When I had first watched the
trailer of “Stree”, I was very much sure about its success. And now that film
has already crossed 100 crores, this review is not much effective but still I
would love talking about it as this is one of my favourite movies already. Any
movie starring Rajkumar Rao assures you as an audience that you will at least
won’t be disappointed if not impressed. And Stree is one of those movies which
will always be counted amongst his one of the best performances plus
commercially successful movie. Stree is in my knowledge, the first attempt
where the horror genre is blended with comedy and made into such a movie where
the audience laughs once in every 2 minutes. Before this, audience still
laughed while watching Bollywood’s horror movies but on the stupidity of the
story line and scenes.
The writing is very strong in the
movie which ensures that the audiences are keen to know the truth behind this
chudail who comes annually for four days during pooja and takes away one of the
males from the village except his clothing. The film does not focus only on
this by repeatedly showing run-and-chase scenes but spends much of the time in
backdrop of it and conversations between the characters about how to be safe
from the chudail etc. The strongest point in the movie is its dialogue. Every
dialogue made for you to laugh makes you laugh and made for you to think upon
makes you think with the characters.
Talking about the performances,
Rajkumar Rao is funnier than ever. The one scene that will always stay with you
is when he tries to imitate Shahrukh Khan when he is asked to be romantic in
front of the chudail. Similarly, there are many such scenes which are
memorable. Shraddha Kapoor, as a mysterious character, does a fine job with her
expressions and confused facial looks. Aparshakti Khurrana and Abhishek
Banerjee are also commendable as Rajkumar’s friends who makes you laugh with
their scared expressions. Pankaj Tripathi and other supporting actors are also
perfect in their roles and bring specifically what is expected from them on the
table. The music is not so great and there are no songs which will stay with
you once you are out of the theatre hall.
The first drawback of the movie
is its climax. The climax is very confusing and something which is not
explained very nicely which disappoints the audience. Either there is a sequel
coming or something like that for which the makers wanted it to be open for the
audiences to interpret but it wasn’t a perfect ending to the movie which was
winning the heart all through the first and the second half. Another drawback
of the movie is its preachiness about feminism regarding women are expected to
be respected and loved. Leave the above two points and Stree is one of the best
written movies released in recent times with a new concept altogether. I
remembered Golmaal 4 which released few months back trying to do the same while
writing this review and what an irritating output that was. Stree is Titanic in
comparison to that. Haha! I give Stree 3.5 stars out of 5.
Thanks.
