People who are praising Ja*** **poor's acting, and how had she improved her acting skills, should also remember that this was her double digit attempt in film acting, and again a solo film focusing on her, and only her. But I have to complain that yet it didn't deliver up to the mark.
I was okay with the scenario, the situation in which Mili was stuck, and how a person would have tried her best to come out of it. There are tons of many such movies that had shown such unbearable situations. And mostly, what I look for in them is how the person/persons would come out of it.
Before proceeding further, let me take out some other movie names: Gaslight and Chhapaak. The common factors among these three movies were the woman as lead, story revolving around the woman, a tough and life challenging situation, and almost best side characters. One more common thing among them is the lead actor's unbearable acting, due to which a well crafted movie failed miserably. And this is something that I want to elaborate here.
Mili, as a concept, could have been a tearjerker, in-spite of its flaws. But it turned out totally different.
So one day, Papa **poor thought of making a movie (again) with her daughter. This time he would (again) launch her as a solo star cast with Theatrical side actors. And he launched her through this film.
Here's what I found that totally lagged in her acting:
1. The makeup. And frankly, when you look close enough, you would find that a person still wants to retain original look after 5 hours in -17 degrees. Yup, that's true. The lead actor just don't want to look bad.
2. No homework done. Suppose you have to act in a life threatening situation. You do the best possible homework to mimic like it was actually happening to you. I didn't notice it enough except her shiver and tears. Rest looked fake and over the top.
3. The time when lead actor was stuck in the freezer was a golden time for her to break all barriers and create chemistry between herself and the audience. Do something that audience were glued to the screen, waiting for the next action, and ready for goosebumps. ON the contrary, a little later i started getting bored seeing her. Her face had rigid and cardboard expressions. However, the other actors were just doing their job fine. And that was impressive.
I would never bank upon this lead actor. She is no less than other nepo kids.
Four stars only for some thrill and fine acting by side actors.
