Tanu weds Manu


Tanu weds Manu – is a once watch.

Watched it this Saturday, and though it’s not a four starrer by any measures, it strikes the right chords.
The casting , for one, if perfect. Kangna ranaut – as the rebel; Madhavan- as the not so Yash Chopraish NRI;
Deepak Dobriyal – as the lovable pappi bhaiya; and the Punjabi- bhiari couple- the director skillfully toches the lives of  Bihari- UP- Punjabi, and presents a nice little tale.

What is most noticeable is with the simplicity Mannu bhaiya explains the loneliness of an NRI ;living all by himself. Would go some distance in breaking the ever so cherished amerikan dream. Maybe that was not the intension- but it comes across nicely.

Ajay Devgan did it in HDDCS with flair, its not easy to be so Maryada Purushottam; ready to be the catalyst for the union of  your love with her love.

Another remarkable line was when the girl asks Deepak Dobriyal`Apka naam kya hai?` and he says kaise bataoo `Deke ya Bolke` He would have loved the former.I have loved his performance in Omkara, and thought that he was wasted in Delhi 6. He returns with a sweet performance here.

The girl playing Payal- has spark about her,  the one makes Bihari girls tempting as they are.

Good movie overall.

This might be the first review I am posting here, watch out this space for more.
