A review of the movie RAANJHANAA



Film: Raanjhanaa
Cast:
Dhanush, Sonam Kapoor, Abhay Deol, Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub, Swara Bhaskar
Director: Aanand L. Rai





I have watched RAANJHANAA thrice in the theatre and I consider it ONE PIECE which is very well directed by Anand L. Rai. Stunning music by A. R. Rahman. The theme of the movie is quite realistic. Obviously it’s a mind blowing hit and a movie worth watching. It comes with the idea of innocent and true feelings of love and never-ending hope and tells us that we should never give up on true love. The story is full of surprises and it’s an extraordinary love story of an extraordinary lover. All the actors have done a marvelous job. Dhanush is unbelievable; he has achieved a new level of acting

There are so many things which are very beautifully shown in the movie. The whole story moves around the main character Kundan(Dhanush), the Pundit’s son. Kundan loves Zoya(Sonam Kapoor) from his childhood. Zoya is from the Muslim community. Once in 9th standard Kundan forcefully makes Zoya to accept his love proposal by cutting down his wrist but Zoya is sent out of the town for the study when her father comes to know about this matter. There Zoya falls in love with Akram/Jasjeet Singh(Abhay Deol) who leads his own new political party named AICP(ALL INDIA CITIZEN PARTY) in Delhi, which aims to change the Government to bring the revolution. So this movie also deals with the political aspects which go parallel with the love story. Jasjeet Singh(Abhay Deol) is also a very good supporting character. 

When Zoya comes back after completing the study she doesn’t even remember Kundan and when Kundan asks her for the marriage she considers him just a good friend explaining whatever happened in the 9th standard was just a childish thing. Now one more important character Bindiya(Swara Bhaskar) who loves Kundan but Kundan doesn’t care about her feelings because he deeply and madly loves Zoya. But Zoya doesn’t love him and when Zoya tells Kundan everything about her love, Kundan gets hurt and attempts to commit suicide but he is saved by his closest friend Murari who is always with Kundan in each and every situation and very well performed as a supporting character by Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub.


If we do an analysis of the movie we can say that Kundan loves Zoya very deeply and truly but always gets hurt by Zoya because she doesn’t love him and rejects his proposal. So, we would feel pity for Kundan but if we minutely observe we would find that unknowingly Kundan is doing the same thing to Bindiya which Zoya has done to him. So here’s the law of nature that a person loves someone and gets hurt but knowingly or unknowingly he/she has done the same thing with someone else who loves him/her but the person may not aware of it. The character of Zoya seems to be a selfish type of character. Zoya rejects Kundan’s proposal only because she is Muslim and Kundan is Hindu. But later on she falls in love with a Hindu boy and to marry him she cheats with her family and also Kundan. Zoya never takes Kundan’s feeling seriously or respects it, just takes the benefits of his feelings by his aid, keeping him in the dark, and she pays the price for it. And in the end Kundan cannot get his love Zoya though he sacrifices his whole life for her, which may be related to the religious aspect shown throughout the movie that Bindiya always fasts and prays to the mother cow that Kundan can not marry Zoya. So, who is right? Whose feeling is true? Kundan, Zoya or Bindiya? May be all of them are right in one or another way but the bitter truth is, the situation and their luck are against them. Somewhere they fail to recognize that wanting something forcefully always leads to pain and sorrow. We can see that as Zoya cannot see what Kundan feels for her, Kundan also ignores Bindiya’s feelings. So, the main problem is, we always wait for someone special to come into our lives but we never know that that special person may have been always around us, but it’s our bad luck that we fail to recognize. And this concept seems to be more real, which is quite related to the reality. That’s why there are very beautiful lines from the song PIYA MILENGE,
                                          

