Break Ke Baad Review
Aaliya is a crazy girl who seems to be hell bent on messing up a good thing, for no reason at all. She has the best boyfriend -- the ever-understanding, sensitive and so very dependable Gulati. Yet, you can understand why she wants to fly off into unknown territory, chasing unnecessary dreams, yearning for useless adventure and talking on an on about spurious spaces. As for Gulati, he's typical too with his laid back acceptance of what life has to offer, even if it means slogging as a glorified clerk in his dad's office while all he wants to do is cook and serve. There's something so endearing about his desire to be the `manjha' (string) to Aaliya's soaring kite stance. And the fact that Imran pitches his performance at a very very downplayed level makes Gulati's non-demanding, dependable guy act even more effective. As for Deepika, well her Aaliya is relatively effortless too, despite the fact that it's a mercurial, illogical, irrational ekdum flighty character. Her climactic act seems to be the best performance in her entire career: completely spontaneous, crazy and nice.
The movie does have a terribly sluggish middle and there are places where the drama seems to be heading nowhere, but the witty banter between the protagonists does fill in the lacunae to some measure. The dialogues are smart and the conversation funny, specially when Deepika insists on calling herself Shah Rukh khan and oscillates between Gulati, Julati and Gelatto when it comes to referring to her boyfriend. And if that's not enough, he even becomes Sunita in certain sequences. Lillette Dubey as the adventurous aunt also adds to the sparkle with her homespun asides on love and marriage.
Break Ke Baad movie is the other flavour of romance.
