#Saiyaaraās best quality just might be that it restores a cinematic language that felt lost for quite a while in Bollywood. Right from the beginning when #Dhun plays and it cuts between #AhaanPandey singing and #AneetPadda writing to the extremely sharp editing at the end (1/6)
Furthermore, the movie has no frustrating/cringe side plots, no overemphasis on melodrama (while being quite dramatic) and no weird color grading/over-saturation that makes it look artificial, etc. Mohit Suri definitely knew the assignment and he knocked it out of the park. (5/6)
some of the best music in #bollywood is being created these days compared to any time during its historyā¦
did anyone else feel what they felt when they walked out of movies like #K3G #KalHoNaaHo #VeerZara etc after watching #Saiyaara?? not saying that itās as good (although itās pretty great) but there was something I felt today that I havenāt felt from Bollywood in a long timeee
Big fan of #AamirKhan and his work and I am actually enjoying all his interviews recently and his willingness to be candid. But the one thing that I donāt get is him not watching movies of his contemporaries. He hasnāt watched #Swades, #Pathaan or #Jawan.
And thatās just what I have gleaned from interviews - no idea how many more movies he hasnāt seen. To be in the movie making business & not consume the latest content could honestly be hurting him more than he realizes. Contrast that w/ Tom Cruise who watches literally everything
#ShahidKapoor is technically a better dancer than Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff, etc
lord bobby from #Animal didnāt disappoint one bit
he didnāt have as long of a role as #RanbirKapoor or the actors in the movie but was such a standout!
you could sense the intensity, the rage, the pain
more of him in #AnimalPark pls šš¼
I mean I always knew it was going to be hot but #SherKhulGaye from #Fighter looks absolutely scorchinā š„µš„µš„µ
#HrithikRoshan & #DeepikaPadukone make a simple step look so hot šÆ
Canāt wait for the full track from @VishalDadlani & @ShekharRavjiani!
Wow! #OMaahi from #Dunki feels like an instant classic ā¤ļø
šµ: #Pritam has made so many romantic songs but he is able to find another unique rhythmic structure here
š: Irshad Kamilās lyrics truly make the song stand out - the wordplay halfway through the song is especially beautiful!
š¤: #ArijitSingh is reliably solid & sounds soulful as ever
Video feels a little reminiscent of Zaalima but is beautiful nonetheless and SRKās lip syncing is perfect šš½
NEW SONG ADDICTION ALERT šØ
Pehle Bhi Main from #Animal is simply gorgeous & addictive š
#VishalMishra sings this song w/ so much angst & longing that it refuses to leave your memory š¤
@rajshekharisās lyrics are simple but beautiful š
#RanbirKapoor & #TriptiiDimri are the perfect foil for this song because their romance on screen has as much heft as the song!
#Fighter first look is bold, exciting & dramatic šÆ
#HrithikRoshan & #DeepikaPadukone along w/ Anil Kapoor look ready to take on this new adventure
Extremely impressed with the VFX, production design and overall feel of the teaser
In Sid Anand we trust! Commentš your thoughts
#Dunki trailer isā¦underwhelming?
#ShahRukhKhanās de-aging has been distracting from the 1st drop but why is his dialogue delivery so forced? For an actor of his caliber, he seems to be struggling here.
But even more egregious is the lack of humor, warmth & heart that Rajkumar Hirani is known for?
Sloppy stuff but hopeful that the movie has all those elements intact!
