Manmarziyaan movie review
Usually, I do not watch a romantic Hindi movie as most of the storylines seem very predictable. After watching the movie trailer I decided I will watch it and hence here is it’s review. Bear with me as this is the first movie review I have ever written.

The thing I liked the most about the movie is its realistic storyline where the girl is torn between the decent guy who was chosen by her parents for her marriage and her boyfriend with whom she has been sneaking around from quite sometime. The story is set in Amritsar with its magnificent Golden Temple being the highlight as lead characters are Sikh.
Vicky Kaushal and Tapsi Pannu have acted really good as I expected them to perform. The thing that disappointed me a little is Abhishek Bachchan's performance. He acted well of course but I was not impressed for an actor making a comeback after a 2-year break when he is trying to compete with the caliber of performance shown by the likes of Ranbir Kapoor and Ranveer Singh. I guess Jr. Bachchan’s acting was overshadowed by Vicky Kaushal’s intense performance in this movie Manmarziyaan.
Overall I loved this Anurag Kashyap’s movie as it’s not a typical Bollywood love story. I did not like the ending that much(No spoilers so not gonna say what it was!) but it was worth watching in the theatre. I recommend watching this movie with your loved ones as it has some intense as well as emotional scenes which will make your heart melt!
