Everyone is talking about Barfi… It was delicious, it was
spectacular, mesmerizing and all synonymous adjectives would surely fit for
this movie. Indeed, it was hilarious, especially some of the nicely executed
Charlie Chaplin acts by Ranbir Kapoor. Needless to say, Ranbir Kapoor’s
expressions and his acting prowess stole the whole show. Nonetheless, Priyanka
Chopra at some places overpowered Ranbir Kapoor with her incredible acting of a
mentally challenged girl. Certainly, she proved herself once again after ‘Fashion’
and ‘7 Khoon Maaf’. Her words, even not spoken were widely understood by
everyone. Her presentation and acting skills of an autistic child would not
have been done better than this.
It’s full on two and half hours of masti and a gripping yet
exceptional love story. Throughout the movie, Ranbir’s pranks left the audience
in laughing grip. A love story between deaf and mute guy & an autistic girl
is surely unique in its own ways. It has
flaws too as I felt at some places story get entangled between present and past
but in the end, the puzzle gets solved efficiently and beautifully.
Surely, it will not be wise to explain the whole plot here.
However, I wish to mention that it’s an intriguing love story of deaf and mute
guy- Murphy (read Barfi), who is crazy, fun loving and strongly believes in
living in ‘present’. His masti has no
extent and so does his liveliness. Hs talks never required words, which makes
his conversation even more interesting. His eyes and hands do the all talking
and most importantly, he is unaffected by everything except Love. He surely is not normal boy but certainly
can give a tough competition to any normal intelligent person. He was an
epitome of love, which weaves his most interesting love story with an autistic
girl- Jhilmil Chatterjee, who is unaware of her super rich status and desperate
need of love. She is simple, cute and lives in her own world.
It is only Barfi
effect that I am only mentioning about Ranbeer and Priyanka. However, it
will be unjustified to not to mention about Ilena D’cruz, who is the narrator
and first love- interest of Ranbeer in this movie.
Kudos! to Anurag Basu for his marvelous direction and
pritam’s music in the movie. Also, lyrics and script left me spell bound. First
half is entertaining witty as Ranbeer Kapoor unveiled his amusing and
mysterious acts. Nonetheless, second half becomes more captivating as it shows
mature side of same mischievous Ranbeer Kapoor along with certainly, more of
Priyanka Chopra.
In the end, It’s all and all, MUST watch movie. I personally
enjoyed every bit of it. . Let alone be the controversy of stealing or taking
inspiration regarding scenes or music of Barfi...
