This movie slowly grows on you, if you watch it with open mind. Unlike many Hollywood movies, our Hindi movies do not spend too much time on character development and sometime you don't connect, especially during initial moments of the movie. Sure there are good supporting cast like Lisa Haydon but they do are intertwined appropriately with the story. It is a remarkable achievement for a commercial Hindi movie to do away with unnecessary supporting cast which ails most of our Indian movies in guise of comedy or family relationship melodramas. Four people, in love and there is no distraction of parents or bothers or sister or other relatives. It is more a commercial entertainer like "Silsila" or "JTHJ" but what is unique about ADHM is it only focuses on characters in love. It is also not a classy or realistic one – nowhere like say "Lootera" or "The Lunchbox" – two good romantic movies which are on par with Hollywood classics like "Before Sunrise" series or "Eternal Sunshine". Most songs are in set up in glitzy clubs from London to Vienna It is not "in your face" love story – sure it is shot with typical KJo brand of colorful rich upper class people – but it is definitely a love story of cerebral kind. And if you are past mid-30s you may not relate to the places where love "flows". ![]() ![]() ADHM is a wonderful movie for "romantics", especially those who have gone through unrequited love.
