EXCLUSIVE REVIEW BY HANUMANT BHANSALI
Sanjay Leela Bhansali, apart from his unique style of film making is also making a mark by avoiding happy endings for his flicks.
The film has no story to tell, and behaves as hopeless platform for the emerging talents like Ranbir Kapoor and Sonam Kapoor.Probably the only person who will be happy after Saawariya will be Ram Gopal Varma, who will get some stiff competition from the underperformed Sanjay Leela Bhansali. For me, its not Om Shanti Om Vs Saawariya anymore, rather it is Ram Gopal Varma Ki Aag Vs Saawariya.
Saawariya lacks content. The plot is deprived of a storyline which stands out as a sore thumb in the visualistic image of the film. The film represents a musical drama than a motion picture. Dark backlight, monotned thematic colour of green and blue, long curtains, traditional wardrobes, and ten songs fill up the frames of Saawariya.
Director Sanjay Leela Bhansali has lost out on making a Bollywood adaptation of Dostoyevsky’s “White Nights”, which stood out for its Russian feel and rawness. The story begins with a husky narration from Gulab (Rani Mukherjee), a sex worker toiling her way around a red light area. Gulab gets instantly obsessed with Raj (Ranbir Kapoor), a newcomer in that area. Gulab finds an instant liking for Raj but keeps it only till friendship.
Raj finds a place in everyone’s heart in that street, except for a place to stay. Gulab comes to his rescue and finds him a place in Lollipop’s (Zohra Sehgal) house, an old lady who misses her son.
