Lootera movie review: Ranveer, Sonakshi mesmerize in golden romance

Ratings-***1/2Star Cast: Sonakshi Sinha, Ranveer SinghMusic: Amit TrivediDirector: Vikramaditya MotwaneLove blossoms leisurely between the lead couple in the flick so marvellously that you never need to skip any frame by scrolling fast. The bygone era





Motwani has paid keen attention to the basic surroundings of the 50's to make us familiar to that era as much as possible. Be it the Billet proof cars or the old-manor or the attires worn by the actors or the radio transistors.

With the border so authentic the next module which is the trademark in Motwani's tale is the heroic affection which is innocently usual and claims a special accentuation. The shyness among Ranveer and Sonakshi melts frame by frame. The intensity, which has no place for wildness but just needs to be sensed, is affectionate.

The chunks build are wider to focus on the romance between the two. There is one scene where Sonakshi is counting her days with every falling leaf from a tree but Ranveer, fulfilling his last wish of becoming a painter, draws an artificial leaf and ties it with the branch. Truly delightful.

Much of the credit has to be given to cinematographer Mahendra J Shetty who makes the lensman capture and frame the brilliant settings masterfully. Like the first half, the post interval too is beautiful with snow-white winter breezing  through your mind.

The locales captured are picture-perfect and seem like painted.

Though we are aware of the heart wrenching closing moments but till then there's a lot of eye candy sights which  feature in this acceptable unhurried old-age romance saga which would never been accomplished without Sonakshi Sinha and Ranveer Singh, who come up a one of the most delightful couples.
