I hadn't seen a single movie in last one month. One of my friend, who was back in the city after a long, called me up to ask about watching 'Dhobi Ghat'. I said 'Yes' without giving a second thought 'coz i too was planning to watch this movie.So finally we landed up in the theater and got the tickets just half hour before the show.
I had heard about the movie that it's completely art movie and had mixed reviews from all around. I wanted to watch the movie to see what exactly the movie was all about indeed.What's the hype factor,was it the story or was it only 'The Aamir Khan'.
Before movie began,we were regularly tortured for 10 minutes by a Verbal Note "There is no interval in the movie,kindly carry your snacks/drinks before the beginning". Screw it man,everyone heard it the very first time, now shut the f*#k up.
Finally the movie started,it had a very artistic touch since it's beginning.The camera positions,the flow,the direction.One thing i found in the movie was it wasn't carrying exaggerated glamor or say not even equal to normal which is the Numero-uno ingredient of the movies these days. As the script moved ahead, i was looking for a meaty story in the movie.Actually i was unable to figure out the object of the story, it was an aimless script for me for the first half hour.I was rendering a new kinda story at every significant turn of the script.I virtually woven tens of climaxes for the story before it finished.But in the end all those climaxes of my parallel mind were thrashed.
This story comprised of 4 character Arun,Munna,Shai and Yasmin.The script was tightly woven around the issue of 'Sorrows and Felicity in Life due to Relations'.All the 4 characters were interrelated to each other in the same sense. All of them were seeking a special person,a special relation and hence the Happiness in their Life.
Arun was a painter and a divorced man,means,for certain not happy with the relation with her wife.He found a perfect woman in Yasmin according to his intellect. So he portrays her in his mind as her true companion and carves it on the canvas as the best Art of his life.Hence induces a Virtual relation with her and achieves happiness.
Shai, who was seeking a simple,though rarefied , relationship with Arun . But she finally realized that someone else(Munna) was loving him from the core of his heart and it's not Arun,who casually ignores any kind of relationship with her.Hence she understood the real meaning of a relationship in the form of Munna and she finally ignores Arun by tearing apart the address of him which she was recently seeking.
Hence understanding of relationship and happiness is achieved by her.
Munna was topping around Shai, and was seeking a sensual relationship with her.But in the End he realized that Shai really likes Arun and she has no place for him in that part of her heart.He accepts this truth and achieves a state of mind that accepts Shai only as a friend and nothing else.Hence he evades unnecessary brainstorming and achieves peace of mind and Happiness.
Yasmin, the Virtual Character in the movie was a newly married girl shifted to mumbai recently,who seeks a true,responsive and loyal relationship from her husband,is actually deceived by him.She captures her each and every feeling in Video tapes and wanted to share them with her brother.But she never/couldn't delivered to him.Suddenly one day she came to know that her husband was keeping her in the dark and he had relation with some other woman.She felt ditched in the relationship.She committed suicide and embraces death.She felt honored to die respectfully rather living such a miserable and disgusted life with no relationship.
So finally i found this movie an epitome of sweet and bitter tastes of relationship issues and their affects on us.It's about how relations affect our Life.And how the better understanding about the relations can make our life worth living and happy. The ability of Perception is the prime apparatus of our personality to judge people and their feelings about us.Somewhere a part of Congnitive Psychology.
This was the inference of the movie according to my Notion.
Well i would say Hats off to 'Kiran Rao' who wrote such an awesome script and then Directed the whole script in such a beautiful and abstract way. 'Aamir Khan' was always my favourite now 'Kiran Rao' is in the list too.
