I went with my man to see Devdas this evening. 3 solid hours (well, not really solid, there's an intermission halfway through) of Bollywood's finest. And I mean that. The set are gorgeous, as are the outfits. The singing and dancing and music are beautiful. The acting ... well, I don't think people go to see movies like this for the acting. There were so many crying scenes I thought I was watching a Demi Moore film. But my point is this: I have now watched enough of these movies to actually start enjoying the musical scenes. Which is surprising, given how cheesy I used to consider them. Not that they're not cheesy, it's just that that's not the focus of my attention when I'm watching them.
In any case, if you're at all sensitive, bring tissue when you go to see this one. I heard quite a few sniffles in the audience towards the end there.
