Taal review
'Taal' A Beautiful Blend of Love and MusicBy Ajay ChaturvediFilm critic, ApunKaChoice.Com Taal is promoted as a musical love story. Its a triangular love story at that. It’s main highlight is Aishwariya Rai’s beauty & acting and A R Rahman’s music. Taal has the eternal love triangle involving Mansi (Aishwarya Rai), Manav (Akshaye Khanna) and Vikrant (Anil Kapoor). Mansi, from Chamba in Himachal Pradesh, is the daughter of a village folk singer and dancer. Manav is the son of a businessman who comes to Chamba to buy some land. He falls in love with the place -- and Mansi. He promises her marriage and goes back to the city telling himself that love is faith and other things in the same vein. But Manav's foreign-bred aunt creates trouble and the lovers are separated. Mansi meets Vikrant Kapur who is a loud, flashy music director who also happens to own a music company. Vikrant’s eyes light up on seeing Mansi and he assures her she is star material. He makes her a star and falls for her in the process. Taal is shot beautifully and all the actors are made to look excellent. The locales in Himachal Pradesh are breathtaking. But the story is not all that original. Aishwarya seems to be developing into a fine actress. She looks beautiful in a quite sober and soft role. Though she looks pained and tragic in most of the film, she does a good job of a woman who is very protective of her father and one who doesn't think twice before rejecting a lover who has insulted her father. Ghai’s style shows through despite his effort to maintain a very north Indian flavour. And it is in the picturisation that his songs actually gain in value. They tend to grow on you thereafter. The music of Taal is doing extremely well. There are 12 songs in the film. Ghai has once again made his songs a treat for the eyes. Ramta Jogi may well have the audience on their feet.
