Pretty nice words to begin the review with, wouldn’t you say? While they don’t begin the movie. they are from the movie. And they do sum up what the theme of this film is about.

Zooni, played by India’s sweetheart, Kajol, in her first starring role back on the silver screen after an absence of about five years, and Rehan played by Aamir Khan, are the star-crossed couple who light up the screen in this 2006 film, Fanaa.










Directed by Kunal Kohli, this is the story of the blind Kashmiri girl, Zooni, who ventures out into the world, on her own for the very first time without her parents. She’s a member of a dance company (yes, she’s blind and a dancer in this tale) and the troop travels down to New Delhi for a performance.

There in New Delhi she meets the troop’s tour guide Rehan. He an incorrigible flirt who spouts poetry and he never met a woman he didn’t like. Zooni’s friends warn her about Rehan, but this is the movies. So no amount of interference is going to keep them apart.

first half of this 163 minute film is the love story of how Zooni and Rehan met and fell in love. The courtship in and around Delhi has some of the most beautiful cinematography you’ll ever see. I’m was in awe as I watched, asking myself how could shot after shot be so beautifully composed?

The second half of the film brings on a change. From a romance, and a romantic comedy, and a musical – we suddenly find ourselves involved in a thriller. There’s a terrorist – but the film goes to great lengths to say that one man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom fighter.There’a bomb. There’s a nation in peril.


Comments

Poonam Joshi, writing for the BBC said: The hugely accomplished Kajol is no less mesmerising and the two share an unexpected chemistry, resulting in moments that are at once, tender and intensely chilling. Further bolstered by a strong supporting cast, it is the contrived script that is the film’s downfall.

John Anderson for the Los Angeles Times wrote: Kajol, however, is a wonderful actress (director Kunal Kohli can’t seem to take the camera off her). Khan, though not looking his best, has moments of genuine truth, as well as charm. And the intent of the movie is, as always, entertainment pure and simple.

he New York Times reviewer Nathan Lee opened his review with: The epic Bollywood extravaganza “Fanaa” goes so far over the top that it reinvents itself halfway and launches on a brand new trajectory of the absurd.
