just
put
it
out

Dil
Dhadakne
Do
is
one
awesome
entertainer
that
will
keep

till
the

The
story
basically
revolves
around
the
Mehra
family.
A
dysfunctional
family
helmed
by
Kamal
(Anil
Kapoor)
whose
family
business
is
going
under
huge
loss
and
in
order
to
raise
public
credibility
in
his
company
AiKa,
he
and
his
wife,
Neelam
(Shefali)
organize
a
cruise
trip
and
invite
all
their
rich
buddies.
Their
daughter,
Ayesha
(Priyanka
Chopra)
who
runs
a
successful
company,
an
online
travel
portal,
organizes
the
whole
trip
but
is
not
given
credit
for
by
her
parents.
Their
son,
Kabir
(Ranveer
Singh)
wants
to
be
a
pilot
but
the
bossy
parents
insist
he
take
over
the
family
business.
On
the
cruise
trip,
Kabir
comes
across
Farah
(Anushka
Sharma)
and
they
fall
in
love
at
first
sight.
While
love
is
blossoming
here,
Ayesha
realizes
that
she
has
no
feelings
for
her
hubby
Manav
(Rahul
Bose)
and
wants
to
divorce
him.
She
is
featured
in
the
list
of
Top
10
Entrepreneurs
in
Forbes
magazine,
in
an
attempt
to
make
her
own
name,
she
wants
to
come
out
of
the
insufferable
marriage.
At
such
an
odd
time
enters,
Ayesha's
hot
ex,
Sunny
(Farhan
Akhtar)
who
joins
the
cruise
trip.
Kamal
wants
Kabir
to
marry
Noorie
so
her
father
can
invest
in
his
sinking
business,
meanwhile
Noorie
is
in
love
with
Kamal's
enemy's
son,
Rana.
Ayesha
wants
divorce
from
Manav,
but
he
is
not
letting
go.
Kabir
loves
a
dancer
on
the
ship,
but
family
disapproves.
Kamal
is
having
extra
marital
affairs
while
Neelam
is
having
weight
issues.
So
with
so
much
of
drama
happening
in
one
family,
how
will
the
Mediterranean
cruise
ride
be
like?
You'll
have
to
watch
the
movie
to
know!
Performances:
Anil
Kapoor
steers
the
wheel
of
this
cruise
movie
with
his
bossy
attitude
while
Shefali
does
a
great
job
being
the
cold
hearted
mother
to
Ranveer
and
Priyanka.
Coming
to
the
youngsters
on
board,
Ranveer
does
a
fab
job
in
essaying
this
daring
but
vulnerable
character
and
walks
away
with
the
most
applauses.
But
it
is
Shefali
and
Anil
who
are
simply
fabulous
in
their
respective
roles
which
probably
no
other
actor
could
have
done.
Farhan
looks
smoldering
enough
to
convince
us,
his
and
Priyanka's
karmic
attraction.
Anushka
who
supposed
to
be
British
has
an
Indian
accent,
meanwhile
business
savvy
Priyanka
who
does
a
fab
job
in
essaying
the
role
of
a
strong
businesswoman
suffering
a
marriage
with
a
pompous
husband
fails
to
get
rid
of
her
American
accent
(Considering
she
is
an
Indian
in
the
movie,
American
accent
doesn't
help).
Needless
to
say,
Rahul
Bose
has
given
a
note
worthy
performance.
He
may
have
a
very
small
role
compared
to
the
rest
of
the
cast
but
manages
to
stand
apart.
Technical
Aspects:
Zoya
Akhtar
is
a
brilliant
director
who
knows
her
job
well,
as
expected
she
has
done
a
fab
job
in
executing
of
such
a
dysfunctional
family.
Story
gets
predictable
but
you
can't
pick
a
flaw
in
her
direction.
The
fact
that
the
movie
is
shot
on
a
cruise
amidst
picturesque
background,
everything
looks
just
picture
perfect.
The
songs
composed
by
Shankar
Ehsaan
Loy
are
in
sync
with
the
theme
of
the
movie.
It
is
extremely
beautiful,
they
are
not
instantly
addictive
but
over
the
period
you
grow
into
them.
The
only
flaw
would
be
the
long
duration
of
the
movie
and
the
dragged
love
story
of
Kabir
and
Farah.
Verdict:
This
high
society
family
drama
where
there
is
no
place
for
emotions
is
super
entertaining
and
is
a
must
watch.
A
high
energy
movie
that
should
not
be
missed,
so
book
your
tickets
fast!
