Another long term wish came true....This movie has been evading me,ever since i wanted to watch this movie...finally,i procured the movie without much difiiculty,and i played the movie rite away!!!....
I ve always been attracted by Desi movies made in English....but i never really got to see many(like dere are a lot)...from wat i heard Mr and Mrs Iyer by rahul bos e and the hyderabad blues were rated the best ones...having seen the first one...i really was looking fwd to this one..this one didnt disappoint even by a bit....
The story now..
Varun(Nagesh Kukunoor) is returning back to his hometown(HYD) from the states after a long period of 12 yrs....he is 28 yrs old and his parents want him to get married,as he s ageing....one of his frnds(harish) is married and the other one(Sanjeev) is abut to get married...but Varun doesnt seem to be really interested about the Indian way of marraiges,and also starts to sound like a sceptic who was born to find faults wid the indian system..it starts from the no of calories in food to choosin a girl 2 marry...(i guess ppl who live away from home,get affected by this syndrome,when going back home...)
He accompanies Sanjeev who is on the lookout for his life partner,to the traditional bride seeing day..(only god knows if it has a word in english!!)
there he gets really curious about a female,who comes and serves tea and happens to be a close frnd of the bride and a doctor,by profession....
Sanjeev gets married and after that Varun is introduced to that female named Ashwini,only to find out that she is an all out hater of americanisation....slowly they fall in love woth each other and caste takes the form of the villain keeping the m from gettin married,meanwhile his mom has many a unsuccesful effort to pin him up wid some girl or other...so as u might guess,they eventualy get married but how..that s for u to see...
i personaly felt the climax was really weak and lacked in logic in comparison with the other parts of the movie,which were really a reflection of the intricacies of the Indian lyf,and wat Americanization can do to u...
It was an excellent experience ,a diff one perhaps...i kno a bucketfull of movies which used the same concept of "the operator AMERICANIZATION on INDIAN CULTURE CURRY"...wat those movie didnt potray or show well,this movie has explicitly pointed out,important one being
the adjective "Working in a America" is no longer enough to woo girls in India,for they r more bonded to culture than anything else...
KUDOS NAGESH KUKONOOR..
