1-PLOT-MADHAV JHA IS A BIHARI BOY WHO TAKES ADMISSION IN A DELHI COLLEGE THROUGH SPORTS QUOTA.HE FALLS IN LOVE WITH RIYA SOMANI.RIYA IS VERY RICH.RIYA ALSO FALLS IN LOVE WITH MADHAV BUT HAS TO MARRY THE GUY HIS FATHER HAS CHOSED.HENCE SHE LEAVES MADHAV.MADHAV THEN RETURNS TO HIS VILLAGE AND DEVOTES ALL THE TIME IN THE DEVELOPMET OF HIS SCHOOL IN VILLAGE AND TRIES TO LEARN ENGLISH TO IMPRESS BILL GATES WHO WILL VISIT INDIA.THEY BOTH MEET BUT RIYA IS NOW A DIVORCEE AND HENCE MADHAV’S MOTHER DENIES HIM TO MARRY RIYA.THEY GEY SEPERATED AGAIN.WHETHER THEY MEET IN THE END OR NOT IS THE MAIN QUESTION.THE FILM IS VERY LONG AND HENCE FEELS BORING AFTER THE INTERVAL.I DONT UNDERSTAND WHAT "HALF GIRLFRIEND’ MEANS.DO COMMENT AND TELL, E IF YOU UNDERSTOOD AND THIS IS THE WEAKEST AND THE MOST IDIOTIC PART OF THE MOVIE.THIS IS THE WEAKEST PLOT AND THE INCURSION OF BILL GATES SEEMS OVER-EXAGGERATED HENCE DULL.I WILL GIVE 1/5 TO PLOT
2-PERFORMANCE-ARJUN KAPOOR PLAYS A STUDENT AND HE DOES NOT LOOK LIKE A STUDENT AT ALL.AND YES I WANT TO ASK THE DIRECTOR OF THIS FILM TO PLEASE TELL ME A COLLEGE WHERE STUDENTS ARE DRESSED LIKE CELEBRITIES.THE COSTUME WORK IS DONE IN AN EXTREMELY BAD WAY.SHRADDHA KAPOOR HAS ACTED WELL.BUT THE BEST ACTING WAS OF MADHAV’S FRIEND WHOSE CHARECTER IS PLAYED BY T.V. ACTOR VIKRANT MASSEY.OVERALL I WILL GIVE 3/5 HERE
3-MUSIC-THE MUSIC IS THE STRENGHT OF THIS FILM.ALL THE SONGS ARE VERY GOOD AND ARE ALREADY A BIG HIT ON YOUTUBE SPECIALLY BAARISH SONG HAS CROSSED OVER 45 MILLION VIEWS ON YOUTUBE WHICH IS A BIG RECORD.I WILL GIVE 5/5 STARS HERE.
4-DIRECTION AND EDITING-DIRECTION IS DONE BY MOHIT SURI WHO HAS PREVIOUSLY DIRECTED AASHIQUI 2.HIS DIRECTION IS GOOD BUT THE PROBLEM IS EDITING.EDITING IS DONE BY DEVENDRA MURDESHWAR.THE FILM COULD HAVE BEEN MADE ATLEAST 30-40 MINUTES SHORTER.THE ARRANGEMENT OF SCENES AFTER THE INTERVAL COULD HAVE BEEN MADE BETTER.I WILL GO WITH 2/5 HERE.
5-SHOULD YOU WATCH IT-NO.THE FILM’S PLOT IS VERY WEAK AND REPITITIVE.I WOULD SUGGEST YOU TO SAVE YOUR PRECIOUS MONEY AND TIME BY NOT WATCHING THIS MOVIE.
THAT’S ALL FOR MY REVIEW.KEEP READING AND WRITING ON MOUTHSHUT.COM
