MANMARZIYAN is way ahead of kuch kuch hota hai and hum dil de chuke sanam.

MANMARZIYAN REVIEW.

STORY:

Manmarziyan is new age generation musical triangle love story between a rebel woman RUMI,a careless DJ sandzz AKA Vicky & responsible banker Robbie.

POSITIVES:

Well the main USB of this movie is its music...Yes music is the lead actor of this movie.Music will remind you your love and it will try to make you feel low and high all the time.At this time Bollywood is believing in remakes and some cringy songs but at this time @ameet_trivedi has come up with a killer music album.Grey Vala shade song comes up in starting and perfectly shows the love between Rumi and Vicky.F for Fyaar,Dhayanchand songs will attract you a lot.Screenplay is pretty straight and engaging. It will hook you from beginning till the end.@anuragkashyap10 is a king of dark cinema and this time he came out of his comfort zone and directed this movie with such a perfection.@vickykaushal09 is so charming and energetic as DJ SANDZZ.His body language, tone of his voice is totally like a Punjabi guy.@tapseepannu as Rumi is something which is very stereotypes in Indian cinema.She has done a great job as loyal lover.@bachchan as Robbie is too good.His character is smart,sweet and innocent but from inside he is vulnerable.Movie perfectly shows that how love can destroy someone and how it can destroy yourself as well. MANMARZIYAN is all about the marzi everyone do in their relationship.

NEGATIVES:

2 hour 37 minutes running time will test your patience level.Last conversation between tapsee and abhishek is very long and shallow

VERDICT:

MANMARZIYAN is way ahead of hum dil de chuke sanam,kuch kuch hota hai.Its a a kind of movie which takes the traditional love triangle to new level of expression.

OVERALL:

4/5

REPEAT VALUE:

YES.
