Mod Film Assessment
Knowing that Mod comes from a director behind a few of the finer films like Hyderabad Blues, Dor and Iqbal, you clearly don’t desire to miss it. She claims to deal with a psychological particular person with her Internet research, what was the doctor doing all this whereas? The no-make-up-look suits her. Now, Mod gets struck in between the 2 categories. Also, the complete ‘sell the house to resort makers’ part was absolutely uncalled for. We won’t reply these question, for these solutions are the one bait to tug you to observe Mod. However, you can’t forget that he has also given duds in Bombay to Bangkok and 8X10 Tasveer. This unusual and delicate love story comes like a half-baked cake that leaves a foul taste in your mouth! Though the VJ turned actor hams in sure places but we may give it to him because the role was fairly challenging for a new comer. As per the story Aranya has found love after a very long time, however the reason behind her unhealthy luck isn’t revealed. For example, Aranya and her father wait for a practice every single day hoping that her mom, who left them way back, will return, but at the end you realise that it had no relevance to the principle plot. Then who’s the guy she has been assembly every single day? And he brings this small town setting into the story and characters additionally with sticking to particulars like making the protagonist ride a moped, not giving them cell-phones and making her repeat clothes like another strange girl. We agree that movies are not imagined to be dissected beneath a microscope and every movie has some unreal moments, but Mod has a series of illogical and unreal stuff that bugs you after a while. Climax is a weak affair that does not gel, because of flawed writing. She lives in Ooty, with her father Ashok (Raghuvir Yadav) and a bua Gayatri (Tanvi Azmi). And essentially the most amusing part of this “love story” is that even after the film ends, you do not know that who does Aranya love? Soon she additionally falls in love with him. There’s an previous world charm to your entire Utopian town setting, which is kind of different from Kukunoor’s earlier creations. The script is not only a rickety trip of occasions but has many free ends too, and our poor director muddled up bringing them together. Sooner or later she meets Andy Raymonds, her classmate and her life adjustments ceaselessly. Andy is loopy about her. The director has wasted loads of screen time in unnecessary stuff reasonably than establishing the plot. Speaking about the movement of the story, a slow first half affords nothing a lot aside from some mindless moments and a Mod (twist) in the direction of the interval. Nonetheless, amid unusual circumstances she gets to know that the ‘sanki’ boy Andy Raymonds, whom she loves madly had died ten years back. Tanvi was given extra dialogues than required, but she introduced life to her character, whereas Raghuvir Yadav was a waste.Dialogues range between common to lame, whereas the music of the film doesn’t offer much price remembering aside from the track Tu Hello Tu.Nagesh Kukunoor’s Mod does not take you anywhere, so watch it only in case you are an Ayesha fan. It is a transparent case of trying to stuff multiple sub-plots and succeeding at none. One enjoys watching two different personalities falling for each other but it surely irritates when it would not move. Ayesha Takia is another good-factor that occurred to Mod. Inspired from a Taiwanese film, Holding Watch, Mod has an intriguing story line with well-deliberate and mysterious mods, however a weak script and poor execution took away all from it. He loves her to the extent that he doesn’t mind drowning his watch daily in order that he can get to fulfill Aranya. Mod is the story of Aranya Mahadeo (Ayesha Takia), a watchmaker and her seek for love. Speak about performances, Kukunoor’s favourite Ayesha Takia has executed a powerful job, but Dor still remains her most interesting performance. Rannvijay’s ticket to Bollywood labored! Starting with the great issues first, Ooty as the setting appears beautiful and Chitrantan Das’ cinematography has made it look all the more alluring and inviting. Why is he coming to her as Andy?
