mazharusman Well, I have watched this movie yesterday and I am really disappointed. Firstly in doesn't happen like this in real life and also no one accept anyone like this. I got the idea of the movie plot from the name and there are may films on the same issue. I think there should be a movie which really guide to get rid of such situation rather to guide what happened in this movie. There should be some different concept like chukde India or like black. The movie makers should concentrate on how to take someone out of that market and struggle rather making a path for it. I am really disappointed and its a really waste of time of watching movie on same issue without any solution to it.
mohit_9390 It's somewhat original and not conventional so it is lovable….a story whose time has come. India is changing. Our social values are changing. Before we could digest live in relationships (read Salaam Namstey) comes another surprise from Yash Raj, in the form of Laga Chunri mein daag. Those who think that it is too premature or somewhat vulgar should look around for clues and then they will believe it. So is this movie about today's woman? The answer is Yes and No. Yes to the extent it is related to her and No because it's not just about her being a woman but it is also the way she would react to changing circumstances. This movie is not for the masses yet don't label it as an art movie. A small town girl whose father is going through survival issues and family disputes is repenting that he hasn't produced a boy. Rani, who comes to Bombay, to help her father financially, falls in a trap of big city. But the money that goes back to her town makes her father feel proud about her and he discovers that even a girl can be a great support like a boy would be for the parents. The story goes through many ups and downs. Rani's cute little sister discovers about her profession, but she reacts in a positive manner. I would dare to say that it is somewhat different than our traditional bollywood ways. I think this is the USP of this movie. After that Abhishek comes in her life and proposes to marry her. But to see what happens next you need to see the movie. The bollywood hero has evolved with Abhishek's response to Rani. The Yash Raj banner has evolved after producing the movie. The sister and mother has evolved after this movie. The Bharatiya nari has tremendously evolved with this movie. Now you decide whether you want to evolve or not. Watch this movie to see the changing maturity of Indian Cinema.
srz6 I can write a review for this movie in so few words that it will not even sound like a review. CRAP! Acting is brilliant from all the leading ladies. Guys have not much to do. This is where the good news ends. Its all downhill here on. The movie tries to portray that a girl, who wants to prove herself, and runs out of options, has nothing else to do, but turn to selling her body!! This is so demeaning, for women in general. And I am a guy, dunno what women feel about it. And also guys, in this situation, would do what? The movie could at least be set in another period, since this is not possible in current times. The songs are not good, and direction is average. People might be tempted to leave half way.
alexjos When I went for the movie I was skeptical as I heard a review that the movie was a regressive tear jerker. Which thankfully was DEFINITELY NOT TRUE. I wonder if the reviewer actually saw the movie.The story is about a benaras based family falling into hard times and Rani moving to mumbai to save the family from financial ruin.A family falling into bad times is certainly not a novel concept. What is refreshing is the story line, which is definitely modern and realistic and never one dimensional. Life in Benaras and Mumbai has been captured beautifully without a trace of cliché.The romance between Konkona and Kunaal is refreshing and so is the chemistry between Rani and Abhishek. The story line is sometimes sad but always realistic and upbeat.Acting and Direction is superb. Rani and Konkona are superb. Rani sizzles with her looks and acting. Konkona acting is superb. Kunal has shown he is much more that a pretty face. Abhishek role is short but he does a decent job. Jaya's acting is flawless.Kudos to the director/producer for choosing a difficult subject and handling it with great sensitivity.
