Size is the hero in size zero!!

A movie suitable to my size :), (un-size zero), this is what I felt when I started watching the movie yesterday night. I felt very happy when I saw Anushka Shetty look like me, fat and cute in the movie.

But she is tall which I am not.

The story line is simple, a fat girl (Sweety) who has reached a "marriagable" age. Her mother tries to get her marriage fixed but her weight becomes a problem and she is rejected. She is worried that her daughter might not get married at all. Which is when she meets Abhi through an alliance. She likes him instantly but since she knows what would happen next, she asks him to reject the match. But that was not the case with Abhi, he may have liked her. They meet again and become friends. 

Since the girl's marriage was not getting fixed and Abhi gets closer to another girl who is definitely better shaped, Sweety decides to join the slimming program. Another friend of hers who is competing for some beauty contest is also a participant of the program. During the course of the weight loss program, this friend gets ill and is admitted to the hospital. The reason is because of some improper content in the "slimming" juice that the program provides, the kidneys get spoilt. Sweety decides to protest against such programs which hide the reality behind the shakes and juices. She is fully supported by Abhi. How they go about this process is what forms the rest of the story.

Many complained that the second half of the movie is sluggish. But as a viewer I did not get bored at all. I thoroughly enjoyed the movie. The movie completely lay on Anushka's shoulders and she carried it with ease. She was well supported by Arya, I found their chemistry cute. The character of Anushka's mother is a strong one and was well played by Urvashi. The rest of the characters played their role well. Adivi Sesh looked superb in the movie.

Music is not that great.

Overall a nice feel good movie. Can watch it once.

My rating for the movie would be: 3/5.

Oh..what a tamasha!! (Movie review)

Continuing with my last post. 

The story is about a boy who lives himself in a place called Corsica. This is where he meets a girl. The two spend the rest of the days together having fun, but without making any advances towards each other (though they wanted to). Time flies by, and the girl comes to the boy's city for work and finds the boy in a totally different avatar. She does not understand and tries to make some sense out of the boy and his life. Does the boy understand what she wanted to convey and what happens next forms the rest of the story.

I actually had not seen the tagline of the movie before. I saw it only during the interval of the movie. Why always the same story? This is the tagline and is so true. The first half is yes, boring. I thought, what a waste of such talented people. But the post interval part is the strength of the movie. It is very powerful with amazing performances by Ranbir and Deepika. Imtiaz Ali truly brings out the best out of Ranbir in every movie they do together. This was proven again in Tamasha, after Rockstar. 

Music is also good, I have already reviewed it before :). It fits the storyline beautifully. It actually flows with the movie.

A special mention about Piyush Mishra is really important. Because he plays a pivotal role in the boy's life. Why and how, one must watch the movie for it.

I believe every person will definitely relate to the movie. So I urge everyone to go ahead and watch the movie.  

My rating for the movie will be: 4.75 / 5.
