A visit to the restroom, however, may be the only effect it has, since the devastation is too dimly lit to be visually impressive or emotionally evocative, while our hero seems to be able to breathe underwater. For the last twenty minutes, the screen floods and the sound of the torrent is incessant enough to strain the bladder. I say it feels accidental because of the way the film usually trades in Sooraj Barjatya tropes: a couple sip from the same glass in lieu of a kiss, a suitor is beaten up by privileged bad guys, parents commit violent emotional blackmail, and so on. Here, the boy who never speaks up for his rights begins to hold court in front of a council of elders, directly after having kissed the talkative girl as if she literally gave him her tongue. Should it therefore simply be called an anquin?Ībhishek’s films feature moments of poetry that seem accidental.
So slow is the film that I found myself musing on questions about his apparatus, a wicker chair converted into a rucksack: basically, a palanquin for those who travel solo.
He’s a porter who carts people up and down the mountain on a stool strapped to his back. The boy, Mansoor, is played by Sushant Singh Rajput, a reliably solid actor making his most in a badly written film, looking suitably overwhelmed at the possibility of romance. She may not have shone, but she seems interestingly atypical. She is fine when silent and sad, and there is an interesting awkwardness to her from time to time. The actors around her are markedly natural - Pooja Gor, playing her elder sister, simply looks stern throughout, but she’s so damn real - while Sara is playacting. Talking nineteen to the dozen is tricky, though, and Sara isn’t spontaneous enough. Her character Mandakini is exaggeratedly feisty, the sort often played by Parineeti Chopra and Anushka Sharma, and, in another time, by her own eternally plucky mother, Amrita Singh. However will this child escape granddaddy issues?Īs first-timers go, Sara Ali Khan is okay. She stars opposite Sushant Singh Rajput - a leading man famous for playing on-screen cricket - who plays a character named Mansoor Khan, rather like her legendary India-captaining grandfather. Sara Ali Khan, daughter to Amrita Singh and Saif Ali Khan, makes her debut in Abhishek Kapoor’s wet weepie Kedarnath. Kedarnath Movie Review | Kedarnath is a pointless, entirely forgettable film, but some may remember the girl fondly - which may well be the film’s only task.
