While on vacation in Corsica, Ved and Tara meet and spend some fun time together not disclosing each others’ identities. They want a different story for themselves; not a routine one. Four years later, the two of them chance upon each other again but Tara realizes Ved has always been living a life he never really wanted to.
Director Imtiaz Ali’s ‘Tamasha’ is a love story at heart but mostly about any ordinary person living a humdrum life while there can be so much more to him/her. I have always loved the way Imtiaz tells his stories and this is no different. It makes a point on futile ambitions and being part of a rat race without understanding what one exactly wants in life. It’s about knowing who you actually are. It’s about chasing your dreams.
Post a few debacles, Ranbir Kapoor is back and how! What an amazing performance. The best I have seen this year so far and at par with the talented actor’s act in ‘Rockstar’ from the same director. Deepika Padukone doesn’t have a lot to do here but she is fantastic again. But ‘Tamasha’ is complex, uneven and definitely not for the masses.

A story well told and directed. Take a bow, Imtiaz Ali. This isn't his best but still a good watch.

About Abhirup Dhar
I don't watch movies... I live them! Let me introduce myself.
Abhirup Dhar was born in Kolkata and is still being brought up in India. A banker by profession, he is filmy to the core and is passionate about reviewing movies and writing. He likes to live on his own… he likes to be blunt, sarcastic, famous, infamous, confident, over-confident, moody at times… he likes to be himself. He is imperfect because perfection is boring.
His love for movies dates back to his childhood days when he studied in a boarding school. A three-month Winter Vacation every year… and he made sure he watched as many movies then. Parents thought it was a phase... he knew it was Passion and he knew it back then itself. The craziness to watch movies on the Big Screen began during the last two years of school when he literally bunked to town so that he could catch up with the new Hindi Movie releases. Some thought he was plain crazy. He confirmed it was Passion... yet again.
The hard fact is that not always can you walk a path you are passionate about. You have expectations to fulfill and Life to be made. But Life gives you chances and you have to grab them. So... here is he... your friendly critic who will be giving you his Verdict every week so that you can decide which release is worth your moolah and which is not!
