brilliant brilliant movie..i cant put my finger on any one element in this movie that did the job..the acting was good, so was the plot and the locations, but it definitely wasn't one of those. The ambiance just worked perfectly, and the choice of cast was beyond brilliant. Deol has made a habit of working in the best movies of late. For a change, this is an Indian movie that is completely de-spiced and brought right back down to earth where the majority of the Indian populace finds itself. The debutante leading ladies do fabulously well, and the movie has this air of class about it..quite like a Tarantino flick. Regardless, Masand in his reviews for ibnlive criticizes Anurag kashyap's take on devdas. Masand is a mindless worshipper of icons and idols, and it wont be until kashyap has a temple named after him that Masand will consider pandering and kissing his ass.
