Manmarziyaan movie review: The Vicky-Taapsee starrer is an exhausting romantic drama
Manmarziyaan movie review: Taapsee Pannu stands out, trying to work past the clichéd role.
By Shubhra Gupta
Cast: Abhishek Bachchan, Vicky Kaushal, Taapsee Pannu
Director: Anurag Kashyap
Movie rating: 2 stars
Anurag Kashyap has created a new word. For decades, Bollywood has been using ‘pyaar-vyaar’ in stories and songs, most often used along with ‘dil-vil’. If it is a love story, then it is a compendium of ‘dil-vil-pyaar-vyaar’, most often used with ‘main kya jaanoo re’?
In Manmarziyaan, his pair of young lovers are conflicted about ‘pyaar’, but there are no confusions when it comes to ‘fyaar’, a short-cut denoting a tumble-among-the-sheets.
