Dev D- A DARING DEPICTION

Here’s what i would call… crass and crude!

This is what I thought when I saw this movie.Trust me,it surely talks a lot about our Indian movies coming of age…don’t know ,many might as well disagree.Can’t believe here’s a movie which comes and goes without any hoopla created by our political parties and nari sansthans 

Gone are the days when candyfloss movies adorned our silver screens.The film is outrageous and original to say the least.The 21st century Dev das is no loser for sure.No offences,but the original Devdas was a bigtime loser.What would you call an obsessive lover who immerses himself in alcohol and does not have the guts to marry his childhood sweetheart??!!!

The urban Dev D is a today’s man,commits follies,meets the proverbial chandramukhi and goes on with his life.There is nothing like self- suffering.What I liked about this character is that he is no boring,moroseful and does not wallow in self pity.
The real essence of the movie are the 2 girls.The modern Paro and Chandramukhi.The modern Paro is absolutely spirited.Gives a shit to the guy who dumps her and moves on.Chandarmukhi is garish and does all the bold scenes with such élan that it makes one think….is this for real????The language used throughout the span of the movie is lethal and so raw.It does not make you squirm because somewhere you know its true.

Good going!!!
