Parineeta review
Cons: The story lacks substance, I mean at the core its a small tale of misunderstanding with very trite rich and poor characters. Saif plays a good rich man who is at first more of musician than business man and after a temporary heart break becomes hard businessman till he succumbs to getting married and discovers truth of his previous 'Parineeta'. Sunjay Dutt plays a good down to earth rich guy falling for Lolita and completing the good ol love triangle.

Pros: Sets, depiction of era, depiction of traditions, songs, music ... in summary the "art" content of the movie is good. Vidya Balan does good job with her role. She looks stunning throughout the movie, portrays beautiful, smart, responsible middle class girl. The director succeeds in his aim to make the country (or atleast me :) fall for his 'Parineeta'. Oh ya the character of rich businessman Naveen Rai is played nicely by the character (don't know his name), he succeds in making the audience hate him.

6/10 on a level with intl movies . A notch up with respect to run-of-the-mill hindi movies.
