Fitoor-480P

Fitoor_1080P

Abhishek Kapoor has mesmerized the audience with romantic saga. After success of Kai Po Che, Abhishek has directed this movie which is based on Charles Dickens' novel Great Expectations. Tabu has stolen the show from other lead star-casts and delivered one of best performance. Aditya was good but Katrina has to focus on her acting skill. In short role, Lara Dutta and Ajay Devgan were done really good job. Anay Goswamy's brilliant cinematography gave you feel of beautiful Kashmir. Amit Trivedi's soulful music added some flavor in romance. Novel based script was slightly slow but colorful. Transformation and re- entry of Ajay devgan were quite unexpected.This is totally Fitoor of Tabu.

I had no expectations when I watched this movie on Netflix. Although I had liked the trailer at the time I had also read the poor reviews the movie had received when it released. I mainly tuned in because of the nice soundtrack and I was pleasantly surprised that this was a visually stunning and very well acted movie. All the actors depicted their characters beautifully and this was the first time we see a mother hindering her daughter from chasing love because of her own sad story. It was very well directed and a beautiful film, even if is much slower than the usual bollywood fare it was a convincing tale and captivating.

Film is based on Great Expectations by Charles Dickens, written & directed by Abhishek Kapoor. Aditya Roy Kapoor and Katrina are in the lead as Noor and Firdaus respectively. Tabu is playing the role of Begum and mother of Firdaus. Ajay Devgn, Lara Dutta & Aditi Rao Hydari have cameos in this film. Story is set in Kashmir. While Noor was about thirteen years old, he fell in love with Firdaus, a daughter of a rich Begum of Kashmir. When Firdaus was sent to London for further studies, Noor became artist by heart. As we all know that loosing the game of love will surely do something for you if you know how to dill with it. So heart broken person Noor has now became an artist, a passionate painter. He was sent to Delhi by his client where he again met Firdaus. Both of them fell in love with each other this time. But as per experiences, Tabu was strictly against this type of true love. So, separation happened once again in the life of Noor-Firdaus. Will they meet again is the question which will be cleared till the end. Story has many flows. But, missing factor of Fitoor is soul. I was not able to connect myself to the movie. Though somehow I felt that this was something like what was happened to me. But, talking about the point of view of the audience, the film is dull. Only Tabu's character is something to watch, even her younger version which was played by Aditi Rao Hydari, has the main root of the film. As I was wondering that what was the role of Tabu, means was she a negative character or not! This query get solved in post interval part during the presence of Aditi. So that the one part I liked the most is this one. Aditya Roy Kapoor is as usual. Katrina is as usual dumb. She has no expressions at all. Lara Dutta is good. Ajay is okay. Aditi is superb in her small role. Tabu is the one woman army of Fitoor. Costumes and sets are gigantic. Kashmir looks as always beautiful. But, my mind is continuously comparing this Kashmir with the Kashmir of Haider. Sometimes it was also comparing Noor with Rockstar's Jordan. Even, Abhishek Kapoor was also compared by Vishal Bhardwaj. May be that's why, I may not like this film. Because Vishal is at the top. Nobody can touch that line. So, I'm confuse what to say about the direction. Dialogues are fabulous. Yes, after Tabu, this is the second plus point of the film. Music is the third and last plus point. Yeh Fitoor Mera and Pashmina are so much soulful song. Lyrics have been written by Swanand Kirkire. Background score is also good. On the whole, if you are just going for a valentine date, then don't go for this. If you are going for something new to watch than only you can go for it. But, it is up to you, you have to made a choice to watch it or not, because I'm not saying anything. It's in Hindi and Urdu language, so lack of knowledge may also disappoint you. Yeh Fitoor Nahi Aasaan...
