Imtiaz Ali loves tempering with
normal love between his lead roles. In this one, he creates a guy named Ved
(Ranbir), a crackpot, dumb-in-math, who is brought up listening to stories and
eyeing fictional figures. He is so damn abnormal in his behaviour that even in
normalcy he acts like a joker. As God is kind and even kinder to such buffoons,
his nautanki impresses a swear
words-mouthing bold babe, Tara (Deepika). In being friends-without-benefits and
friends-without-identity, they have a gala time with each other before Tara has
to fly back to India from Corsica – a Mediterranean island.
The song Heer to badi sad hai (a good song unnecessarily throws zoomed-in ugly faces in your face) spans across many years depicting Tara pleasantly lost in the times spent in Corsica. Ved on the other hand transforms himself from a stubbled live-wire to a French-cut bore. Imagining Ved a cool chap, Tara plots an accidental meet with him in a Delhi cafĂ©. Both hit it off immediately but soon our I-know-what-I-want heroine realizes that he isn’t the same guy who would do Matargashti in public being a Dev Anand. Like all sane, smart girls do, Tara breaks off with him and tells him to get his life back. He takes some time in introspection and in process funnily humiliates his boss and emotionally moves his father. Since he has found a mentor in his lover, he goes back to her and professionally begins to do what he does best - Tamasha.
Even though the end is predictable, Imtiaz Ali ensures freshness and keeps the movie majorly entertaining. Leads make a perfect pair with evolved acting. The music is a big plus and Rahman is, well, Rahman. Go, watch it to know, yet again, that following your heart has bloody no alternative.
