This is a commercial Bollywood movie , so people expecting artsy flavor should understand it is not catering to a select few for festivals.
I hope people rise above their hate for DP and come together to support a worthy cause.
No one wants to put down a worthy cause but when it is being directed by a credible and one of the best female directors of today in Bollywood, there are a lot of expectations that needs to be matched. It's not always about Deepika. It's about the film too. Neerja was a commercial film but did absolutely well without being loud. Same with Raazi. And Talvaar. And all of them were commercial successes so high time this forum stops the whole usual 'this is not a documentary- art film' rona dhona.
Deepika is there in the film to bring in the audience with her fanbase and stat power. So a director definitely doesn't have to compronise on her film language to make it more commercially viable when she has someone like Deepika headlining the project who is one of the biggest actresses in Bollywood right now.
Like zoinks pointed out, the whole feel of the movie looks like an outdated 90's style film from the treatment in the trailer and the fault here lies in the makers for presenting such a trailer because that's how you get excited about the film.
