I can't believe I am watching a movie as amazing as "Pyaar Impossible" after more than a decade of its release. Heart goes out to Abhay and as per the story you still can't blame Alisha for his total invisibility in her life. The picked concept and the shaped story of the movie both were rock solid with no forced stretch or unnecessary lovey-dovey masala at all. The best part of the story was the enacted song where the attractive girl gets rejected just coz she dressed up nerdy and could relate with how common it is to judge people by looks yet be completely unaware of it. The story was very natural and the way Abhay chose to reveal his identity to Alisha through her daughter's school performance, was also wittily thought out with absolute patience while fitting right with the character who he was as a person in his life. I have to say I had little expectations from Uday Chopra as an actor, but he was picture-perfect in all the scenes and gelled well in the character. Needless to say, the character of Abhay as well as Alisha was not at all rushed and perfectly written with just-right expressive words in their dialogues throughout the story. It is so cool, when you come across a movie that just amazes you when you have no expectation at all. People don't let this movie be underrated. Luv!

I watched "Wake Up Sid" recently and immediately repented the laziness that kept me from not watching it much before. I loved everything about the movie and apparently, these gems of movies are made rarely these days. Movie creators have done a wonderful job setting up a fresh tone in the story with all the aesthetic sets and creative interiors, and the emotions of the story are well-synchronized with the music & song lyrics. Exquisite creativity is displayed in showing the character sketches and offering the audience adequate character knowledge to distinguish between the character nuances without explicitly explaining them in dialogues. The first introduction of Sid, his procrastination for focus, his comfort belonging in his creative world rather than in his studies, his innocently naive mindset, and his discomfort with facing his weaknesses - his entire character sketch was brilliantly consistent, creatively explained and beautifully spread across the story. Apart from the central character, the other character sketches were also accurately consistent and played a unique role in Sid's life. Ayesha's character starts in the movie, with herself lost in writing her diary in the middle of a chaotic party, thereby attracting Sid's attention who is curious and smitten at the same time. The most beautiful part of this love story is that it maintains itself displaying every scene that shows Ayesha and Sid choosing an exact opposite choice for every scenario in the story. Yet Sid finds himself following Ayesha and her choices, owning them for himself later. Though Ayesha likes Sid's company but rejects him as her potential partner, realizes only later that she had also much to learn from him and finally falls for him. A heartfelt story that gives a life moral but also in a very realistically progressive fashion. I have a special thanks to the makers for crafting something for the literary & bibliophile audience, combining it with the vibes of the classic Bombay and giving it an aesthetic tone of sea scenes, creative offices, and house interiors. A magical reminisce of old Amol Palekar movies. Thanks so much again!! Luv!!

I am so amazed that I did not see this movie all this while. How amazing a movie can be? None of the characters are ordinary, none of these are ever seen before, talking simple dialogues, but the right pauses, the eyes of the actors have so much to say. Bill Parrish, a man with few words, has so much courage and character; and is revered accordingly by his family and colleagues. When death tells him, it is standing a few days apart, his first reaction is not panic, he just accepts and gives the man honor needed in that hour; that itself says so much about his character, also later as an employer and a family head. He does not impose on anyone around him, what he thinks, but is always candid enough to share what his honest and open minded opinion, just as he would have it for himself. Not what suits him and benefits him. That is selflessness and real wisdom... Susan is deeply instinctive, the way she reads people's emotions and body language, is so unique. Her body language is so beyond words and that was a major part of her character, she could sense the truth and never pushed anyone to put it in words for her, but she knew and accepted it. Brad Pitt is, as we know him, a great actor, and the two characters he plays - the candid boy and death man, were poles apart. However, much more than that, the twist in the love story is so unique and so heart touching. Overall this is 10 on 10.
