Tamasha.
So before I begin with the
review, let me narrate you a little story…
Once upon a time, there was a
Partner A who was crazy, energetic and a romantic lover. This partner A falls
in love with a certain Partner B who is as energetic,crazy and equally
romantic.
After a few months of seeing
each other, they both get married soon after.
A few years later…
Partner A= Crazy, energetic
and a romantic lover.
Partner B= Lazy, boring and
not so romantic.
Still a few years later…
Partner A= Crazy, energetic
and a romantic lover.
Partner B= Lazy, boring and
not so romantic.
This goes on for a long time
until…
WAIT.
You want to know what happens
after that, don’t you?
Now what if I tell you, that
even you are included in this story?
You are the Partner A over
here.
So as you already know that the love life with your
partner B isn’t going as good as expected. In fact you are hating it completely because the person whom you initially dated, isn’t even one bit same as the person
whom you got married to. You can’t dump
your Partner B like that, because true love is about sticking till the end
right? But again, this hopeless Partner B isn’t what you originally signed up
for, did you?
So what do you do? It’s your
story. You decide the end, keep that in your mind while I rant about the movie
review.
The movie talks about a Bipolar disorder
that our protagonist Ved (Ranbir Kapoor) is suffering from. Firstly we are introduced
to the character of Ved, subtly. Then as the movie progresses we realise that
this Ved is kind of like us. Further, we are fooled into believing that this
Ved represents our personality in a way (Of course we brush that thought away as
quickly as it enters our mind). All of that happens with us because, the movie
deals with a topic that has been brought up quite often by many Bollywood
movies- ‘BE YOURSELF’. The other movies so far have talked majorly about why
you should be yourself and not let the world affect you (The Prevention). Tamasha
talks about what can happen if you DON’T be yourself and let the world
affect you in all ways (The after-effects). Tara (Deepika Padukone) although is
the heroine, she kind of plays a supporting role (in literal sense too, as
she is shown supporting Ranbir. *LOL*). But she has pulled off her role quite well, can't deny that. Ranbir stole the show, completely. He makes you feel that no one could have pulled off the role as easily as he did. Therein lies his greatness- that makes him undoubtedly a superstar.The reason why I am talking about the
movie so much is because it deals with human psychology effortlessly, and the
director and screenplay writer deserve a ‘hatts off’ for portraying it with
precision. What’s beautiful about the movie is that, although it has tackled a
common question, it has given a fantastically brilliant answer to it which so
far has not been given by any other movie of the same kind.
The reason why i didn't delve into the technicalities of the movie this time, is because Tamasha is much more than that and the movie forced me pay homage only to the story. Oh that reminds me, did you get your ending to
the story which I narrated to you sometime back? Haha, good if you did. But if you
didn’t, I will suggest you to watch the movie. Maybe you will get your answer.
*winks*
I will give this film- 4.5
star
*CAUTION*
The trailer of the movie is deceiving. Because
if you think that the movie is going to be about fun, life, love and adventure
(like Yeh jawaani hai deewani) then you are mistaken. The movie deals with a
much deeper psychological topic which is literally going to touch your soul, if
you allow it to. This movie is going to stay with you for long though, and is
going to impact you for sure.
#MustWatch.
Fin.
