Dev D......i saw the trailers and i saw something different...a trailer so full of dope and booze i thought to myself "is this film trying to be different"????.....then i saw Anurag kashyap as the director...i was full of hope...frankly speaking, if ever there was an Indian director good enough to pull of something like Dev d, it had to be kashyap...this film is brave, intelligent and path-breaking all at the same time...in the credits i saw the text, concept by:Abhay Deol...this Deol boy is also starting to impress me...first Oye lucky and now Dev D....his taste and selection is getting awesome by the day.... i would like to make a special mention of the dialogues in this movie...when i say this movie is brave i give a lot of credit for it to the dialogues...to say what has been said in this movie and to show what has been shown u need to be brave as a director...that is precisely why i think Dev d is path breaking...Indian cinema hasn't tried to portray a character like Dev ever...i just hope that we don't see a flurry of more such movies being made...i fear it because back in 2003 when sex-comedy Masti did well at the Box office we saw umpteen such movies degrading the entire cumulative output of the Indian Film Industry.... Dev d stands out for a variety of reasons...music, cinematography, storyline, actors, direction.....everything was appropriate and made a lot of sense...i hope that Indian directors and the Film Industry takes a lot of inspiration from this movie....may be stop searching for exotic locales and start looking for a better Storyline....may be a badly scripted work in Switzerland wont pay as many dividends as a beautifully scripted project in Paharganj can....this movie proves that...it teaches u that script and storyline is above everyone...no actor is bigger than the script...right story with the right combination of actors(not necessarily superstars) can do the trick for u... Dev D is an education...Dev D is an institution...Dev D is AWESOME....