जिसको ढूंढे बाहर बाहर वो बैठा है भीतर छुप के,
तेरे अन्दर एक समंदर क्यों ढूंढे तुबके तुबके l
अकल के परदे पीछे करदे
अकल के परदे पीछे करदे, घूंघट के पट खोल रे,
तोहे पियापिया
तोहे पिया मिलेंगे, मिलेंग, मिलेंगे
तोहे पिया मिलेंगे, मिलेंग, मिलेंगे
तोहे पिया मिलेंगे।

                             And some other lines like,

जो है देखा, वोही देखा तो क्या देखा है,
 
जो है देखा, वोही देखा तो क्या देखा है।
देखो वो जो औरों ने ना कभी देखा है,
 
देखो वो जो औरों ने ना कभी देखा है।
नैनो से ना ऐसा कुछ देखा जो होता है,
नैना मीचो तो वो सब दिख जाता है।
तोहे पिया मिलेंगे, मिलेंगे, मिलेंगे
तोहे पिया मिलेंगे, मिलेंगे, मिलेंगे



DIALOGUES

The dialogues of the movie enhance its charm. At the very beginning, "लड़की और राकेट इंसान को कही भी लेजा सकते है l", says Kundan.

Superb dialogue deliveries by Murari like,प्यार ना हुआ, तुम्हारा U.P.S.C. का एक्जाम हो गया है l दस साल से क्लियर ही नहीं हो रहा है l

Another one is,अबे पंडित, मोहल्ले के लडको का प्यार अल्सर डाक्टर और इंजिनियर उठा के ले जाते है l’’ 
To which Kundan replies, मुरारी, ये बनारस है l अगर लड़का साला यहाँ भी हार गया, तो जीतेगा कहाँ l’’

Then one more beautiful dialogue when a stranger tells Kundan(Dhanush), दुनिया की किसी गंगा में, किसी दरगाह के किसी धागे में वो ताकत नहीं जो इंसान को इंसान का कतल माफ़ कर दे l’’

नमाज़ में वो थी, पर ऐसा लगा दुआ हमारी मंज़ूर हो गयी l’’ ,says Kundan.

हमें अपने गाल पे थप्पड़ के दुःख से ज्यादा उसके गाल पे पप्पी का सुख था l’’, says Kundan after Zoya slaps him.


"ये देख तेरे लिए स्कूटर खरीदा था, तू बेइठी ही नहीं l मेरे पीछे बैठना पड़ेगा l मेरी कमर पकडनी पड़ेगी l में ब्रेक मारू तो मेरे ऊपर गिरना पड़ेगा l मेरी बातो पे हसना पड़ेगा l मेरे साथ गाना गाना पड़ेगा l इतना तो कर ही देगी तू l गर्लफ्रेंड ना सही, फील ही देदे l", says Kundan to Zoya expressing his deep, innocent and pure feelings.

हम खून बहाए, तुम आंसू बहाओ l साली आशीकी ना हो गयी, लाठीचार्ज हो गया l", says Kundan to Zoya.


तुम्हे क्या लगता है जोया, तुम बहुत हूर की परी हो l तुम्हे प्यार करना मेरा टैलेंट है जोया, ईसमे तुम्हारा कोई हाथ नहीं है l तुम्हारी जगह कोई भी होती तो में उससे भी इतना ही टूट के प्यार करता l",says Kundan to Zoya

Another one important dialogue when Zoya talks about her love Jasjeet Singh and tells Kundan,
ये सब मेरे साथ पहली बार हो रहा था कुंदन l बनारस से लेके अलीगढ और फिर दील्ही तक ये पहला इंसान था जिसने मुझे ऐसे ट्रीट किया था l उसके लिए जैसे बस में थी l जैसे बाकी लोग वैसी में l"  
                            This seems to prove the psychology of our mind that we always fall in love or get attracted to the person who just ignores us, doesn’t give so much importance and doesn’t care for us, not with the person who is deeply attached with us, madly loves us and always looks after us. 




