Kapoor & Sons






Cast: Rishi Kapoor, Rajat Kapoor,Ratna Pathak, Fawad Khan,Sidharth Malhotra,Alia Bhatt,Sukant Goel(Wasim), Anuradha Chandan(Anu) and Fahim Shaikh(Boobly)
Director: Shakun Batra
Genre: Drama, Romance, Comedy




Its a light hearted family drama, and quite a relief from Bollywood when i almost lost hopes!




You may look forward to:
  • Fawad Khan is the character who plays the most significant role in the film. Pretty much similar to his 'Khoobsurat' caricature, Fawad as 'Rahul' is a responsible, happy and charming personality. He is the one who steals away the maximum limelight in the entire film
  • My next favorite role is that of Rishi Kapoor. This man can never fade away from Bollywood. Given the variety of roles that he can perform on, he is an entertainer till eternity! Love him every time he shows up on the screen! The most adorable character of this movie!
  • Rajat Kapoor and Ratna Pathak's roles will remind you of many aspects of a regular family. They portray their roles beautifully
  • Alia Bhatt displays her usual charm, being cute and apparently the only young female in the city of oldies, whom every guy wants to hit upon :D
  • Sukant Goel, Anuradha Chandan and Fahim Shaikh are in good supporting roles. The best of them all being that of 'Boobly' :D
  • The humor angle in the film is pretty entertaining which comprises most of the first half of the film. Shakun Batra does a commendable job in making this film enjoyable for the audience




What you can sleep over:

Sidharth Malhotra again fails to make a mark. You wont miss him if he is replaced by some other actor in this role. The one and only intense scene he has got in this film is while encountering his mom over stolen story of his novel, also was a completely screwed up one. His expressions just don't fit in right





The dampeners you should be aware of:
  • Alia Bhatt doesn't have any meat in her role. She is just there! She had the potential to add much more spice into the film
  • The second half of the film is drama over dose. Every family has certain secrets, but this was like family secret galore. The biggest sore of them all being that of the secret of Fawad Khan, just not done. He easily breaks many hearts among his female fans!




My Rating: 3/5

1- Poor  2-Average  3-Good  4-Very Good  5- Outstanding
