Bin Roye (2015)

BIN ROYE, what it makes to make a real classical love story family drama flick. A good script, brilliant screenplay great music, flawless direction , superb acting and melodious music. Just to mention some of the all-time family drama romantic movies like Silsila, Kabhi Alvida na Kehna , Saajan, Ashqui etc had all these ingredients (even though I don't market Bollywood movies any more) and moviegoer came out of cinema emotionally attached to these movies. Now question rises does BIN ROYE has these ingredients or not, talented Hamuyun Saeed along with Mahira Khan and the director Momina Duraid who is very well known in making great dramas. Bin Roye had everything to be a great love story ever told on silver screen but alas it didn't seems to happen. Momina Duraid the director seems to make a drama serial of 120 Mins or so not a movie, from acting to dialogues , Bin Roye had its loop wholes which spoil a great love story into a just an average movie. The acting, Humyun Saeed and Mahira Khan both disappoints, even though both had a great margin but director has not been able to use their full talent. Its totally underacting, scenes may have been much much better , Question rises was Humayun Saeed was a right choice if same role has been done by Fahad Mustafa or Fawad Khan or Humza Ali Abbasi, Mahira khan even though has done better acting but definitely acting may have been much better. Music is the strong area of the movie. On positive side , as one of the first movie from Momina Duraid as a Director, we hope next time she does justice to her movie direction, as a Pakistani Movie not a bad one but surely BIN ROYE may have been a great love story. On the whole just an OK movie, which surely have been a great movie but the director seems to be confused that either it's a drama for HUM TV or a silver screen movie. Acting 4.5/10 Story 7/10 Music 8/10 Direction 4/10 Overall 6/10

I came out of this movie with mixed feelings.The story line and the dialogues were cliché, boring and extremely predictable. It is basically a Pakistani drama turned into a movie. I wasn't that impressed by the acting either. The main actor was definitely too old to play the role and casting him with Mahira Khan was no doubt a big mistake...the couple looked odd and awkward together and that was a massive blow to the movie.The direction, songs and setting however was a work well done.It was extremely colorful and glamorous. Had it not been for those, I would have forever mourned the loss of my time and money.It just depends on what you consider a good movie to be. People who have low tolerance for shallow plot lines, steer clear.

This movie is a waste of time. NO STORY LINE, NO CHARACTER Definition. It is a waste of time seriously and guess what the first half of the movie is so BOOOOORING They have wasted a lot of money on this i wonder why is no one talking about the story as it has been repeated again and again in Bollywood many times. I would not even give 1 star to this but I am giving it because of Mahirah Khan(i am a big fan of her). Humayun Saeed proved once again that he might have good links in Lollywood otherwise the way he looks and act nobody would like to spend penny on him. Total waste of time. They should have hired a better script writer much better script writer. Seriously. BAD and BAD MOVIE. Watch only if you are a big fan of Mahirah like me. I think Mahira has to wait a bit more to get a good movie like BOL again.

I was excited to see Mahira Khan and the previews of this movie looked really good. Well folks...don't waste your time and money. The plot is so silly that by the last 20 minutes we were just anxious to leave. Basically we were making fun of the movie the entire time, and the last parts just dragged on. The acting is also terrible. Mahira Khan is pretty good, everyone else needs to take major acting lessons. The pace of the movie was super fast...it's almost as if they wanted to fit an entire Pakistani drama series into a 2 hour movie. But then again some parts were so slow it was cringe-worthy. The only reason I am giving it 3 stars is because I actually enjoyed the clothes/song/dance. The definitely tried to have the Bollywood element in the movie and at least that part was semi-enjoyable. However, Pakistani directors need to learn from their Indian neighbors how to properly make a movie. Save your money guys, this movie really isn't worth it!
