Both of them are from different castes, their economic status is different but still both love and this is the mistake of this innocent love. After some colorful moments of the beginning, Parthvi’s father views his daughter with honey and gives them arrest in police.
For their love, honey and goddess are ready to do anything and do it. But in the end, whether they get this love or not, and to see what society does with their love, you have to go to the theaters.
The director, Nagraj Manjule’s ‘Sarat’, was a story in Maharashtra’s native soil, whose biggest success was the truth of this story. But Karan Johar, who is taking ‘Laserless Life’ canvas on the screen, we can not expect that much indigenous film. His films belong to the characters who talk of light, color and crores.
Something similar has been done with ‘Dhadk’. ‘Beat’ is colorful, with the story of ‘Sarat’ but it is not as indigenous. Ishaan Khattar is a good actor and he has done a good acting in this film too. But he did not seem as poor as he wanted. If we talk about acting, then, it is good to see Ishaan on the screen.
Right now, the road to Jahnavi Kapoor is quite long. He has been trying hard to make his character feel like a rift in the character of ‘Sarat’, but he has not been able to find ‘Aaki-like’ Lady Dabang. He is very beautiful on the screen, it can not be ruled out. Although it will be wrong to compare Jahnavi with his mother Sridevi, Jahnavi needs to work harder now.
Director Shashank Khetan has earlier made films like ‘Badrinath’s bride’ and ‘Hundi Sharma’s bride’. But after all the trouble in love in his films, Happy Ending is finally done. But ‘Sairat’ was not a movie made to please you, and in such a way, maintaining that flavor in Khatia’s remake i.e. ‘beats’ was a big challenge. Like ‘Sarat’, Archie’s boys get out of the well and go there with their friends. But this scene has been kept right in ‘Dhadk’ shot in Rajasthan. The lake has been taken in place of the well. But how does honey reach this pond in the city of lakes, they do not understand.
First half of this movie is good, it seems fun. But in second half there is a lot of coldness. Yes, if you have seen ‘Sarat’, then we will tell you that you will see newness in this film’s climax. Indeed, ‘Dhadk’ is a movie created for launching two Star Kids in Bollywood. But the real spirit of this movie is lost somewhere.
