Befikre

'Befikre' is a Slog. There's not other way to put it up. Writer-Director Aditya Chopra fails to deliver a tale on Modern Love. Too many dares, very few laughs & a dragging second-hour, play a spoilsport.

'Befikre' Synopsis: After a coincidence, Dharam and Shyra (Ranveer Singh & Vaani Kapoor) meet & indulge in impulsive, engaging series of experiences. Doused in the spirit of Paris, they celebrate love, sex and focus on living life to the fullest. But love is inevitable.....

'Befikre' begins in a fun way & watching the protagonists indulge in lust rather than love, is interesting. But sooner than expected, the dares between them come across as silly & their differences appear plastic. Despite these pumps, the first-hour still keeps the energy coming. Its the second-hour, however, that fails completely. The addition of a new man in the leading lady's life, is clichéd & the series of events that follow, are tiresomely predictable. In short, 'Befikre' makes an attempt to make modern love look daring & rather impulsive, but the result, is underwhelming.

Aditya Chopra's Writing is breezy initially & some scenes are fun in the first-hour, but as mentioned before, the second-hour is devoid of excitement. The Dialogue, are quite good at places. Aditya Chopra's Direction is just about okay. 'Befikre' finds him limping & that's sad. Cinematography & Vishal-Shekhar's Score, merit a special mention.

Performance-Wise: Ranveer Singh is the sole saving grace. He nails every nuance of Dharam & also delivers the best laughs. He keeps the narrative going! Vaani Kapoor is very natural & shares a nice on-screen chemistry with Ranveer. Both the actors have done well, but sadly, the script lets them down.

On the whole, 'Befikre' is high on hype, but low on substance.

Befikre Directed By Aditya Chopra DDLJ Fame Director is Rom Com. Direction is Good But The Script is Predictable So Screenplay is Not Engaging. First Half is Good. But Second Half Is Pure Crap. Aditya Chopra is Better Director But Below Average Writing Makes The Movie A Dull Fair.

Dharam Meets Shyra They Hookup. They Stay Together For A Year In Live in Relationship. They Break-up And Now They Are Just Friends. Both Are Now Looking For Perfect Partner. Shyra Finds Some One And He Proposes Her Then Dharam Too Does The Same. Now How They Feel & Do They Still Love Each Other Is The Movie Befikre All About.

Ranveer As Dharam Is Brilliant In Each Frame. Vani Kapoor is Good in Parts Could Have Been Better.Rest Of The Cast Is Not Important As It's Only About Dharam & Shyra.

Music Is Good. Nashe Si Chhad Gayi By Arijit Singh & Title Track By Benny Dayal Are Too Good. Rest Of The Songs Are Average Compostion By Vishal-Shekhar.

So It's A Must Watch For Ranveer Fan. He is Too Good. Anything Else Doesn't Click. So Watch It For Ranveer Or Avoid For Yourself.

First it was Karan Johar with Ae Dil Hai Mushkil now Aditya Copra comes with one of the worst movie for this year Befikre. Let's put simple the movie does not have any story and is about 2 people who are crazy and are having sex wherever they want. Aditya Chopra who has made such classics earlier this was not expected.

Positives – Some good location and average music

Negatives- Not to be watched with family audience though a UA certificate (I wonder what happened to Pahlaj Nihlani) Bad acting poor script , dialogues are cheesy not humorous & equally bad direction.

Bottomline Please do not waste your valuable time and money

Befikre (2016): I never have any problem with lengthy duration like The Godfather,LOTR series but I never felt bored.In fact I enjoyed those films and remained classics.Why am I comparing those classics with Befikre?I am coming to the point.While I was watching Befikre,suddenly I felt that this movie is coming to its ending at last so I checked my watch but to my shock just 1 hour of the movie has completed:(:(:( At that moment itself I felt that how do I have to bear this crap for another hour..

Plot: A quintessential Delhi boy Dharam (Ranveer Singh) comes to Paris for work in search of an adventure. Just when he was about to embark on this journey of his life he bumps into a wild, free spirited, French born Indian girl Shyra (Vaani Kapoor). A feisty romance ensues between the two in which both of their personalities- one being an equal match for the other are tested to the limit. Battling their ups and downs, both realize that love is a leap of faith that can only be taken by those who dare to love.

Plus Points:

1)Ranveer Singh: With his typical but decent performance Raveer Singh is the only saving grace of the movie.He was very well suited and humorous in his respective role as Dharam Gulati who played a comedian/playboy.

2)Cinematography: Kaname Onoyama's cinematography is brilliant.He did extremely well showing the exotic Paris with beautiful camera work.

3)Nashe se Chad gayi: This is the only song which is very good and choreography in this song is very good.A good number for parties.

Minus Points: Apart from what I have written in plus points,rest of the movie is crap.Aditya Chopra,the legend who gave best romantic movie of India with DDLJ,gave this utter rubbish.

This movie was titled Befikre which means Without any worries.So I waited a lot to see what they will do "that crazy" without any worries.But only thing I found is that they only have sex and some kissing without worries.Clearly a wrong title for this movie.

Vaani Kapoor looked like a weird robot in few scenes.Her look is terrible.

The movie has 23 kissing scenes! One of the largest Bollywood movies have ever got.This is the only thing the makers wanted to attract and if you want to watch those weird kisses,you can watch this crap.Otherwise avoid this and save your valuable time..

My rating 4/10

There are movies and than there are worthless and useless movies ,this one is among them .don't waste time watching it . Seriously guys there needs to be dialogues in the movie to keep you watching it .songs and kisses wont take you too farther . it could have been put in a better way .watch dear zindagi and learn how to put things in a better way .reminder again don't go for watching . There is a sure problem with script. nothing wrong with acting .I have rated it 1 because 0 was not available as an option .hahaha i feel like wasting time writing review , but could save others money and time. Go watch some cartoon over it thats more befikre than movie befikre .
