Pyar ke Side Effects
Finally, i got to see one of the most hyped of the low budget movies this season. The biggest hype-factor for the movie was Mallika Sherwat in a supposedly deglamourised girl-next-door role.I guess the hypes are not always correct. Mallika Sherawat, as an actress, disappointes yet again.
Deglam? I dont think so(for those who flock to watch her movies, dont worry, the lip-locks are here too)
Girl-next-door? umm, well I dont know, I havent had any girl next door to me, and especially none in the neighbourhood to have run away from her marriage.
Mallika Sherawat apart, this movie is a watchable affair with Rahul Bose and Ranvir Shorey giving delightful performances. The story deals with the life of a bachelor who is in love and he goes onto explain to the audience the side effect of being in this "wonderful" relation, inclusive of all commitment-phobias that the males are supposed to suffer from.
Rahul Bose, as the Sutradhaar of the movie is brilliant in patches but maintains his panache consistently.
Ranvir Shorey, once again after Mixed Doubles, shows his great natural talent at comedy and I am sure he has a good career ahead of him.
Overall, watch it for the occasional laughter if you have two hours to spare. All the males who have been in a relationship are sure to find something or the other quite close to reality.
What to watch out for: Ranvir Shorey
What to ignore: Mallika Sherawat
My Rating: 5.5/10
