2018
3/5 stars
Susu (Aayush Sharma) is a failing college student with nothing but Garba on his mind. During Navaratri, he meets and falls in love with Michelle (Warina Hussain), a rich NRI from London, who is top in her university class. Despite the gulf between them, Susu pursues Michelle, but is warned off by her father (Ronit Roy). Michelle returns home after having a disagreeable scene with Susu who, encouraged by his uncle (Ram Kapoor), tries to find a way to reach London to apologize and declare his love.
The plot of this insipid romantic-drama is unrealistic and predictable. This is the debut movie for both principle actors, and neither is impressive. Hussain is too unsure of herself-- nearly shy-- to be a leading lady. While Sharma isn't a bad actor, a hero needs to be either charismatic or handsome, and preferably both. Sadly, he is neither. (What is with that horrible brushed-back hair style?!) He also suffered at the hands of the make-up artists, with thick cosmetics that are extremely obvious. The supporting cast gave good performances, however. The music and choreography are average, though the Garba scenes are lovely. I wavered between giving this two or three stars, but since I didn't enjoy it, but didn't actively dislike it, I'll rate it three.
