2 States Review

Directed by Abhishek Varman 2 states was a average movie for me. I've read 2 states novel by Chetan Bhagat, from which the movie was adapted. And if i compare it with novel it was a less entertaining version of it.

If you haven't read 2 states then you'll may find it a good movie.

Story undoubtedly is the best part. However, some part of the novel has been deducted. The movie must have been a cake make for the director as the scenes are a ditto copy of the novel. Screenplay was average, script unimpressive, dialogues copied, i found nothing new i can praise of.

The only person happy with the movie must be Chetan Bhagat.

Best part were the songs. Arijit singh and Benny Dayal's hit tracks did a impressive promotion for the movie. Uffo and Locha-e-Ulfat were hit even before the release.

When it comes to acting it was average. Rohit Roy as Krish's father was the only actor i could see. Arjun Kapoor, keeping in mind that he's a beginner did a very good jod. Amrita Singh also did a pretty nice job as a typical punjabi mother. Alia Bhatt was a hell. South Indian parents did great, although.

In India, love stories are really praised. And movies like DDLJ had already set a standard. Therefore, creating anything of that level is a really difficult task.

All in all 2 states is decent movie. Must be watched at least once. Not a multiple watch.

I'll give it a 3.
