A film producer There is Kohli is back with another heartfelt review and this time it’s for Imtiaz Ali Partition’s lead drama, ‘Main Vaapas Aaunga’ which proved to be a phenomenal hit at the box office. The film has been praised by the audience and the industry for its acting and creativity, and Kohli’s latest review adds to the growing rap with the director by calling it Imtiaz Ali’s ‘best work yet’.
Kunal Kohli says ‘Main Vaapas Aaunga’ is Imtiaz Ali’s ‘best film’
Sharing a video on Instagram, Kunal Kohli explained how the film had an impact on him. He said, “I just saw ‘Main Vaapas Aaunga’ and the film left a deep impression on me. Anga bua (Aunt) and father used to talk about Partition and a lot of it was in the film. He talked about the dangers and the consequences. And of course, there were relatives who never talked about it, which is also shown in the film. The love story is innocent, pure and beautiful. This is Imtiaz’s best work. So beautifully he has shown love, the story behind it – the story was slow, things moved slowly. Today, news and information move very quickly. At that time, he had to go through this great process of division, knowing what happened to people, making decisions, not forgiving yourself or people not forgiving you at all. “Kohli went on to praise the script and the ensemble cast, saying, “The structure and layers that Imtiaz has brought to the film and his script. The performance of each character – how do you choose any other actor? Naseer, who has given the best performances in Indian cinema, has done the same. It would have been one of Naseer’s best works – which Rajat was Kabri or his best work. work, and surprisingly he has spoken about the separation in the family. Not all of us were Sooraj Barjatya type families. We all face problems in our families, things that you don’t forgive or understand your parents. And this is what Imtiaz and all the actors in the family produced. “
Kunal Kohli praises his players Naseeruddin Shah Rajat Kapoor, Diljit Dosanjh , Vedang Raina and Sharvari
Kohli went on to explain the team’s reaction, saying, “Rajat Kapoor took out his anger on his father and gradually he changed and tried to understand him. Also Diljit – what an actor; components that he brings to his work. Sharvari, Vedan – beautiful. Everyone has done a great job. “
Pictures that hit Kunal Kohli hard
Without revealing the major damage, Kohli revealed two real events that left his impression, one of which, he says, will stay with him like a dream. At the first show, he shared his family relationship so far, “One of the things that affected me the most – without spoilers – I heard another version that my uncle (aunt) and grandfather told me. The women on the train used to drink poison; when people came to attack, they took poison and killed themselves. But in this film, the way the events are shown by the grandfather, it really shakes you. This will give me nightmares; it hurts a lot.”In the second scene, about Diljit Dosanjh’s character meeting his father, Kohli said, “Another scene was when Diljit kept asking his father, ‘Tell us what happened to the women.’ And he says, ‘What you should remove from it is the hatred between two religions and two communities,’ and I don’t think that was the case. And there are many other conversations that are just thrown in at random but mean a lot. The film is definitely worth a second and third viewing. I will take my daughter – she is only 15 years old, but I want her to see the film and understand what happened. It still gave me the truth even though I heard these stories from my grandmother.”Kohli ended his comment with unreserved praise for the director, saying, “It is important that everyone watches this film, to understand the love and stories of that time. Imtiaz, hats off – love you, the film you have made. This is your best film.”
