Review: The Tenant – Only for Social Message 🎬
Arrey bhai log, suno suno! Aaj hum baat karne wale hain ek dum taza film ‘The Tenant’ ki, jisme lead role mein hai Shamita Shetty! 😍 After 15 years, she’s back on screen, aur kya comeback hai! Film ka setting hai Mumbai ki ek middle-class society mein, jaha Meera aka Sonia (played by Shetty) rehti hai. Society wale uski lifestyle se kuch zyada hi impressed nahi hain, lekin twist tab aata hai jab Bharat, ek young ladka, uski zindagi mein aata hai aur kahani mein ek new angle add hota hai (Wikipedia).
Kahaani Ka Spicy Tadka 🌶️
‘The Tenant’ is not just a film, it’s a social message wrapped in a story. Meera, jo ki society ke taane aur prejudice ka samna karti hai, becomes the eye of the storm. Par kya hai is storm ka reason? Bharat ke ek galti se Meera ki past life society walo ke samne aa jati hai, jisse woh aur bhi problems mein phas jaati hai【 (Wikipedia) This is where the film dives deep into themes of acceptance and change, pushing the audience to think beyond the obvious. Bharat’s family also sees a transformation, symbolizing societal shifts in perceptions and relationships【 (Wikipedia)
Performances That Shine ✨
Shamita Shetty ki acting ke toh kya kehne! She shines as Meera, bringing a complex character to life with nuance and strength. Uski screen presence se hi pata chalta hai ki she owns the role. Rudhraksh Jaiswal as Bharat also does a commendable job, showing the struggles of youth and friendship【 (Wikipedia) The other cast members, like Sheeba Chaddha and Swanand Kirkire, support the narrative with solid performances, making the social setting more relatable and impactful.
Magar Script Thodi Phisli 😬
While the movie aims high with its social themes and standout performances, some critics found the plot a bit unconvincing and the screenplay predictable at times. Certain plot points seem stretched, especially in the first half of the movie, which could test your patience【 (Wikipedia) However, the social message it conveys about feminism and societal hypocrisy is loud and clear, making it a film with a purpose, though it might not keep you glued to your seat for the wrong reasons【 (Wikipedia)
Toh, Dekhe Ya Nahi? 🎥
If you’re in for a film that challenges societal norms and offers some solid acting, ‘The Tenant’ might just be your weekend pick. Lekin agar aapko masala movies with fast-paced plots aur twist pe twist chahiye, then this might not hit the mark. Par ek baar dekh toh sakte hain for the social message and Shamita Shetty’s powerful comeback!
So, grab your popcorn 🍿 and maybe give it a shot! Who knows, ‘The Tenant’ might just surprise you with its depth and message. After all, har film se kuch naya seekhne ko toh milta hai, hai na? 😉
