Synopsis

Do Aur Do Pyaar

Kavya Ganeshan, a dentist, and Aniruddh "Ani" Banerjee, an industrialist, have been married for twelve years. Although their marriage began as a love match, it has lost its vitality, and both have quietly pursued extramarital affairs—Kavya with Vikram, a successful photographer who moved from New York to Mumbai for her, and Aniruddh with Nora, a struggling theatre artist. Despite their emotional distance, the couple continues to live together, unable to confront the idea of separation. Following the death of Kavya's grandfather, the two travel together to Ooty for the funeral. Kavya is estranged from her conservative family due to having eloped with Aniruddh, and tensions remain high, especially with her father. Awaiting the arrival of Kavya's brother, Karthik, from Los Angeles, the family prepares for the final rites. During their stay, Kavya and Aniruddh visit a hotel from their dating days, rekindling old memories and rediscovering their chemistry. Their night of drinking and intimacy culminates in a misunderstanding when they are found making out near the body of Kavya's grandfather. After the funeral, they return to Mumbai and begin rekindling their physical and emotional connection. As they grow closer, they distance themselves from their respective partners. Suspicion arises when Vikram follows Kavya and witnesses Aniruddh at her apartment. Aniruddh later answers a call on Kavya's phone from a broker confirming an apartment booking in her and Vikram's name.

It also helps that Kavya and Ani are played by two of the best actors in the country, Vidya and Pratik. Brilliant casting, no doubt. The two bring to life the vulnerability and loneliness of a couple with sheer brilliance while showing us the other side of the coin, their goofiness with equal passion.

Shirsha Guha Thakurta's direction is simple. Though it's adapted from a foreign film, the director has Indianized the film beautifully. The four main characters and their flaws and strengths are etched out in a nuanced and real manner. She also succeeds in mirroring the realities and complexities of relationships and marriages. After a fine beginning, the film gets better in the Ooty episode. The Elephanta Hotel sequence is amusing and during the interval point, the director brings the house down.

★★★★★ ★★★★★ 2.5/5
So is it double the fun? It does spring to life intermittently, but I expected more: more feelings, more depth. A floundering marriage story is one of the oldest stories in the book, needing new insight into frailties and weaknesses and wounded egos. Here the cuts stay slight: how do two people not have the slightest idea that there is someone else in the equation, especially a couple, we are told in a sequence seemingly created for just such information to be imparted to us, has done the whole falling-in-love and running-away-with-each-other thing, and who presumably know each other inside out? We do get the backstory of the two people at the centre of the movie, and how they got together.
