Review of Devdas

Devdas (I) (2002)
10/10
A classic.....of masses
15 July 2002
The joy-ride starts with all the glitter and shine of a Hollywood classic, it sails through the emotions and ends up at the death..so real and reality is the biggest plus of this great movie. Its loud in dialogues as the feudal society of early 20th century in India was and is not overpowered with emotions...as the people from that class should have been (expressive yet graceful). Technically it remains the best ever Indian film and one of the best around the world. Well done Bhansali. In acting Aish does wonders..Madhuri has shown why she is the queen of the bollywood and Shahrukh khan has reached where no Indian actor would have ever reached..I have seen Dilip sahab's Devdas too and bowing to the greatness of Dilip Sahab let me say,"Shahrukh did it better than him". Dialogues, sequences, frames, music and acting all there to give you a treat to watch..a movie in which one finds the glimpses of one's own life...beautiful yet so real, harsh and sad...
