Movie Review: Dono
Plot
Dono is a love story set at a lavish destination wedding in Thailand. The story follows Dev Saraf, a struggling entrepreneur, who attends the wedding of his childhood friend Alina. Along the way, he meets Meghna, a friend of the groom, and they form a strong bond. As they navigate their own personal heartbreaks, they support each other in overcoming their past and move on with the life.
Acting
The cast of Dono, comprised mostly of unknown actors, delivers decent performances. Rajveer Deol and Paloma Dhillon, in their debut roles, exude youthful charm and have great on-screen chemistry. Their performances are refreshing and bring authenticity to their characters. Rohan Khurana and Aditya Nanda also deliver solid performances in supporting roles.
Cinematography
The film is visually stunning, showcasing the beautiful locations of Thailand. The cinematography captures the vibrant colors, intricate costumes, and stunning landscapes, adding to the overall grandeur of the wedding setting. The visuals are a treat for the eyes and enhance the storytelling.
Direction
Avnish Barjatya, in his directorial debut, succeeds in delivering a bright and colorful wedding extravaganza. He brings a mix of modernity and tradition to the film, staying true to the Rajshri Productions legacy. Although the film follows a familiar wedding drama template, Barjatya infuses it with contemporary sensibilities and addresses relevant themes of relationships and individuality.
Conclusion
Dono is a warm and fuzzy love story that manages to be refreshing in the midst of edgier films. With its vibrant visuals, relatable characters, and engaging performances, it appeals to those who appreciate heartwarming narratives. However, the film may feel overstretched at times, and its scrappy screenplay leaves something to be desired. Overall, Dono is an enjoyable watch for those looking for a feel-good romantic film.
