Saawariya

Well initially let me name you some of ‘his’ movies, Hum Dil Chuke Sanam, Devdas and Black. Now he is back with a new star-cast Ranbir Kapoor and Sonam Kapoor and the film is ‘Saawariya’. If you are a diehard fan of the above three movies, you might have guessed his name. He is Sanjay Leela Bhansali. Ranbir Kapoor is the son of famous Bollywood couple Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Singh, and Sonam is the daughter of the evergreen actor Anil Kapoor.The hype which surrounded Saawariya is well understood with the new star-cast being introduced to audience on November 09.

Raj (Ranbir Kapoor) is a charming young man and a lead singer of a club. His presence is liked by all. Sakina (Sonam Kapoor) is his lady counterpart in this movie whom he met one night. As expected, he falls in love with her. In the second night of their meeting, he wanted to make his love clear to Sakina. Contrary to the usual Bollywood love saga, Saawariya is offering you a surprise by making a different twist in the love story between Raj and Sakina. Hence Raj comes to know that Sakina is waiting for her first-love, Imaan, played by Salman Khan, who has left her with a promise to come back one day. Now, this is the only suspense in the movie. Will Sakina forget her first love and accept the new offer? Will Raj succeed in fulfilling his dream life with Sakina?

Sonam and Ranbir Kapoor in Saawariya

The movie shots are not visually appealing. Throughout the movie, we see the shots set in the dark background. The slow music, though stunning, gives a dragging effect to the movie. The music tracks such Mashaallah, yoon Shabnami and Saawariya stand out.

As a newcomer Ranbir Kapoor has proved his great talent and personality, offering a new hero to the next-gen Bollywood. He is not just a good-looking guy but he is a good actor and dancer as well. He immortalized the role he played in the movie. Undoubtedly you will see more of him in the coming years. Sonam kapoor is in the same pace with Ranbir; she has put forth a groundbreaking performance as debutante and delivered her best too. She has got a charming smile, and Bhansali won in tuning it with the rhythm of the movie. Rani Mukherjee played the role of a prostitute, similar to that she played in the recent movie Laga Chunari Mein Daag, but the only difference is that this time she is playing the role of a voluntary prostitute. Salman Khan has got an effective entry in the movie, but that is again a guest appearance and a tragic disappointment to the muscle-man fans.

Sonam Kapoor in Saawariya

The efforts of the superstars and their superb acts, however, cannot save the movie from collapse. Saawariya will be known as one of the biggest failures of Sanjay Leela Bhansali. There is nothing in the movie to entertain an average movie watcher, apart from the role performed by some superstars and a few songs that are pleasing just to the ears.
