So far, all slurp worthy.īut Johar is unable to go the extra mile it in the other department, leaving you wanting both more and less: less of the incessant yak-yak (you want to tell these impeccably-styled people to stop and draw breath and then speak, so that they, and we, can absorb the moment they’ve created), less of the non-stop background music (if it is real, you don’t have to underline it), less of the frantic reaching for the next old Bollywood classic line or song (because too many of these, and ‘Ae Dil’ is stuffed with these references, makes your brand new film feel same old) and more silence (the most effective parts of the film happen when it’s quiet), and more fresh plot points. You can’t get more atmospheric cities than London and Paris, ohhh. You can’t get better-looking actors than Ranbir Kapoor-Aishwarya Rai Bachchan-Anushka Sharma-Fawad Khan. What it does offer is brilliance in the name of Ranbir and Anushka, some awe-inspiring shots of Aishwarya and Fawad and a very beautiful canvas as it is shot at exotic locales of London and Paris.Īe Dil Hai Mushkil scores high on the first count. Aishwarya as Saba is what you imagine Aishwarya to be - sexy, smart, independent and someone with a great sense of self-importance.Īe Dil Hai Mushkil offers little in terms of story and fails to get the audience empathise or feel for the characters and events in the movie. Fawad Khan and SRK have very little screenspace to even comment on their performances, but you get to enjoy that sexy smile and the star persona respectively in the small bits they have. Several sequences of Ranbir are par excellence - the ones where he is either alone onscreen or with Anushka.Īnushka, on the other hand is impressive with her new avatar as the woman who knows exactly what she wants from each of her relationships. The chemistry is very organic and authentic - the one thing in the movie that feels real and will certainly remind you of your best friends. It is amazing watching their friendly banter and the fun they have.
Johar has given major screenspace to Ranbir and Anushka and they do not disappoint.
