I loved Kapoor and Sons, easily one of the best movies I have seen in recent times.. it was so realistic and simple and it made you laugh and cry at the same time! Rishi was incredibly funny, Fawad Khan stole the show and Alia Bhatt did amazing in whatever few scenes she had!
Some scenes which stood out: (spoilers)
- Alia Bhatt's breakdown. This was the first scene I cried, she was so good that I became all emotional in one second. I think everyone who does not have parents could relate to her when she said 'please come back, I miss you.' She really owned this scene, the fact that SHE was the one who made me cry instantly says so much about her acting power!
- When Fawad Khan stops at Anu's house and finds his father there. His expressions when he walks out, I could totally feel for him, he was SO good in that scene!
- The family scene when they are all together and start singing and dancing. That was such a lovely moment which really stays with you after the movie.
There were so many other scenes which were so funny, like with the plumber, or Boobli, or the Fawad-Alia scenes and especially Rishi with his I-papad was hilarious.
It was shocking when Rajat died, I thought Rishi would die in the end. And I didn't expect the gay angle. I really thought it would be a love triangle, and I was really hoping that Alia would end up with Fawad. I also did not expect that Rajat really was cheating on Ratna. So thats what I also loved about this movie, that it was unpredictable and totally the opposite of what I expected.
Got to say that Siddharth was SO bad in that confrontation scene with his mom. It was cringeworthy when he was yelling at his mom, he was so afwul, he really should work on the emotional scenes. Except for that scene, he was decent and yummy to look at.
Still Fawad deserves a second mention as for me he was the highlight of the whole movie, ohmygod WHAT ACTING! So effortless, so natural, I can't explain how good he was. Can't wait to see him in another movie!
