“DEAR ZINDAGI”, a movie by Gauri Shinde released on 25th November 2016 is an average movie starring Alia Bhatt as a lead and Shahrukh Khan plays an extended cameo role. The movie is based on problems that a teenager goes through.
Kaira (Alia Bhatt) is an ambitious cinematographer who shoots small ads but wants to shoot an entire feature film. She has some lovely friends in her life. Kaira is also heartbroken because her love interest gets engaged to another woman. She lives in Mumbai on rent but soon her landlord turns her out of the apartment because she is single. Kaira is basically upset in her life because of these problems so she finally shifts to goa with her friend. Goa is her hometown where her family stays still she stay with her friend because she shares a tense relationship with her family. Kaira spends several sleepless nights until she met Dr Jehangir Khan(SHAHRUKH KHAN), who is a psychologist. Jug aka Jehangir is an unconventional thinker, whose way of treatment is different than others. Jehangir through his inspiring stories helps Kaira to gain a new perspective on life.
Shahrukh Khan is as always awesome in this movie as a psychologist. I’m a huge fan of his excellence in acting. Alia Bhatt too proved herself as an actress that she is versatile by doing this serious role, unlike her other bubbly roles.
Gauri Shinde on the other hand again unfolds her excellence by presenting a professionally strong female protagonist.
It’s not always necessary to have hot steamy scenes in film sometimes the quality of the message is important. Everyone goes through ups and downs in life but one should be strong enough to handle it calmly and smile at life instead of complaining.
“DEAR ZINDAGI” is a good movie; everyone should watch it at least once, especially teenagers.
