Shaandaar (2015)
LOVED IT!! Exceeded expectations after reading some bad reviews
After reading such horrific reviews I thought i would watch this movie and decide for myself if it was actually as bad as people were saying it was.
I tend to love rom coms (Hollywood ones more than Bollywood) so i was more than pleasantly surprised when Shaandaar exceeded my expectations and contained everything and more than a usual rom com would.
Yes it is whacky, some of the dialogues are very corny, and some of the characters and scenes are ridiculously out of the ordinary, but at the end of the day, it is a COMEDY and a comedy aims to make us laugh, which I think this movie did very well. It also has some very heartwarming scenes; Alia's scenes with her father were a delight, Shahid and Alia's chemistry was fab and I feel that these three main characters were very well written and developed.
The casting in this movie was wonderful, especially in the case of Alia, who played her role of a quirky insomniac to perfection!
I would definitely recommend this movie to anyone who enjoys a quirky comedy with some heart touching scenes involving family, love and relationships. I would say anyone who enjoyed the likes of Housefull, Partner, Chennai Express, Jab We Met, Mere Brother ki Dulhan, Ready, Tere Naal Love Ho Gaya, and other similar movies would definitely enjoy this!
