Review, Raat Gayi,Baat Gayi.

Cast: Rajat Kapoor, Neha Dhupia, Vinay Pathak

Well I have absolutely no idea how to start, as this is going to be my first review for a movie. So readers! Read it at your own risk.
The catchy tagline says,” It is one of those films where sex does matter”. And it completely sticks to its phrase. When I saw the trailer I assumed it to be something like Hangover, and at least for me I thought it would be quite predictable but after watching the movie I had a complete different perspective.

The movie revolves around these three couples and their relationship with their partners. Rahul(Rajat Kapoor) wakes up with a hangover, completely blank about the last night party he had attended. Only thing he remembers is him getting flirty with a mysterious babe. With the help of his friend he sets on a quest to figure out if he actually did anything naughty or not. The crux of the movies lies on the fact that, how well do we know ourselves, would you really go for something called a one night stand if situation around allows you to do so? The answer is “you really never know”. Every man is still trying to discover his own self. A man is never sure of himself. And maybe that’s why they say “men are dogs”.

But this movie also shows that women are not sati savitries either. Even they get tempted if the occasion calls for it, and even they are not sure and are still trying to discover themselves. As Mitali(Iravati Harshe) after so many years of marriage, regrets to choose her family over her career. Very effortlessly she blames her husband for leaving her alone with her college friend as her frustration enables her to get intimate with him.

Rajat Kapoor is brilliant as a suave husband, a loving father, a mad friend and flirty philander.
I could relate to each and every character in the film. Be it the goofy Amit (Vinay Pathak) who watches porn for some excitement in his life. Or the regular, high tempered emotional wife Nandini (Anu Menon), who throws her husband out of the house.

Dalip Tahil as the writer and the wannabe philosopher is great. The way he gives his point of view on “perspective” is quite interesting as somewhere deep inside his mind he was giving the justification for having a girlfriend almost half his age. His wife Jolly (Navneet Nishan) is the typical page 3 character and suits her role to T.

As a director/writer, Saurabh establishes the party scenes to be very convincing. The varied characters, some sloshed, some pompous, some peculiar, each having fun in their own way, these cameos made the film very candid with good humor.

The movie is very stylish, and smartly exudes the whole urban marriage picture. It has its own slow pace, but also keeps us speculating for larger part of the movie.
