"Haseen Dilruba (हसीन दिलरुबा)"
Watched Hindi movie "Haseen Dilruba (हसीन दिलरुबा)". This movie is directed by Vinil Mathew. Produced by Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar and others. Written by by Kanika Dhillon. Music Amit Trivedi. Cinematography Jaya Krishna Gummadi. It stars Tapasee Pannu, Vikrant Massey, Harshavardhan Rane, Aditya Stivastava. The film runs for 2 hours 16 minutes and was released on 2nd July 2021. I watched the movie on Netflix with Aditi on 3rd July 2021.
A blast. Vikrant is dead. Flashback. Tapasee is married to Vikrant, but they are like chalk and cheese. Things are not going well when Vikrant's cousin, Harshavardhan, comes to stay with them. Sparks fly. Did she kill Vikrant or didn't she?
The scenes between them, immediately after their marriage, are nothing short of amateurish. There is a lot of space for improvement. Movie is slowish. Action is lacking. Palpable tension keeps the viewers interested. In such a movie the end is supposed to shock the viewers. But end of the movie is very predictable. Hardly any surprise!
Tapasee looks stunning, especially in sarees. She acts decently. Not one of her better performances. Vikrant impresses and the character suits him. Harshavardhan plays the macho but lacks acting skills. Aditya has been playing inspector for decades, so it comes to him naturally.
Locations are good. Village in UP is brought to life. Cinematography is good. Couldn't remember any song after movie.
In short: Decent plot. Acceptable acting. Directorial shortcomings. Plain handling of story. Predictable end.
Not a must watch.
