Faiz D @RT95588871 May 13, 2025 Zoya never disappoints! See more Suprateek A @suprateek Sep 1, 2023 I got to watch the Zoya Akhtar directorial Dil Dhadakne Do and I have a lot of thoughts regarding this film. Initially I kind of found it difficult to root for the characters but as the movie progressed I was rooting for them like hell. The characters are all flawed and I just loved it, my favorite character was Ayesha played superbly by Priyanka Chopra and the lovely dog Pluto Mehra! I personally loved how Ayesha's character was dealt with, her character had a lot of maturity, showcased a sense of genuine vulnerability and due to that we can't help feel bad for her throughout the film. Can I just say how much I despised Maanav? -played by Rahul Bose-and his mother?? I hated them so much that I just wished that they died. The narrator role in the initial minutes kinda pissed me off but when I found out that it was the dog I kind of liked it. As much as I liked the thoughts expressed through the dog, it kind of felt like lazy exposition which I didn't see it coming from a filmmaker like Zoya. But nevertheless I loved Pluto. I love how satirical this film got when it needed to because it lands really well and is hilarious too. Not to be sexist but considering the fact that the director was a woman she was able to express the pain that women go through while in a relationship really well. Coming to the performances oh boy! I loved all of them so much! Priyanka Chopra and Ranveer Singh were so believable as siblings and weren't too melodramatic. I think this was the first time that I actually liked a Ranveer Singh performance. Anil Kapoor and Shefali Shah are just so good in their roles, especially Shefali Shah with her big expressive eyes just won my heart. Rahul Bose for acting really well as an asshole and I genuinely hated him. Special mention to Aamir Khan for doing a brilliant job as the narrator/ Pluto because he won my heart with that. Finally, I feel like this film is very underrated and has entered my favorite feel good movies list.
