In this week's Mollywood Retake, the movie under consideration is Shahrukh Khan and Alia Bhatt starrer Dear Zindagi.
Dear Zindagi, the popular Bollywood moviethat featured Alia Bhatt in the lead role along with Shahrukh Khan in a crucial role, was a film that emerged as a big success at the box office.
The film, directed by Gauri Shinde narrated the simple tale of a cinematographer named Kaira, played by Alia Bhatt, who goes through relationship problems in her life. It is then that Jehangir Khan, a psychiatrist, (Shahrukh Khan) enters the scene to help her sort out her problems.
In fact, Dear Zindagi was indeed different from the usual Bollywood dramas, which rely heavily on cinematic elements. This film, rallied on the performances of its lead characters and certain soulful moments. It was really a pleasure to watch Shahrukh Khan in a different role, which he nailed it with his performance.
