Flavors

I was too bored one evening and so we went to the Indian movie store to watch a good masala movie.
As our luck would have it we had already exhausted their collection of new and old movies. So there was nothing left to watch & that’s when S noticed this movie “Flavors”

The movie takes a peek at the lives of different people and how they all come together. People of different kinds, different flavors is the concept of the movie.

First there ‘s a guy and a gal.. They are the best of friends…their conversations will make you smile…and you know for sure that this guy loves her. They are always talking to each other though they live miles apart and are technically only “friends” still. The way he cheers her up being so far away was sooo romantic and believable, not like our usual Hindi movies were the hero is actually at her doorstep the moment she is upset irrespective of where he lives. They way he turns jealous when she actually considers marrying another guy are all interesting and romantic.

Then there is this married to an IT guy and so single girl, getting completely bored in the US of A…since she’s stuck at home …but working at keeping herself busy and amused…am sure her character would strike a chord with most of the non-working married girls in the US.

Then there are these adorable parents from India visiting their son who is getting married to an American. Their apprehensions, the love that they share for each other, the way they try to fit into the culture that’s prevalent here are all taken out of day-to-day life instances.

There there’s the “Can I speak to Geetha” lover boy, who is in love with being in love.
Lots of instances taken out of our everyday lives, funny moments, chic dialogues, good editing, no over the top acting, down to earth portrayals..makes this one fun movie to be enjoyed by one and all.

They would all surely make you smile.
