Lol nostalgia always gets to us. I have never been a fan of the movie or Dola Re. It was too gaudy for me then and now its unbearable to watch for me even though Madhuri is my ultimate bias and I like Aishwarya too. But the OTT expressions of Aishwarya ruined it for me then, its almost was comical for me now. I wasn't the fan of the gaudiness in sets and dresses either. Madhuri and her expressions are to the point,so is her dancing, also Aishwarya seems to be dancing a bit faster than Madhuri. I love the fact that Madhuri gave such a awesome performance while being pregnant in real life.



So after Pinga released I just wanted to watch Dola re again. N my sentiments are same as they were when it released. I prefer the much toned down version of Pinga. PC and DP can never be as good as Madhuri when it comes to dancing. But I liked their dancing. I hate SLB's Devdas so anything is better than that for me. I like the subtly in DP and PC's expressions.



I cringe looking at Aishwarya's OTT expressions here. 😵 And in the starting of this song Aish's dance is so comical. Everything old isn't gold for me.

OMG it's been years since I watched this and I see what you're saying now!! Back when it came out, I just liked the song and didn't think too much of it, but now I see that Aishwarya looks really goofy here!! She is a good dancer, but her expressions are just 🤪. Madhuri was definitely more graceful, but now, I can't help noticing how old she looks. She looks very aunty-like here.


But still, overall, I like the Dola Re choreography much better than Pinga.

Its unfair to compare these two with madhuri and aish, both of whom have years of training and possibly degrees in classical dancing
Deepika and pc do not.
Also saroj's choreography was too heavy set. I quite like pinga


Deepika had training in Bharatnatyam.

Dola re is class apart, the song the movements the feeling of infective joy in that song makes you want to get up and dance. Pinga is much more dull, the song is really dissapointing, pc and dp were very good, but thats not enough given the quick quick choreography they were given,.Pc looks better as dp is styled horribly, and she looks more athletic than feminine, while pc looks very graceful. The song and feel of pinga is very local and wont appeal to everyone, while dola re was in a bengali background but appealed to everyone due to the lyrics and beat of the song, and powerhouse madhuri and aish complememnting her very well

Are you talking about this one? 😳 I think she played tribute to Madhuri in 2012! I loved her dances in this, she was bang on in potraying Madhuri except for Dola re which I didn't like much 😆 Maybe because Madhuri was so fabulous in Dola re that nothing could even close to paying tribute to her in that song!!

No Not this one.
When they had started in the film together.Lara and Pc did a tribute together.I think tht was her first stage performance.
I distinctly remember coz i am a huge Madhuri fan.

I don't think Deepika is struggling in anyway as some pointed it out.Pc is graceful so is Deepika.
I loved it.The more I watch it the more I love it.
This will be an awesome addition in my Dance class 😃

True that! 😆 Hes very theatrical and melodramatic! 😆
PC will shine in her role of Kashibai, she will steal the show I think.



Koi shak? 😆

Deepika looks so deadpan and mechanical in this movie 😕

Pinga the song just isn't catchy like Dola Re was. I liked Mastani Deewani so much more.
I wish the choreographer was someone else. Saroj or Vaibhavi, I wouldn't trust Remo with Indian dances honestly.

I think the comparisons will happen b/c it's a very similiar scenario and it's a SLB movie with 2 heroines as parallel leads and Devdas was the only one like that. So I'm sure they will compare the movie to JA as well b/c of the battle scenes. This stuff happens all the time.

Yup Exactly This!

I disliked Dola re coz of Aish. Couldn't stand her back when it released. No words for Madhuri. She and dance are synonyms. She nails them almost always.

Now PC and DP are no Madhuri in dance, yet I like their grace here. For me, Pinga stands firm on comparison with Dola re.
