Let the Heart Beat

Look of film is rich as their characters but they behave like a typical middle class family. I could have accepted it with few ones but every one!!!! Then what was the need to show them upper class!? Cruise thing was just stuffed to add some grandeur in film and it adds but nothing to add any entertainment or any good use of it in film plot except in boring way in climax. Writer and director had taken audiences for granted as if they belong to the family, whose story is being told. Lots of character confuse audience to understand the movie. There are very few emotional scenes and that too are mixed with some quirky humour so nothing comes to audience very clearly. There are few good emotional scenes, precisely shot actually, Neelam Mehara eating cake while crying, Anil Kapoor grabs Rahul Bose neck. Love track doesn't have any scene to mention. Its narrative style from the dog perspective doesn't appeal. Film bores and length makes it more boring. Performance wise Anil Kapoor and Shefali Shah as Neelam Mehra are very good. Rest are just OK. Music also bores as the lyrics.

Initially, I was hesitant to watch this movie as this movie did not do that well commercially(compared to other Zoya Akhtar movies). However,I must say I was very impressed with the way the movie was put together and executed. DDD is a must watch for everybody regardless of what social status or financial category a person belongs to. Agreed, the drama takes place in a 'rich' people setting. But the family problems depicted in the movie are common across all classes in the country. So although it feels like they are rich people problems, they are actually not. The performance of all the actors is superb especially Anil Kapoor and Shefali. The portrayal of Anil Kapoor as a shrewd, stubborn businessman is very genuine and so is Shefali's struggle to cope with unhappiness in marriage and maintaining social status. It is refreshing to watch Ranveer Singh doing something different than playing the usual macho/rowdy roles. Priyanka Chopra and Anushka Sharma are good as usual. Overall the film is extremely pleasant to watch with no unwanted melodrama or item songs. It is a very sensible approach to depicting problems within a family that are often not spoken about but need to be discussed.And I must say Zoya handled it pretty well!

If you were thinking about going to the theater to watch this movie in the hopes that it will be anything close to the brilliance of ZNMD then please don't. DDD is nothing but an extremely long and boring attempt at bringing together many stars in hopes that public will want to visit any creation that Zoya Akhtar throws at them. It was unbearable sitting in the theater and watching idealistic nonsense being spewed out by these stars for entire duration of the movie. The only saving grace was comedy in bits and pieces by Ranveer Singh which at least gave you a chance to smile for about 5 minutes throughout the movie. In my opinion, skip this atrocity if you can. You can thank me later.

Dear Zoya Akhtar, Dil Dhadakne Do is the sort of movie that makes you want to throw a bomb at the screen. There are so many embarrassing scenes. I just sit in the movie hall and slowly died due to the torture inflicted upon my senses. The movie made me want to drink a hundred beers. When it comes to human relationships, you provide the insight of Sooraj Bharjathya. I am not kidding. You have nothing interesting or original to say. So you inserted this really phony and trite feminist scene where Farhan Akhtar tears into Rahul Bose's character. It is the sort of scene that gives feminism a bad name. The acting is awful, it is like these actors just turned up on the sets without any preparation. It is almost like they are all playing themselves - imagine tolerating a goofy bulked up moron like Ranveer Singh or an uptight fool like Anushka Sharma for nearly 3 hours. Even Woody Allen's or Richard Curtis' worst films would be a hundred times better than this piece of crap. Best Regards, Pimpin. (1/10)

To start off with, Zoya's last movie was Zindagi na milegi dobaara, which I liked down to bits and pieces and had rated it with 10. Coming to Dil Dhadakne do, something vital seems to be missing, maybe ZNMD's charm? I'll try not to compare it with ZNMD. Ranveer singh is the Saviour of this movie. His character well carved and he does justice to what is given to him. Priyanka Chopra is good as Ayesha and her chemistry with her On-screen brother is superb. Anil Kapoor hasn't lost his charm yet. He is perfectly casted. But, still, just for fun, too young to play a father's role? Shefali Shah as Neelam Mehra compliments Anil Kapoor. As a classy and super elite mother, she does quite well. Anushka Sharma has a "cameo" kind of a role. Nothing much for her. Farhan Akhtar is good as always in a special appearance. Rahul Bose gets into the character easily and does a fine job. Special mention to Aamir Khan and Pluto Mehra. *Watch the movie* The story lags and drags till intermission. There are some genuine laughs throughout the movie but major part of the movie is dull. Zoya Akhtar, unfortunately, wasn't able to wand out a magical spell which she did on ZNMD. Music is quite average except "Gallan Goodiyan" which is a 'One shot' song. An average One time watch if you go in without any Expectations.
