Manmarziyaan: 50 Thoughts I Had While Watching Vicky, Abhishek & Taapsee’s Messy Love Story

Manmarziyaan: 50 Thoughts I Had While Watching Vicky, Abhishek & Taapsee’s Messy Love Story

Manmarziyaan is a twisted love story that brings out different shades of romance and relationship between three people. Directed by Anurag Kashyap, this film was different than any of the movies he has made and I was shocked. No head bashing, no gunshots and even hockey sticks are wielded rather than being an actual weapon.

 

The film is set in Punjab and follows two lovers, Rumi and Vicky played by Taapsee Pannu and Vicky Kaushal. After sneakily making out and sleeping with each other, Rumi’s family finds out about them and proposes that she gets married, but arranged by her family. Enters Robbie, played by Abhishek Bachchan, an NRI who is looking for a life partner and ends up falling for Rumi. The first half of the movie is super fun, packed with head-bobbing Punjabi and Hindi remix songs.

After the interval, it becomes a long-twisted love triangle, which felt like a never-ending drama. But, enough with the description, here are the exact thoughts that ran through my head while I watched Manmarziyaan.
