Brilliant and touching
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
After having a lot of sex they decided to take permission to marry...creepy!! Why they need to take permission for marriage then? If they are so obedient shouldn't they think about it before having sex?
Here come the movie with one from Chetan Bhgat's ink. I am bit confused whether to write the review of "2 states" the book or the movie. Both are look like identical twins to father Chetan Bhagat. Simplicity of Chetan's writing is shown in this movie. I consider it is a real story and very close to perfection. Arjun kapoor played Chetan is doing partial justice to the role,not complete because his copper hard hair not look like chetan's. Also Alia look as she was confident,smart but in some scenes she looks over confident. Watch her dialogs during canteen mess. There is also some flaws in story like AK is not able to buy car it shows how badly his employer Yes Bank pays,also size of cubicles of Yes bank is look like lower grade company. And count more a Economcs university toper needs tuition from an IIT chap. But chennai displayed in movie is good.Useless dialog of movie is Beer is banned in Gujarat because Gandhiji born in Gujarat and he is against alcohol.I mean come on writers plz do not treat us dumb. Even nursery class student will not excited on this dialog.In total one time watch movie either on big screen or Ur home screen. Watch if you like Chetan Bhagat and his writing.Thanks
It is so true until the couple is separate.. (I mean until they blaming each other) but after that writer just want to satisfy the spectator..naturally there are lot of couples have to suffer due to things not going in there favor,and mostly after that things go out of their control.. and be unhappy as well as helpless and hole life is suffer by memorizing their wonderful memories..It is very rare that, things go correct just like in the move.. it just for happy ending..and i really love the story.my one is more simile to this until the couple is separated. and i am hoping my one will end like this.. some western person might feels we are lucky to to bond this much in culture but it should be there but need not to extremes..(last lines just for minimum 10 lines) thanks..
2 states is based on Chetan Bhagat's bestseller '2 States:The Story Of My Marriage' which is his autobiographical novel.Here too romance is cross-cultured like most movies of Bollywood.Krish Malhotra(Arjun Kapoor) is a Punjabi from Delhi whereas Ananya(Alia Bhatt) is a Tamilian from Chennai . The movie starts with the narration of story by krish to pshyciatrist.They met in the campus of IIM Ahmedabad.Soon They became a close friend .They fell in love with each other .Director Abhishek Verman depicts the questions & imaginations arising in the mind of lovers & families.They both got high-income job after graduating from IIM & now wants to get married.They decided to bring their parents together & they made few arrangement for this but there is a cultural clash between their parents so parents oppose the weddings. Its hard for them to convince their parents for love marriage . Arjun & Alia both have attracted young audience with their stunning acting .Krish's mother(Amrita singh) has acted wonderfully to depicts a punjabi mother as well Ananya's mother(Revathy) too had played her role very well as tamilian mother .Krish's Father(Ronit roy) & Ananya's father(Shiv Kumar Subramaniam) , They too have impressed audience by their performance.Other characters like Krish'relatives too are very significant in the movie.Costume designing in every scene is done woderfully and locations of shooting is chosen carefully like IIMAcampus,Ahmedabad, Delhi and Chennai.Dialouge too are appropriate at each scene.Production designing is also done very well like campus placement scenes,marriage scenes in Delhi,marriage scenes in chennai & many others and music composed by Shanker Ehsaan Loy is fair . Director Abhishek makes a significant debut as a storyteller. It's a must watch movie.
