Dev.D


Plot:
Dev who, after spurning Paro's love due to a misunderstanding, turns to drugs and vodka for solace. Paro moves on but Dev still is in remorse. He meets Chanda, a prostitute with problems of her own. Dev likes her but his penchant for self-destruction prevents him and Chanda from truly getting together. He also meets sleazy people like Chunni, Chanda's pimp who drags Dev further into self-destruction to further his own needs.
RD's view:
Considered as a modern Dev dass by many Dev D is the best Hindi movie i have ever seen, a signal that a new generation of bollywood has made its debut. Comparing it to Dev dass would be an insult to this movie is so many levels that i wont be able to list them. With an excellent story and awesome cinematography as well as excellent music Dev D is a beacon hope that bollywood is still able to make movies that can be called excellent. Not every one will be able to enjoy this movie but those who do will always remember it as a new breed of Hindi movies...........
I give it 4.5/5