In one scene of the movie when Zoya is telling Kundan, तुम्हे कुछ समज में आता है कुंदन l तुम्हारे नाम के पीछे शंकर लगता है और हमारे हैदर l ये सुनने में ही अलग है l" At that time Kundan(Dhanush) gives excellent  expressions and he might be thinking, अरे पगली, प्यार का कोई मजहब नहीं होता l प्यार ना तो हैदर जानता है और ना ही शंकर l ये तो वो पवित्र बंधन है जो बस एक इंसान को इंसान से जोड़ना जानता है l"
 
MOST TOUCHING DIALOGUES

                      सब तो इतने अच्छे से कर रही थी तू, यहाँ आखरी में आके क्यों गड़बड़ा गयी जोया  l जोया तू फिर मुसलमान को हिन्दू बता रही है  l संभाल खुद को  l प्यार में मत पड मेरे l ये पागल है जोया, तू तो समजदार है l जोया, मुझे नहीं पता तू क्या चाह रही है, कहाँ जाने को कह रही है l पर जहां भेजेगी में वहाँ जाऊँगा l और कसम मुझे भोलेनाथ की, हर जगह जीत के आऊंगा l  और तब भी अगर तुझे लगे के मुझे प्यार करने से दुनिया थुकेगी तुझपे, तो मेरा बचा हुआ सतरवा थप्पड़ दे जाना l वरना अपने गाल पे मेरी बची हुई पप्पी में तुझसे ले जाऊँगा l"

                        This dialogue is indeed very deep... Though Kundan knew everything, he just sacrifices himself for his love.

Last but not least,

                 बस इतनी सी कहानी थी मेरी l एक लड़की थी जो बगल में बैठी थी l ये कुछ डॉक्टर थे जो अभी भी इस उम्मीद में थे के शायद मुर्दा फिर से चल पड़े l एक दोस्त था जो पागल था l एक और लड़की थी जिसने अपना सब कुछ हार  दिया था मुझपे l मेरी माँ थी, बाप था, बनारस की गलियाँ थी, और ये एक हमारा शरीर था जो हमें छोड़ चूका था l और ये एक हमारा सीना था जिसमे अब भी आग बाकी थी l हम उठ सकते थे, पर किसके लिये l हम चीख सकते थे, पर किसके लिये l मेरा  प्यार जोया, बनारस की गलियाँ, बिंदिया,मुरारी सब मुझसे छूट रहा था l परख भी किसकी ले लेते l मेरे सीने की आग या तो मुझे जिंदा कर सकती थी, या फिर मुझे मार सकती थी l पर साला अब उठे कौन l कौन फिर से मेहनत करे दिल लगाने को, दिल तुडवाने को l अबे कोई तो आवाज़ देके रोक लो l ये लड़की जो मुर्दा सी आँखे लिए बैठी है बगल में, आज भी अगर बोल दे तो महादेव की कसम वापस आ जाए l पर नहीं अब साला मुड नहीं है l आँखे मूंद लेने में ही सुख है l सो जाने में ही भलाई है l पर उठेंगे किसी रोज़, उसी गंगा किनारे डमरू बजाने को, उन्ही गलियों में दोड जाने को, किसी जोया के इश्क में फिर से पड जाने को l…

                      This is how the tragedy of a true lover takes place. "प्यार में तडपते तो बहुत है इस दुनिया में , पर कुंदन तो तड़प तड़प के तड़पता है l that’s why in the last scene Murari says, "मरजा पंडित l" Because he was bearing more than death.

                      True love needs no proof but Kundan had to prove his love. Kundan loves Zoya but gets rejected. He tries but gets rejected. He helps her but gets insulted. He fights for her love and at last he wins but he is no more… 


                       I must say that Raanjhanaa is the best...the one... The masterpiece… biggest immortal heart touching hit of the decade undoubtedly. The love story that never dies. Mind blowing acting by Dhanush and Sonam. Excellent...a must-watch movie. Raanjhanaa rules on the box-office. I can say that raanjhanaa has given Dhanush a very good start in Bollywood and it will be very lucky for both Dhanush and Sonam. Wish you luck, to both Sonam and Dhanush for the brightest career.
