Dhobi Ghat





Director: Kiran Rao
Date & cinema: 29th January 2010, TGV Pyramid
Actors: Aamir Khan,introducing Prateik,Monica Dogra and Kriti Malhotra



The storyline, acting, cinematography, background songs, the monologue and the silence between scenes are so dark, intense and the debut director who is also Aamir's wife successfully captured the essence of loneliness of all the characters beautifully without having to tell too much details about each of their motive coming to a new city to start their life all over again. As the movie goes on the audience figured out about that themselves, yes its a bit slow but all for the right reasons. Must give credit to all the newcomers especially my favourite ; it has to be Monica as she played her character so naturally and with such elaan, Prateik truly proved he has the Smita Patil's genes while for Kriti she projects her pain and emotions through her sad eyes and voice as she was the voice throughout this movie. Kudos to all of them , who would believe this wa their first work alongside the perfectionist Khan himself. Well for Aamir, what else can I say that haven't been said as he is the best with his craft. Simply the right Hindi movie (glad it was my first) for me to kickstart this new year as it filled this empty and intense moment of my life perfectly, I would recommend this movie to all movie goers who can stand watching a quality movie who doesn't bother to create some scenes just to make the audience feels good when they come out from the cinema. It tells from an honest perspective of view of how hard can struggling be especially for someone who wants to live their dream in this mean world.


Good movies makes me feel good :)
