A daring attempt by Imtiaz, a glorious showcase of India (better than any Incredible India campaign) and a superlative performance by Alia Bhatt makes Highway a must-watch.

It breaks your heart when you hear the sound of the gun pierce the tranquil and peace of the surrounding. You almost hear a silent tear roll down as we watch with bated breath. ..

My review of Highway (2014) by bangreaayushi
jyothimathur, 9 years agoThe bride is the real show stealer!The film is an ambitious piece of work. The film’s director, Imtiaz Ali has given something more promising and more going throwing the way. The film opens up like this: Veera (Alia Bhatt) convincing her fiancée to take her away from her place. She is the bride to be and she wants some peace outside her place. So, her fiancée takes her out on a highway for a long drive. When they stop at a gas station, the bride is kidnapped by few ‘dakkus’ (who are her abductors). When the gang comes to know about her family background, they decide to take ransom amount from her family. So, the gang’s leader Mahabir decides to take Veera along with him. He sets out with her and there starts the journey of romance between Mahabir and Veera. He takes Veera with him in many parts of India. Initially, Veera has hatred for Mahabir, but slowly she comes to know of his soft heart and therefore, she starts falling for him. Somewhere Mahabir also falls for Veera but he knows about her family background and her life. So he ensures that she should live her life to the fullest and decides to take her to Shimla where she is willing to stay in. The duo spends a night together but on the same day, the police officers find Veera and they shoot Mahabir. After Mahabir gets shot, Veera takes him to the hospital. Then after Veera gets back to her place, she realizes her love for Mahabir and confesses her family about the sexual assault that had happened with her by one of her Uncle since childhood. She decides to quit her family and relocates to a different place. The film is very impressive with a good direction from Imtiaz Ali. He is one of the best directors in the industry who knows to extract the best from his lead characters. Alia’s acting performance in this film was indeed splendid. Randeep Hooda is always great to watch. He nurtures himself in the types of roles he is given. Even in this film, his role as an abductor was worth appreciating. Talking about the music composer, A.R.Rahman we have no right to judge his abilities. He is so finite with his musical qualities that he makes you forget everything. He is one of the most promising music composers from the industry. His songs gave a very soothing polish to the film. The locations Imtiaz chose to shoot have very beautifully captured in the lens. The movie makes you forget everything that is going all around you. It has everything in perfection. The dress designers too have proved their abilities to make Alia as stunning as possible. Audiences will surely like her appearance with a ‘pagdi’ on her head. She is simply fun to watch. -
