This weekend owes its share to one of the highly anticipated movies, Bombay Velvet! Yeah…the same movie that has an ensemble of Anushka Sharma, Ranbir Kapoor, Karan Johar, Manish Choudhary, Kay Kay Menon, Siddharth Basu and Vivaan Shah. So, are you hearing me? I am taking you to our quick film review that’ll help you decide on whether to watch or not watch the film! Here we go, in to the world of Bombay Velvet. The film is all about a small-time thug named Ranbir aka Johnny Balraj and his struggle to become a somebody in the big bad city of Bombay. He works as a henchman for Karan aka Khambatta, Johnny’s ticket to fame. Johnny’s weakness is Anushka aka Rosie Noronha, a singer in a nightclub called Bombay Velvet. There's certainly a lot happening — too many faces, too many leads and too many "taaliyan!" dialogues. What definitely works is the intensity in all the actors, particularly Johar and Kapoor. The music is also a winner: it's ambient and evocative of the time, while the cheerful lilt of the score contrasts sharply with the darkness of the action unfolding before us. It's also shot sumptuously, with warm colours and dark shadows that ooze with gold-tinted nostalgia. The production and art direction definitely looks grand, but there’s a sense of overkill too. It’s as though every possible element that points towards vintage Bombay is being thrown at us. Big hair and shiny clothes? Check. Jazz music? Check. Men in suits and hats? Check. Bouts of over-acting? Check. Watch it to love it and here’s our rating- 3.5 stars on 5!
