Here she is giving solid competition to her and probably even outdoing her at places. Like anyone who has seen her in Student of the Year (2012), I laughed off her comment as wishful thinking. She made an appearance on her mentor's chat show recently and said she considers Parineeti Chopra her competition. It happened gradually and at the end it reached a crescendo.Īlia Bhatt is absolutely stunning in this film. The first half of the film is more conventional but the more it went away from conventions the more I fell in love with it, by the time it went for interval I already had goose bumps. She connects with nature, outside and inside. This film borders on a fantastical road movie, sometimes it becomes a love story and then it becomes a film about a girl's emancipation from her cage. I think this would have a lot to do with whether you connect with this film or not. It's not that I dislike beaches but I just prefer mountains. There is a moment in the film where Veera asks Mahabir (Randeep Hooda) if he likes mountains or beaches. Highway will certainly divide the audience as well. The latter more than the former but the latter also garnered more passionate support thanks to Ranbir Kapoor's performance and A. Love Aaj Kal (2009) and Rockstar (2011) divided the audience. Everybody loved Jab We Met (2007), a film so likable and perfectly mainstream. Then again, this might be the film he's been wanting to make all this while. It is probably not even like an Imtiaz Ali film. The rest of it is not like a genre film about a girl being kidnapped at all. Highway is a film that starts like a typical genre film about a girl being kidnapped. Except this is one of those rare times where I might not be able to explain why I loved a film so much. Not because I don't want to, I really want to. Honestly, I decided not to review this film. There are moments when Alia Bhatt's character, Veera, laughs and cries and doesn't know why she is expressing her emotions this way. This is really very hard for me to put this in down in words what I loved about Highway or why I loved it. Reviewed by sidin 9 /10 A Cinematic Triumph - "HIGHWAY"
So I am not going to reveal anything of the plot.īe patient while watching Highway.

Best way to watch a movie is to know nothing about it. Her natural look without makeup suits the role. It is easy to dismiss it as too far-fetched to happen in real life.īoth Alia and Randeep are great – Alia more so as it is essentially her story. I expect even people who liked his previous movies may not like Highway. It is as if he decided to reward himself after making lots of successful mainstream movies and made a movie close to his heart. Highway is his most personal and non-commercial film. Lucky are the actors he decides to work with. The guy is a true genius and his every movie is like poetry on film. After watching the film, I feel ashamed that I had any doubts about him. No man can always hit the bulls eye every time. I fear that his new creation will disappoint me. I regard Imtiaz Ali so highly that I dread watching his every new film. Reviewed by ugni-rao 10 /10 Imtiaz Ali's personal and close to his heart film This movie comes with a message and we are left to think what freedom and liberation means. I won't go more into the story line as that is something to be experienced. The movie forces us to think about the society we live in and how people struggle to lead a normal life. Alaya Bhatt and Randeep Hooda deliver power packed performances with a great supporting cast. Their journey is the theme of this movie. Both the characters have there own painful pasts and when they come together they let it all go and try to start it all over again.

Its not exactly a love story but a tale of two people who want to get free and experience life. Imtiaz Ali yet again delivers a "hat ke" love story. From direction and cinematography to performances and music. Let me start by saying that this movie has everything right about it. Reviewed by ankurlkw 10 /10 A fabulous movie
