Udaan - Wogma Readers Reviews

Udaan

Ronit Roy, Rajat Barmecha, Aayan Boradia, Ram Kapoor Dir: Vikramaditya Motwane

wogma rating: Buy the DVD already ^(?)

quick review: Udaan is not justAnurag Kashyap or Vikram Motwane 's life story. Udaan is the story of generations and generations conditioned into thinking that the suffocating expectations their parents endowed on them should be passed on as heritage, if not genetic code to their children. As if, entire lives were ancestral property or an old-old wristwatch - a super-conditional gift that comes with free emotional baggage.

Meetu, I had actually logged in to ping you for the preview of this apparently interesting movie. I was eagerly waiting for your preview since I saw the trailer :-) I hope this movie ends the long wait for a good quality Hindi movie.

Bollyfan:

Heartening run starting with the warm-up that Red Alert was...isn't it? I simply loved Udaan.

I do have a slightly different viewpoint on B.Singh's character. I feel that enough hints were dropped about the reasons behind his bitterness. ***MILD SPOILER ALERT***The dinner table conversation between father and son at J.Singh's place, the tattoo on his upper arm, the setting in which Rohan packs his bags towards the end, the couple of scenes where the parent in him comes out.***END OF SPOILER*** I feel all that was good enough for a cursory backstory and an explanation of the character.

Great review, meetu. Hope the movie would be equally great.

So, will it be okay now to officially declare that the wait for a good (Bollywood) movie has finally come to an end for you?

Kalyan:

One of the best movies of the year! Beautiful story, killer cinematography and wonderful acting and to top it all, one of the best OSTs of the year. No doubt you gave 5/5 to the lyricist. Glad to have seen this on the big screen. I hope it wins some awards, which will encourage more directors to make such movies.

Mansi:

The story is simple. It's real. It's relatable. It borrows a bit from everyone's life. And that's what makes it likeable. There are moments that make you cry, moments that make you laugh, moments that make you nod in agreement and moments that amaze you outright.
Udaan does remind you of Taare Zameen Par but is watchable, nevertheless, for its different treatment. Thumbs down only to the duration. Could've been far shorter.
