Atlast I watched Dor

Though this movie was telecasted for more than once in many TV channels, I only got to watch it yesterday. Actually I like watching movies directed by Nagesh Kukunoor. However, some of my friends told that ‘Dor’ was boring and that left me feeling that I should be skipping the movie. Though, I didn’t have the time to watch the movie as it was around 12.30 am when it started I hanged on to watch the movie. It was over at around 3.00 am.

May be my friends found it boring but I found the movie quite interesting. Whatever humorous content the movie had, was filmed with Shreyas Talpade on the scene. A normal movie goer who just wishes to watch entertainment will not understand the movie. The movie tells a sordid tale of what goes through a young widow’s mind; the self-conflict and the conflict with the society. Yes, certainly the movie was a women oriented movie but kudos to Kukunoor he brought out another dimension through which one should be viewing young widows.

May be commercially it was not a successful movie, I would like the content of the movie to be ranked on the likes of “Tare Zameen Par” movie.
