Rang Rasiya – Movie Preview
More than a century ago, a painter dared to defy the convention and was condemned for doing so. Ketan Mehta’s film Rang Rasiya tells the story of Raja Ravi Verma and his muse Sugandha.
The movie stars Randeep Hooda and Nandana Sen in respective roles.
PORTRAIT OF THE PAINTER
Born in an aristocratic family of Travancore, Ravi Varma was a child prodigy. Acknowledged as the father of Modern Indian Art, he evolved a unique painting style merging the traditional Indian style of painting with the European classic realism. He was the first to give a face to Hindu Gods and Goddesses by creating their realistic images.
His paintings based on stories from Indian mythology and classic literature created a pan Indian iconography which became the basis of an Indian identity.
He is acknowledged as the father of modern Indian art and the originator of what is called ‘Calendar Art’.
India – end of the 19th century. The famous artist Raja Ravi Varma is arrested and charged with obscenity, immorality and hurting religious sentiments of the people. His offence – painting of Indian mythological characters.
A court session begins…
Woven with the case is the classic love story of the artist and his muse – Sugandha. Together they create the most amazing works of art. Her beauty inspires him to create exquisite paintings based on themes from Indian mythology and classic literature. She becomes his muse, his inspiration…his love.
The film is a tale of Raja Ravi Varma’s passions, his obsessions and his fierce struggle for creative freedom.
‘Rang Rasiya’ has screenplay and direction by Ketan Mehta . The music is given by Sandesh Shandiliya. The supporting cast includes Paresh Rawal , Darshan Jariwala , Sachin Khedekar, Tom Alter, Jim Boeven and Rajat Kapoor .

Bachna Ae Haseeno Review
Cast: Ranbir Kapoor, Bipasha Basu, Deepika Padukone, Minissha Lamba;
Director: Siddharth Anand;
The guy breaks heart of first 2 girls so badly and he never realizes it until his third girlfriend breaks his heart and makes him suffer the pain associated with a spilt up.
The movie starts with a guy going back to his flashback and taking us to Switzerland where he had fallen in love for the first time (with Minnisha Lamba). The director had tried very hard to show us that it was actually 1996 but somehow it feels, the actors looked lot older than those 18 year olds.
2nd story takes place in 2002, with Bipasha Basu. The guy is shown working for Microsoft's gaming section. Okay, now here the guy looks younger whereas Bipasha looks older. It is a kind of mismatch but here, there are few comedy scenes and the performance looks much real. Especially, Bipasha has really done a wonderful job.
Now, year 2007, the guy is in Sydney where he meets Deepika Padukone. There is indeed some kind of spark between Ranbir and Deepika. Maybe being a real life couple has helped them to showcase a beautiful chemistry on the celluloid. Deepika certainly has done justice with her character.
The movie seems quite ok in the first half but as it reaches interval, the whole movie becomes very predictable. The second half is emotional and a bit too long. The execution of the script by the director especially in the second half could have been better. The editing too could have been much crisper. As expected by the Yashraj productions, the music is superb, especially two songs, the classic Bachna Ae Haseeno and Khuda Jaane, really stand out. The cinematography is fantastic; the locales of Australia and Italy have been beautifully captured.On the acting front, Ranbir looks pretty good though he was kind of over the board in first story but overall he has done a good job. Minnisha again goes overboard like Ranbir in first story but later it is all good. Bipasha despite of looking bit older in front of Ranbir is the best of the lot. Deepika too is good. Actually, she did not have much to do.
The movie could have been made much better, in terms of execution, story et al. The concept of 1 guy falling in love with 3 girls is great but the way it is turned out is bad. They could have made it thorough romantic comedy flick rather than adding some drama and all.
So, overall, it seems that the movie would do good business. It may be liked by few while few might not like it. It should get mixed reactions.
