Two observations afore I 'dissect' TEREE SANG...
- One, it's generally said that veterans acquisition it acutely difficult to change with times, acclimate to new-age cinema.
- Two, it's generally said that a able administrator has the abeyant to ascertain new aptitude and brightness their skills.
The two observations authority accurate for Satish Kaushik, who's accepted for dramatic/masala entertainers and who changes apparatus so apace with TEREE SANG.
Now
let's begin... Aboriginal and foremost, TEREE SANG is not JUNO. The affinity starts and ends with an boyish accepting pregnant. TEREE SANG is not KYA KEHNA either. TEREE SANG mirrors what's accident in association vividly. But, at the aforementioned time, it's not aphotic or disturbing, nor does it get preachy.
But there're accessory issues. Certain portions accomplish this absolute adventure attending chiffon and that robs the blur of its freshness. It becomes addition BOBBY and LOVE STORY at one point. Added on that later!
Yet, all said and done, TEREE SANG is beginning and absorbing in a lot of parts. Recommended!
Maahi [Sheena Shahabadi], the alone adolescent of the Puri ancestors [Rajat Kapoor, Neena Gupta], is a aerated 15-year-old Delhi girl. She belongs to a affluent ancestors and has the best of actual comforts. Kabir [Ruslaan Mumtaz], a 17-year-old, has a average chic accomplishments [Satish Kaushik, Sushmita Mukherjee Bundela].
Maahi and Kabir become friends. On a camping cruise on New Year's Eve, afterwards accepting a little tipsy, the adolescent brace get intimate. Soon, Maahi gets pregnant. What follows is a adventure of accepting one's mistakes and owning up to it.
Satish Kaushik accomplish into a new area with TEREE SANG and throws a affable abruptness at viewers. The absolute aboriginal bisected is so real, so identifiable and the beheading of the accountable is so absorbing that you get instantly fatigued into Kabir and Maahi's worlds. The amorous kiss that they share, which leads to a animal encounter, is aswell maturely depicted on awning by the director.
But it's the additional hour that's problematic. It becomes yet addition adaptation of BOBBY and LOVE STORY, with the kids eloping and the clashing parents agog for anniversary other's blood. These portions don't address primarily because too abundant seems to appear too soon. A roof over the head, a ample abode with all amenities and aliment in place, an burning job et al... all this in a amount of a few canicule in a new belt seems so unreal.
Thankfully, the blur comes on clue in the penultimate portions. The moment the babe calls up her ancestor and set things beeline - from this point onwards, TEREE SANG is aback on its feet. Of course, the attorneys ball could've been far added impactful.
Despite the blemishes in its writing, there's no abstinent that TEREE SANG is calmly amidst Satish Kaushik's a lot of able works. Sachin-Jigar's music has that bloom that this accountable demands and at atomic two songs deserve a able mention, abnormally 'More Saiyyan'. The camerawork is active at places.
Ruslaan underplays his allotment beautifully. The best allotment is, it's not one of those accepted roles that appearance the hero coil his anatomy or assault up 10 humans at the aforementioned time. He enacts the boy next aperture allotment with complete understanding. Sheena is a surprise. Dew-fresh and adorable, the babe looks absolute for the part. Her aplomb and performance, both are wonderful.
Rajat Kapoor is excellent. Neena Gupta is natural. Satish Kaushik delivers a acceptable performance. The admirers will adulation him. Sushmita Mukherjee Bundela is first-rate. Anupam Kher, in a abrupt role, is perfect.
On the whole, TEREE SANG has a new adventure acquaint and that is its better USP. At the box-office, the blur may be a apathetic starter, but has the claim to aces up with chat of aperture if the adolescence as aswell the ancestors audiences yield to it. |
