Dear Zindagi (2016)

The story is so well written . The actor and actress are TOP notch, The Cinematography is very beautiful.

In Mumbai and Goa, Kaira (Alia Bhatt) is a promising cinematographer who wishes to direct her own films. Blunt and cynical, she is most comfortable when with her three best friends, Fatima (Ira Dubey), Jackie (Yashaswini Dayama) and Ganju (Gautmik). Kaira's life takes a downturn when Raghuvendra (Kunal Kapoor), a film producer for whom she breaks up with her childhood sweetheart, gets engaged to someone else. Her landlord turns her out of her apartment because the building association wants to rent apartments only to married couples. All this plus dissatisfaction with her prospects at work serves as a catalyst for her shift to Goa, where she now has to grudgingly live with her parents (Aban Deohans and Atul Kale) with whom she has some issues. She ends up spending many sleepless nights in unhappiness and uncertainty.While in Goa, she seeks out Dr. Jehangir "Jug" Khan (Shah Rukh Khan), a psychologist, for her insomnia, after inadvertently having heard him talk at a Mental Health Awareness Conference.

Dear Zindagi Review-Positive Points-Few Emotional Scenes Plus Great Acting By Alia,Srk & Excellent Direction By Gauri Shinde(Cam work is good nowadays in all movies so don''t need to say. 1.Storyline Rating:7.5 Content:8 Commercialization:5.5 Entertainment:7.5 Acting Rating:7 Alia Bhatt: 4 Shah Rukh Khan: 4 Kunal Kapoor: 3 Yashaswini Dayama:6.5 Direction Rating:7.5 Music Rating:7.5 Cinematography:8 Editing:7.5 Very competent acting. Natural flowing screenplay. Engaging music. There's a lot going right for the moviegoers.But overall, a great effort around a socially relevant theme... Keeping it light and entertaining is an achievement. srk proved himself he is the king of bollywood..

With all the high expectations I watched Dear Zindagi and here's how it went. Let's put it straight. The movie was going nowhere in the very first hour. It felt like a plot less and boring one. Throughout the film even SRK was a co- actor I felt like that Alia was under-shadowed by him. He was, as always actually brilliant. Alia wasn't so devoted to the character she was playing. She failed to pervade herself into Kaira. But then the twist took place. I cannot remember when I watched a film soothing as this in my recent past. It was so appeasing and will gladden your mind. Eventually Dr.Jug will help you to look through your life again from a different perspective. - ----"DON'T LET THE PAST BLACKMAIL YOUR PRESENT TO RUIN A BEAUTIFUL FUTURE!"-----
