Drishti - Movie Review


I am not in my full senses to write a review about a movie.
The good thing is I can still write after 3 pegs of scotch. Hey, my body can sustain 90 ml of Ethyl Alchochol (42%  = approx 35 ml)
ok now this movie by Govind Nihalani is all about marriage, extra marital relationships and  how each other feel about marriage.
I got this from library just seeing Dimple kapadia on the front of the DVD.
She is gorgeous, cream/peach color and yes the sexy hair; I don't think any actress in india have such a beautiful hair as her's.
Ok, now here is the movie review:


Dimple and Sekhar kapoor leads a happy married life with their little daughter.
They invite their friends on their 8th wedding anniversary.
Dimple meets Irfaan khan during the party who is a hindustani classical singer.
Both have an affair for sometime and dimple leaves him as she loves her husband and family. Though there is no mention about when the affair ends in the movie.
Dimple have a friend whom she meets regularly and shares with her all her pain and love.
Her friend (mita vashisht) has a terrible relationship with her husband but continues to lead her life.
After some months, shekhar kapoor tells dimple that he loves his office colleague and he wants to be with her.
Dimple is shattered but unable to stop him and shekhar leaves the family and gets along with his new found girl.
After some days he comes back to dimple; though he calls regularly to talk to his daughter in between. 
When he meets her to discuss about the next day divorce proceedings, he says he doesn't want to stay with her new found love, Vrinda and he wants Sandya (dimple) back.
Dimple rejects and says she just can't see their marriage being fruitful anymore.
The movie doesn't show any subsequent scenes after this but eventually its understood that they meet regularly and Sandya possibly decides to go back to Rahul (irfaan khan).
when sandya meets Nikhil (shekhar) in the last scene, she discloses about the affair she had with Rahul sometime back; Nikhil feels shattered and they just discuss about their marriage and their affairs and the movie ends.


This movie is a brilliant take on urban couples and how they lead their lives. We can't say who is wrong as Sandya has an extra marital affair and thinks that she is not doing anything wrong but enjoying her new found affair. At the same time Nikhil leaving Sandya for his new love, vrinda also looks right.


But imagine one thing, (if you are a man) your wife having an affair with someone after 5-10 years of your marriage and you don't know then. You come to know only after a couple of years or even later and how do you feel? Its disgusting and you feel cheated and you won't get words to think or say.
Also imagine (if you are a woman) your husband says one day that he doesn't love you anymore and he loves a another girl and he has to leave you permanently. He doesn't want to call you, write to you or talk to you. How do you feel?


These are extreme things to even think about. There are no answers for these and its too difficult. But you never know what happens next. its all in the hands of time and god.
We just need to understand each other and try to live peacefully and happily; yes struggles, obstacles come in between and it depends on you how you handle. 


When a bot meets a girl, it looks so simple; fall in love, make love and enjoy the times.
But when you start living together its a complete game change. You don't feel the freshness of love you might've felt when you made love to her for the first time or during the early times. The fragrance, charizma would be gone eventually and you try to seek the same in a new girl. The girl feels the same too.
Its just natural and it all depends on where you are.
