Do aur Do Pyaar Movie Review

Star Cast: Vidya Balan, Pratik Gandhi, Ileana DCruz, Sendhil Ramamurthy.Director: Shirsha Guha Thakurta.

Movie Synopsis:DO AUR DO PYAAR is the story of a dysfunctional couple. Kavya Ganeshan (Vidya Balan) has been married to Aniruddh Banerjee (Pratik Gandhi) for 12 years. They dated for 3 years after which they eloped and got hitched. In the last few years, they drifted apart and stopped communicating. A lonely Kavya gets attracted to an American-based photographer of Indian origin, Vikram (Sendhil Ramamurthy). Meanwhile, Aniruddh begins an affair with an upcoming actress, Nora (Ileana DCruz). Both are making plans with their respective partners and plan to get divorced soon. One day, Kavya gets a call informing her that her grandfather has passed away. She decides to fly down to Ooty, where her family resides. Aniruddh also joins them. Their visit adds to the tension in the Ganeshan family, especially because of her father Venkat (Thalaivasal Vijay) who hasn't forgiven them for eloping. In this tense and sombre situation, they get the time and opportunity to communicate and once again fall for each other. What happens next forms the rest of the film.

Suprotim Sengupta and Eisha Chopra's screenplay is realistic with ample doses of humour and drama. The writing, however, gets stretched in the second half. The dialogues are conversational and enhance the entertainment quotient.

Shirsha Guha Thakurta's direction is simple. Though it's adapted from a foreign film, the director has Indianized the film beautifully. The four main characters and their flaws and strengths are etched out in a nuanced and real manner. She also succeeds in mirroring the realities and complexities of relationships and marriages. On the flipside, the second half is lengthy and also dragging. The crucial pre-climax dialogue goes on and on and should have been curtailed for a better impact. Moreover, the focus is on the married couple while the other two get a raw deal.

On the whole, DO AUR DO PYAAR works due to the relatable plot and electrifying chemistry between Vidya Balan and Pratik Gandhi. At the box office, it'll need acceptance from the target audience, that is, the urban elite, to excel.
