HONEYMOON TRAVELS PVT. LTD. (HTPL) is Reema Kagti’s debut vehicle, but there’s clarity in her vision. It’s a difficult task to narrate six stories in 12 reels/2 hours and Kagti does it quite well.
HTPL holds your interest at most times because of its unpredictable plotline. The stories seem straight out of life and the characters are identifiable. Yet, there are times when you feel that the debutante could’ve given a truly satisfying culmination to a few stories.
Excel Entertainment’s ‘Honeymoon Travels Pvt. Ltd.’ is about newly married couples on a package honeymoon tour to Goa. The film is woven around six couples, a guide, a driver and a handyman riding in a bus from Bombay to Goa. Juxtaposed into the hectic four-day schedule in the film, is a radio show called “Pyaar ke Lamhe”. The jockey plays the role of an omniscient narrator and discusses individual characters, revealing secrets about them and their past.
