After long brain storming discussions upon the legalisation of gay marriages and the success of gay parades all over the world, it seems that the ‘awe’ of the denizens is gradually decreasing to ‘oh really!’ And is expected to reduce to just a ‘Hmm’ in future. So here’s what to talk for; a mainstream gay-themed film ‘Dostana’.
Celebrating Section 377 of the IPC that criminalises gay marriages India, ‘Dostana’ brings out a light, comic, playful mood before the audience through the movie. The movie has a subtle humour. It neither criticizes the gay world, nor tries to convince the audience about it. It just celebrates the gay status as it is in the present scenario, rather in a good humour.
The film primarily talks about two hot dudes Sam (Abhishek) and Kunal (John) who pretend to be a gay couple to acquire a house on rent which they had sought after much distress. They happen to share the apartment with Neha (Priyanka Chopra), who is the niece of the tenant. Eventually, they both fall in love with her but at the same time; struggle a lot to maintain their gay status. The climax comes when a third man, Abhimanyu Singh (Bobby Deol) creeps into her life. What happens after that is for the audience to discover.
The comic timing of the movie is perfect and it has an air of freshness to it. It does not stink of the copy pasted contexts from popular English movies and old Hindi cinema. The humour is not renovated but newly invented and you may call out ‘eureka’ after watching it.
Priyanka looks hot and happening on screen and John is unconditionally sizzling. Abhishek drives your nuts out with his fabulous acting. Abhi and John share an unbeatable chemistry and you may pop out of your seats in some scenes. So better carry your seatbelts with you...
As a whole, the movie is a full-time entertainment package which you can watch for a break out of your stressed out routine lifestyle, or to feed some spice to your fun-craving spirit.
