Review of 96

96 (II) (2018)
7/10
Overrated love story
4 February 2022
Everyone calls this film as emotional, heart touching and heartbreaking etc. But I couldn't feel that. I will tell you why?

In the film, we come to know that ram and jaanu couldn't unite because of some miscommunication. Yes, i felt sad and realized how important communication is sometimes. But, after a few scenes, ram reveals to jaanu that after their seperation, he stalked her until she got married. That ruined my whole experience coz if he had the guts to stalk, then he could have mustered a little courage to confess his love to her face to face. Since he didn't do that, he deserved to live alone in life. This is what you say if you dont have courage to say someone how much you love them then don't expect us to sympathize with you.

Another issue, I felt was the lack of chemistry between vjs and Trisha. I am not saying they must hug and kiss to show chemistry but like one we have with best friends. Here ram often freaks out in front of jaanu. Also the movie runs on a slow pace.

On the whole, 96 fails to touch my heart.
