The Girl on the Train review

‘The Girl on the Train” Review: PARINEETI CHOPRA, KIRTI KULHARI MAKE EARNEST EFFORTS TO RENDER JUSTICE TO THIS HINDI ADAPTATION

What Is the Story About?

Story: The once-lively lawyer Mila Kapoor (Parinetti Chopra) spiraled upward under the trauma of losing her child, her beloved husband, and a flourishing career...one high-risk case at a time. Well, an unfortunate car accident left her with a rare type of amnesia, and she eventually became a huge alcoholic, which also doesn't explain. However, I hope (read obsession) to climb back into her life as a woman. Mira frequented the train route from Red Bridge to Greenwich every day, and he admired the beautiful home and life of Nusrat John (Aditi Rao Haidari) who would later be called. However, this comfort is short-lived. Nusrat was found dead in the forest, and Mira’s digital footprint placed her at the crime scene.

                                                                             

Comment: In the opening sequence, a panting Mira kept looking at her shoulder, like a dark car-a favorite prop of a mysterious filmmaker-following her from the shopping mall to her and her Home of cardiologist partner Avinash Tiwary. "Don't take the case. Otherwise you will face consequences," the note dared to say, just a few seconds after Mira slammed the door shut, the note was thrown on the window. The fearless prosecutor dragged them to court and won. Reb Dasgupta's bombardment of the core characters not only proves Mira Kapoor's brilliant drama, but also forms a sharp contrast with her overall past. This lady knew this too, and it was mainly because of her obsession with her ex-husband—begging her to come back for a while, cursing for the next moment—until she found that Nusrat John was her next permanent object. "Much breathes favorite Galco Dehena Akhha Ragta Hein... Kisiki Life Ini Perfect Kath Hosakti Hein? Koy Itnahushkas Hosaktahayn? Mira muttered to herself. Mira is everything that Nusrat doesn’t have-madness, alcoholism and so-called violence. But don’t we all understand Is a perfect life a myth like Santa Claus on Christmas? Sure enough, when Mira and her psychiatrist Dr. Hamid (Torta Roy Chowdhury) were locked in a strong embrace She shattered the idea of ​​becoming an ideal woman. Two days later, Nusrat died and Mira was the main suspect. This Hindi-language adaptation of the British author Paula Hawkins’ first novel of the same name retains this psychological thriller The gloomy and gothic elements brought by the success of the film over the years.

                                                                              

The last time this mystery was made into a full-fledged feature film, British entertainment industry royalty Emily Brent had been nominated by BAFTA for this film. Needless to say, a Parinetti who could have saved money must be under tremendous pressure. The actress has always used her past performance to impress us. She groped in the first half of the story-screams, shouts and manic plots lacked sincerity. However, the heroine’s command of Mira’s behavior and the overall flow of the story gained momentum in the second half, and the climax-partly predictable if you stare-satisfies the audience's desire for a good murder mystery. , And checked most of the ingredients as a prerequisite for summoning.

Director Rib Dasgupta is not a newbie in the genre of psychological thrillers-his debut is "Michael" supported by Anurag Kashap-has toured the film festival as early as 2011. In addition, he has "Te3n" his credit. Obviously, with "Girl on the Train", the purpose is to add drama and stupid distortion to its much-discussed ending. He succeeded to a reasonable extent: we look forward to a big, high-octane end, this is a victorious Dasgupta. The protagonist taking on the job of the narrator may be a risky plunge to take, but hey! Here, what it does, what it intends to do: the story of rendering gravity, has been widely read and discussed. '

                                                                       

         

In the Ribhu version of GOTT, the parallel charter is also influential and has a seamless way to push the drawing line forward. First, as the top police officer of Scotland Yard, a turbaned Kilty Kohari is a spherical, non-nonsense incarnation: she brings faith to the role of the detective Baga. Similarly, Aditi Rao Haidari, in her short appearance, is all good and normal things, a respite from the otherwise dark and distorted world Kapoor or anyone. Avinash Tiwari is Mira’s ex-spouse, and it is also a bit of normal (or not) in her life. The actor, even in his second starring performance, showed a huge range as a victim and abuser.

                                                                                     

What’s different in The Girl on the Train

Many of the sternness and threats that are looming in the protagonist’s conflicting life come from the clothing and hairstyle department-you know, Cole's fringe eyes, Cole's smeared eyes, gray cardigan and black trench coat. Therefore, to the costume designers Sanan Ratansi and Subod Srivastava as well as Mua Fina Mehta, Pratap, Tripti Singh and Mitali Va Keir yelled loudly. Sunil Nigvikar builds this feeling of affection by building beautiful homes and lonely apartments side by side-juxtaposed as an ode to the darkness inside and outside. For nearly two hours, the editor of Sanjis Vargas was still tensed to the point. Well, give or take some. Gilad Benamram's movie music is frustrating because it disappears from the seriousness of the plot, especially in key scenes where the mood is high and the story is at its best. However, Chandan Sacsena's background score softened the blow: stirring when needed, and turning it down when not needed.

                                                                           

"The Girl on the Train" is a serious effort to rebuild what is considered a cult classic. The hard work of the entire cast and crew is obvious. A more unabashed approach—such as losing the love ballad and the record song—with sharper sniper tools, Bollywood could have made this appropriate answer to its Hollywood counterparts (directed by Tate Taylor ). We fear it is almost there, but it is not yet complete.

                                                                                 

"The Girl on the Train" starring Parinetti Chopra is on Netflix today. Reb Dasgupta’s director is a Hindi remake of the 2016 Hollywood movie Emily Brent. The original work is based on the best-selling novel of the same name by Paula Hawkins. Although this is Lieb's second outing with Netflix after "Blood Budd", it marks the digital debut of Parinetti. This psychological thriller also starred in Aditi Rao Haidari, Avinash Tiwari, Kirti Kulhari and others.

And Parinetti played Mira Kapoor (the Hollywood version saw Emily Brent play Rachel) and Aditi played Nusrat (originally Hayley Bennett as Megan). According to the original story, Mira suffers from amnesia and is an alcoholic. After an unfortunate incident, Nusrat (Aditi) was murdered and the evidence pointed to Mira. The only way out for Mira is that she needs to remember what happened that tragic night.

                                                                                   

Speaking of adapting the Hollywood script and the book to Indian audiences, Lieb told indianexpress.com, "There is an existing material, a novel, and a movie. Of course, the structure and basic materials are from there. But, we gave it. It’s our own color. Before I started writing the script, I knew the things that really worked and the parts that weren’t so important for the film. Since this is a Hindi film, we had to rewrite some parts, Give some elements the characters and write them very different. After all, you are an Indian consumer, so they are our top priority. Now, let’s look at people’s reactions, because some people have seen the original, among them Most of them don't, I think.
