Review of Movie Saawariya (2007)

Stars: Ranbir Kapoor, Sonam Kapoor, Rani Mukherjee, Zohra Sehgal, Begum Para, Achla Sachdev

Direction: Sanjay Leela Bhansali

Saawariya is a lyrical odyssey and is not meant for general public, but aims for viewers who find cinema a synonym for aesthete.

The film portraits the romance between a young bar singer artist Raj (Ranbir Kapoor) who meets a mysterious chador-clad girl Sakina (Sonam Kapoor), a shy and quiet girl one silken night, standing on a smoky bridge. Sakina has a sad story about a lost lover (Salman Khan).

With his broken-hea, raj goes to Gulabji, a prostitute (Rani Mukherji) playing friend. There’s another classic cameo by Begum Para who binds her granddaughter Sakina to herself, with a safety-pin whenever she sleeps and watches Mughal-e-Azam even though she’s almost blind.

The movie has scenes similar to Raj Kapoor's film Sree 420, like the young couple tries to shelter under an umbrella in snow and rain.

Ranbir has proved himself with his powerful dances and emotions, similar to his father Rishi Kapoor.

This is not a movie for fun. It is a serious good love story.
