Dhobi Ghaat - Arthouse Cinema..worth a watch for Prateik, no interval so you can't leave it half the way ;)

I was so disappointed yesterday when the show of this movie got canceled due to some senseless political curfew but was glad today when I got yesterday's refund as well tickets for today's show :)

I had kept an open mind and I knew this was not a potboiler or a feel good kind of movie as the trailers had made it quite obvious this belonged to the art house category.If Dabaang has been your favorite movie then it is but quite likely that you will not like this movie for sure..

I think the main protagonist of this movie is the city Mumbai itself the city which is always observing, yet non-participating like many other big cities anywhere in the globe.

The story is about four characters who have ended up in Mumbai in search of the missing element of their lives,their lives are unfinished,dissatisfied and for some reason all these four characters get involved in each others lives due to unavoidable circumstances and that is depicted extremely well and gives this story a certain uniqueness.

Among the performances I really thought Prateik Babbar was the best yes despite of presence of Mr.Aamir Khan this guy makes his presence and presence felt in a big way . He is a superb actor someone to watch out for and I think he should make his appearances in the movies more often and yes I really like the girl - Kriti Malhotra she plays the character of Yasmin and I thought was the sweetest among all someone who came to the city with most dreams and aspirations and got disappointed the most.

So if you are looking for timeless entertainment then sorry this movie will disappoint you but if you are a true cinema lover then you should watch this one.
