The very presence of Aamir Khan carries lots of weight. His presence surely makes a big difference irrespective of the budget of a film but it doesn"t guarantee good collection. But Aamir keeps coming up with good films, thus giving good reason for film lovers to watch out for his films. And the good news is that his latest film Dhobi Ghat too has got good reviews from all quarters.
Popular film critic Taran Adarsh applauds the film for its content. “Dhobi Ghat is an imposing and vibrant cinematic portrait, appending itself to the new wave of independent Indian cinema which I am extremely pleased to applaud. It is art house cinema with European sensibilities, embellished with a well thought out story that's devoid of cliches. This ingenious motion picture caters more to the intelligentsia and connoisseurs of world cinema and will therefore garner more patronage and benefaction from the metropolitan audience in India chiefly and global spectators predominantly," he wrote.
Film critic Nikhat Kazmi describes Dhobi Ghat as “a compelling picture of urban angst that has become the hallmark of big city life". She is all praise for debutante director for making a film that is heavily imbued with mood and soul. “A lyrical ode to the modern malady - metro-eccentricity - Dhobi Ghat is intelligent and artistic cinema," she wrote in her review.
Kaveree Bamzai is of the opinion that Dhobi Ghat is like fresh air crowded Mumbai. “Some movies knock you out with a punch, others gently lay you down, soothe your fevered brow and lull you into a dream. Movies about Mumbai tend to do the former. But Kiran Rao's deeply personal Dhobi Ghat takes you by the hand, leads you to its doorstep and then leaves you to gawk, with pleasure," she wrote, adding, “Rao's film is like fresh air, as elusive in Mumbai's leaky chawls as in its smoky drawing rooms."
Well, going by the excellent reviews that film critics have showered, it looks like Dhobi Ghat will rock at the box office.
It is all about four people from very different backgrounds, whose worlds intersect and leave them forever altered. As they find themselves drawn into compelling relationships, the city finds its way into the crevices of their lives, separating them even as it brings them closer. It is directed by Kiran Rao and features Prateik Babbar, Aamir Khan and Monica Dogra in the lead roles.
