MOVIE: Raincoat (2004) - Hindi
GENRE: Drama | Romance
Our Rating : 7/10 ( Good )
A very good movie from Rituparno Ghosh starring Ajay D and Aaishwarya Rai. Each scenes were so touching and gets you that feel into you. What if your Lost love comes back and haunts you , if you happen to see her again , what will be your reaction. What if you come to know she is in a deep trouble , will you still be able to help her out or Leave her in that Pit as a revenge. Answers are in the movie. Be it aish or Ajay. Both have beautifully performed their role well. Be it at the scene when she pretends to be a lady living a luxurious life or Ajay pretending to be a Producer for serial film maker is Damn Good. Annu Kapoor performance as a landlord was awesome. Sarcastic way of speach and his dialogue delivery matches to the film and he beautifully fits in though his role hardly plays 15 min in overall movie. Even his friends Wife Sameera Bobby acting was cool and her dialogues were so practical and soothing.
Sure this movie is a low budget one with hardly 10 characters overall in the film. But still Rituparno had brought a wonder out of it. A Must watch romantic movie .
PLOT:-
The story begins with unemployed Manu (Ajay Devgan), from Bhagalpur in search of money to finance his new business as he has lost his earlier job at a jute mill. On his quest, he visits Neeru (Aishwarya Rai) in Calcutta, to whom he was engaged six years ago. During the rainy evening, the couple reminisce about their former love and how each ended up in their current situation. Neeru pretends to lead a happy and prosperous life. She gestures to her former lover during various instances, particularly when the door bell rings and she persuades Manu not to open the door. They go on talking about their past and present with multiple flashbacks.
The raincoat comes to play when Neeru wears it to go out and fetch some food. The landlord (Annu Kapoor) speaks of the real situation of the household, and prompts Manu to give his borrowed money as rent for the house. Manu leaves a letter under the bed sheet explaining things. When Neeru returns he does not say anything about his encounter with her landlord. After some time Manu leaves. Later, when he puts his hand inside the pocket of his raincoat, he finds a pair of gold bangles that belonged to Neeru, along with a letter saying that she had a lot of money and he should have told her about his financial situation. She had actually read a letter that was inside the raincoat that informed her about Manu's condition.
