Saw "TZP" over the weekend in Chicago. I don't recollect a good children's movie other than 1993's "Hum Hain Rahi Pyaar Ke". The common link between those two; Aamir Khan. The "Perfectionist" is at it again taking the mantle of Producer, Director and Secondary Lead.
The primary lead is of course, Darsheel Safary, who is first-class as the dyslexic 'hero' of the film. It is unbelievable to see him act the way he has. Credit must go to the director, who ALWAYS makes or breaks a film. This being AK's first film and knowing his history of "ghost-directing" most of his previous movies, you sure know this won't be run-of-the-mill crazily directed over-the-top movie.
Natural performances from all who have acted in this one. Jokes are funny and sentimental scenes are worth shedding a tear or two. Ask Kirti and she will say. At one point during the movie, I saw Kirti, the female next to her and the female next to her all crying at a particular song.
Hope everyone sees the movie atleast once. Worth spending your money and time on a movie like this rather than "Saaaaaawariyaaaaaaaaaaa". I thanked God after I watched Saawariya for keeping me alive after that horrendous movie.
Next week, we plan on watching "Welcome". Akshay Kumar is a huge super-star now and all his movies released this year, "Namastey London", "Heyy Babyy", "Bhool Bhulaiyaa" have become good hits and entertained audiences. Welcome should entertain as well.
Still have the TZP hangover from yesterday and should get over it by the time we are ready for "Welcome".
Good food and good weather made saturday a nice day to start the 1o-day holiday.
Till I write next, ciao.
