Bombay Velvet - Stylish Movie

More than anything else I was waiting to watch this one as this is one of the most sought out release of Ranbir Kapoor and having see his earlier performances I must say this is his one of his career best performances for sure, despite of his character being a rogue there lies innocence which is bound to make him likeable and his madness and crazy energy from start to finish is something to watch out for. Love the way he says 'Hello I am Johny Balraj, Nice To meet you :) Coming back to the movie this is a thriller the background being the Desi Manhattan my favorite city Mumbai, the dream city the foundation for it. Director Anurag Kashyap has created the film with a right mix of great performances and eye-catching visuals,he should be applauded for this one,love the focus on jazz music. While the first half of the movie builds up the characters and the story,it is in the second half the film's pace picks up with dramatic twists and turns, culminating it into quite an interesting climax. Anushka Sharma looks beautiful and has delivered a good performance apparently this movie was the reason she had got her lips reshaped to portray the role of jazz singer to the hilt, wonder what she should have done if she was to play the role of an opera singer :) Karan Johar is bound to stun you with his acting debut :) He is outstanding in a scene where he goes out of the room to laugh uncontrollably at Balraj's demands,the audience was chuckling along with him me including :) Satyadeep Misra is an actor to watch out for he has delivered a superb performance sometimes in fact outshines Ranbir Kapoor too. Kay Kay Menon is ok and yes actor Maneesh Chaudhary as the pro laborer reporter is quite good Two creative people deserve special mention the movie wouldn't be the same without their superb creativity: 1) Production designer Sonal Sawant for having created the 'Bombay' of the 1960's. The vintage cars, the buses, the trams, the roads, the building spare no efforts in transporting you in a different world altogether back to that era ..loved it. 2) Costume Designer Niharika Bhasin for the authentic costumes and taking care of the detailing so beautifully. This movie is a visual masterpiece from Bollywood and a must watch for all the lovers of art and its likes and of course for Ranbir Kapoor,Anushka Sharma,Karan Johar as well :) Go for it :) Paisa Vasool :)
