Disappointing

Warning: Spoilers
Suleimani Keeda was a film which was recommended to me by someone who loved TVF Pitchers, I was told that Naveen Kasturia is a good actor and since I am also a writer, i will be able to relate to the bros in suleimani keeda. Suleimani keeda looks promising from the outside with a feel of Mumbai, relationships and a look at the life of two struggling writers. Well, looking into the detail, Naveen's character looked promising at first, when you look at him, he is the one who reads books, recites poetry and looks like someone who loves poetry. Now the flaw. If Naveen is in love with poetry, you expect him to recite it in a clearer tone, he recites the poetry in a very immature manner. His love for writing is not at all visible in the film. Why would a struggling writer who is getting an opportunity of a lifetime is not interested in writing, instead of doing his work, he is more inclined to meet the girl. The friend( i am sorry, i forgot his name) is not a writer. He has no perspective and he looks more like a TV writer rather than a film writer. Watching tarkovsky or trauffat will not make you a writer. Now the delhi connection- They don't look like delhiites, they don't talk like delhiites and none of them had the attitude of a delhiite (I know this, because I am from Delhi). We hardly see the change over of naveen's character, He wanted to see the world and become the writer he wanted to be, but the trigger point was too weak. The fight between the two was contrived. It was useless, the writer only wanted them to part ways so that Naveen can become a novel writer and the friend is still a screen writer. The direction was much better than the story at hand, Chemistry between the Bros was missing. Over all it was a good effort, but not a movie. I am surprised to see so many good comments, maybe TVF is at it, but the movie is a fail.
