Watchin Movies... college style

Another Saturday went by and we friends were like a bunch of movie hungry college students. It was after a gap of 3-4 years that we saw back to back movie in theatre. 1st it was “Luck-By-Chance” and then “Dev-D”. And we enjoyed both.

One was a light hearted motivational flick about a struggling actor who made it big because of his luck, timely flattery and open going nature. My verdict: 3.0 out of 5.

The other one was a contemporary version (not exact remake) of the renowned “Devdas”. It’s like Devdas has traveled from the era of early 20th century to the 21st but his life remains similar. Just that now he isn’t ambivalent in the end and comes out of the dreaded life to avoid the tragedy. Out of the box story writing, direction, music and choreography. My verdict: 3.5 out of 5.
