in the state. Both his portrayal of Shakespearean drama and the conditions of the Indian society prove their significance in a fantastic manner.
Thus, Bharadwaj though having a lose plot manages to create a piece that would be loved by a target audience.
The actors and the screenplay are the two major advantages of the movie that make it worth watching. So, if you plan to go for a movie this weekend. Pick up Haider and have a intense mindset. :)
