Mixed Doubles (2006/Hindi)

(4/5)

Love happens, love blossoms, love confirms (marriage), love is made (you know what), again, again…. once a week, once a while… at times… o oh! It all starts with a spark, becomes fire if there is enough spark and then it kinda dies out. Unless everything blends well, the charisma of married life phases out. That is what exactly the topic of the film. And this typical middle class comes up with a solution… let us swing babe….

Great dialogues, great acting and a pretty nice script… worth watching!

Indians always tend to follow other cultures, especially western (inherent inferiority complex or an everlasting lust for changes?). But we often forget that Indian marriage is like Indian curry. Indian curry is supposed to taste the best in the world, because of the right blend of salt (loyalty), spice (intimacy) and seasoning (commitment). I guess it is hard to find such a perfect mix elsewhere. But there is a saying… ‘grass always appear greener on the other side of the fence’ and to realize the value of what we have, we have to either loose it or see how much others desperately seek it..
