Dear Zindagi Movie Review
Alia Bhatt seems to have shed some ponds and the new look suits her twenty-something role in the movies. The rest of Alia is what audiences are used to seeing. The movie is all about Kaira. The rest of the cast exists to fill Kaira’s world and does not contribute much to the movie in any way.
Alia hogs most of the screen time, but does not bore you. You are not really fed up with the character.But this lack of connection toward the character, in spite of maximum screen time, also brings down the movie.
At no time do you feel a bond with Kaira. Nor are you really concerned about her problems, which seem normal for the population she represents. The movie drags during many of her chats with Jug, and Millennials are sure to gloss over what’s being said. The slow pace of the movie and lack of connection with the characters makes this a dull tutorial and group therapy session for a family in the target age group.
Kaira is cured by the end of the movie, but audiences will surely have a headache in this listless story that hardly ever makes you sit up and take interest on what’s happening on the screen. In a single word – Pakau.
Dear Zindagi Crtics Reviews
The early critics reviews are in and they are heaping praise for Alia Bhatt. Her energy and character makes this a feel-good drama that will fill your heart with warmth and give you a peek in a twenty something’s life.
Shubra Gupta at Indian Express agrees that the film has too little substance and lot of words that don’t really mean anything to the audience when she says, “‘Dear Zindagi’ comes off as a film which could have done with less preciousness, and more plot.”
