Aahista Aahista - Zzzhhh....

After a 200mph day at the office today I could not think of any other movie then Aahista Aahista to watch. If a movie title translates into "gradually" or "unhurried" then that is exactly the tempo I was looking for tonight.
Little did I know that in this case it also meant comatose. I have never witnessed so many breaks in one conversation. Meri matlab: One sentence. Pause. Another sentence. Frown. Pause. Gesture. Pause. Sad face. Pause. Now how´s thats for slow?

And then again, it is a sweet movie with endearing characters and wonderful unpretentious people you instantly like. And Dehli as wonderful backdrop on top of it.









Ankush is making a living by acting as witness at a marriage registrar office in Delhi. One day he meets Megha. Uski pas ek choti problem hai. She ran away from home to get married to Deeraj who just doesn´t show up. So the small town girl is all alone and totally broke in the big city. Ankush, being a nice guy, takes care of her and helps her getting a job and a place to live. And in return aahista aahista falls in love with the girl. But then after 2 months when everything looks bilkul accha Deeraj appears looking for Megha all of a sudden.









I have a new favorite Deol (apart from Dharmendra of course): Abhay. The cousin of Bobby and Sunny. He has huge *sigh* potential. You have to see it to believe it. And Soha Ali Khan is perfect for the sweet girl part. Perfectly unglamourous.









I just wished all of you would be able to read German. Marco´s review of Aahista Aahista is so dead on.
