Synopsis: Unlike the English settings in the world class novel “Emma” by Jane Austen, Aisha is picturized in our very own country capital. This is not a movie of a hero avenging his parents’ death, or rescuing the much sought after heroines of the Hindi film industry. It is in fact a heroine centric movie where Sonam Kapoor appears her best. She comes across as Cupid personified, and aims to get two not so fortunate people together in a way of marriage. Her friends Pinky and Shefali do all but worship her, whereas Arjun always keeps telling Aisha to mind her own business. But, Aisha being Aisha does not pay heed to them, and continues to spend her father’s money as if it were plucking leaves from a tree. Her father’s credit card brought Aisha’s ‘unfortunates’ a make-over, based on which matches were found. This constitutes the initial half of the movie. The second half however is more towards the typical and predictable type of many Hindi movies; the heartbreaks, the realization of love and so on. And like most Bollywood movies, this too does not have any surprising finish.

Review: The glamour in the movie is the first thing that will hit the eye. The attires worn by all the actors involved are a treat to watch, and leaves many with only the wishful dream of affording such designer collection. Designer Kunal Rawal has done an outstanding job in making all look absolutely fab throughout the movie. Although, coming from Kunal it isn’t a surprise at all.

Apart from the glamour one must also pay attention to the slight details that have been cared for by the director Rajshree Ojha. He has mentioned that the original story and today’s Indian culture are quite similar in a way, and it was not difficult for him to adapt that here. He has however failed to hold the whole film in place as there are quite a few drops during the movie. What is called a short duration in the Bollywood movie context, 2 hours could have easily been shortened further. Even though it looks like bits from another famous story “Pride and Prejudice” have been included in the movie’s second half mostly, it could have done well without that too. However, being Rajshree’s first commercial movie he should be given a pat on the back for creating a successful ostentatious cinema. He has at the end of the day been able to bring out the best in the actors.

Although a depiction of a 200 year old classic, a Hindi movie, especially a romantic one is never complete without song and dance. The music director Amit Trivedi has given Aisha songs to lookout for and which have justified appearance; except for a peppy party song which comes towards the end of the movie. All the songs are enjoyable.

Cinematographer Diego Rodriguez has done a fine job in bringing out the best in the movie. Although the second half of the movie is not very appealing and drags in a few places, but Editor Sreekar Prasad could not have done anything better than what he has done.

The characters in the film are over shadowed by Aisha, which probably was the main objective, but, it is imperative that a few names be mentioned. The first names that come to mind would be Aisha’s friends Pinky played by Ira Dubey, and the “behenji” type girl Shefali played by Amrita Puri, who’s aim is to win the love of her life. Pinky’s character is the opposite of Shefali’s. She is the out-spoken and extrovert girl, whereas Shefali is one who has come to Delhi with hopes of marriage and family. Ira has proved in this flick that she has picked up traits of acting from her mother Lillete Dubey. Acting her part perfectly Ira aka Pinky has managed to steal many movie buff’s hearts. The second strike was made by Amrita aka Shefali. Being born and bred in Mumbai, it was a total makeover to the simple, Punjabi speaking small town girl in the movie. She has done more than justice to her role and could be the one to watch out for in the future. Abhay Deol, or Arjun as he is called in the movie has been seen doing non-stereotype roles till date. His roles have been powerful and acting superb. He has however not been given a chance to showcase his talent and has underperformed in the movie; and maybe for the better. Director Rajshree would not have wanted his lead to be overshadowed by this experienced actor. However, Abhay Deol has never looked better in a movie as he has in this. Good enough to make the female fans go gaga over him.

The overall reaction to the movie is a mixed one, and cannot be differentiated as a hit or a flop. To the soft hearts this movie is a definite appealing one, while the more practical viewers have a different comment. But, it can be safely said that Aisha is a movie which can be watched one weekend evening with your friends and family.
