It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

This movie tell all the wrong things which barely happens in life.Movie shows a girl do wrong and later become prostitute, a boy is mischievous and parent send him London and he get even worse. Today parent never keeps their child in this way. And any child or person do not spoils himself like this. Too much shown in movie. It creates headache, its a s-h-i-t movie.

Insanity finds a new avatar in this celluloid flux that moves like a vagabond. Erratic from the word go, the most audacious display of characterization, brazen , bold, and in your face...from the rustic fields of Punjab, to the mean streets of Delhi with a detour to London and some snow-capped destination, this voyage of voyeurism is deftly told by Mr. Debonair director , Anurag Kashyap. The message comes in Vodka bottles, in smokes and fumes, and in graffiti drenched dark dingy rooms and sometime in pink papers.We have all hell breaking loose here...with a no holds barred , dare to bare,pervert look at the contemporary Devdas...complete with Paro , Chandramukhi and Chunni Lal!God Must Be Crazy ? Otherwise, Paro is not a damsel Chandramukhi is not just a hooker...and Chunni Lal is ain't no booker ?!And what about Devdas...the quintessential lover boy who looses it all in the bottle? Well, well, well....he is out there...a Punjabi munda on the rocks! He doesn't care a damn about love...what matters is whats on the platter...Groundbreaking Music (hikknaal, mahi menu, Pardesi ), earth shattering lyrics (Emotional Attaychar, Saali Khushi), Mindbending screenplay, Earthy cinematography and topnotch performances by Abhay Deol (Dev), Mahie Gill (Paro) and Chanda (Kalki Keochlin)....this is heady cocktail of modern sociology.Mind it....the flavor is strong. Incredibly Intoxicating!

at first i was reluctant to see this movie..donno why? but one day i thought of taking a chance and this movie just brilliant in all aspects.Mr.Anurag Kashyap is talented director & storyteller...believe it or not...but he's just admirable with this creation..though this movie is not liked by many...but those who saw this or about to see this there won't be any regrets..Bollywood is only known for its romance action and loads of songs.but GenX directors like Anurag Kashyap,Farahaan akhthar,Siddharth anand making Bollywood comparable with all other ___woods" in the world.and i wud be very thankful to Anurag Kashyap for Udaan & Dev D..keep directing Anurag.

Original piece based on contemporary issues and scandals. Covers lot of present stuff. This is modern devdas of 2009!. It has nice portray of all characters and played by most of them. Writer has taken concepts from various news-headlines and makes references to them in scenes too.Well, in Indian context the review is as follows: This is not a love story of 1960s anymore. The couple's breakoff is shown like any ordinary and real, then protagonist's emotional give up. Spoiler: He accepts the girl who is professional CSW, though she sleeps with many men. However, he couldn't accept the so-called homely girl, who had one sexual relationship in past! So true. Plot's flow is perfect, shown in three parts.I reduce my points on musical part of the movie. There are too much musical tracks in it. Well, the plot moves on during the tracks as well, but still. This brings lack of drama for characters. I quite dislike the movies, except they are "musical"( typical rom-com category with lot of tracks). May be this is done to add commercial value to the movie.
