HIGHWAY

A sweet lil' lady who just looks so gorgeous with simple sentences with profound emotions attached to them.
A robust fearless frowning man on rage. Doesnt smile. Doesnt let anybody smile either.

We dont have to walk in the same shoes as Veera(Alia Bhatt) or crap a movie just cause all you see are highways back and forth through the front of a small old truck driven by apna hawtness Hooda. 

A small window of a moving train and bang pops "Window Seat Films" living you filled with sudden gush of peace.

In the beginning,you tend to laugh on the sense of freedom the girl needs and her expressions on the same. She doesnt want to stop breathing till (click) she is abducted. Here, begins the journey of "In BONDAGE, She Found FREEDOM". 

As the story unfolds (contrary to the reviews I get from people stating "yaar koi story hi nahi hai"), it starts to delight the travel freaks with the the same sense of need of "some more" as initiated by Veera initially in the flick. The open roads, just the plain open highways, the salt factory at Sambhar, the valleys at Kashmir, Kaza Kalpa Tabo Rikangpio in Himachal Pradesh being the most splendid of all-they surely gave pure adrenaline rush. Atleast, I was left mesmerized to reality in the cinematography. Positive*

As it doesnt happen with most of the bollywood movies that they involve so much to perfection. Imtiaz Ali surely happened to touch the social taboos of India straight from that rage which poverty struck Hooda has (as he thinks about his mother succumbed to the flaws of society, that beautiful mother who is so traditionally clad on silence) or as tears roll from Veera's eyes as she subtly narrates the hurtful childhood memory of being physically abused again and again by her uncle that goes unheard by her own mother. The rich and the poor, the hidden truths and open hurt, silence of rage and loudness of silence, the women oppressed and men boiling inside, the need of feeling free from mental slavery, emotions-so much to feel elated to suddenly gasped. Negative*

There are moments that get you dumbstruck-when Hooda smiles the soul one time or when he is shot dead or when he breaks down emotionally in her arms, when Veera louds her anger filled in deep for years... .... 

Feelings of deep unexplained love, formations of unexplained relations and selfless splash to every depiction of human values surely touches the weak nerve even of a strong hearted. Thoughful*

There are moments which are part of thinking that everybody might have had but left undesired and deeply inculcated.

The end as "goli maarne wala bhi marta hai aur goli khane wala bhi". Reality*

Five days past that I have watched the movie and I still feel it thumping deep in the heart. As there is nobody who would sense it the way may be I have sensed or would express it in the manner I would connect to or I could actually narrate what I am feeling-I chose to write. Palpations* Something wrong with me*
