Cast: Aditya Roy and Shraddha Kapoor Director: Mohit Suri
The story begins with a drunkard singer (Aditya Roy) and a local-bar singer (Shraddha Kapoor) meeting at the bar where he heard her singing for the first time. In order to make her known, he requests her to visit the city and try her luck.
I must say that the story is beautifully directed by Mohit Suri. Well, he did the best he could to a story line that gave me migraines at so many points. The review may give away the tale, so read at your own risk.
I wonder if the women are so naive that she gave up the only job she had just because some drunk stranger said she sings well and she should come to the city. She left the job knowing that she is the sole breadwinner of the family. Later, she accepted his apology for not responding just like that, talk about being naive. There are so many other things that I would like to point out, but the most crucial point at which the story is based is worth discussing. Aditya has the drinking problem and, of course, male ego so fragile, that he got insecure. He thought that she cannot succeed if he stays with her - so he decided to jump off the bridge. Yes. He committed suicide without thinking that she wanted him more than her career. She never wanted the fame, she wanted him; but the self-centered person decided to quit his life than to leave alcohol for her.
To be honest, I also wanted to jump off the bridge when I saw all this happening. But you know what saved me and the film from drowning? The Songs. Every single song of this movie is heart-touching. It would be rude of me to mention one and leave the others. It is the sole album in many years, where not only all the songs are original but decent and nice too.
