Stree.. Though the title gives the impression of a serious film,
it's anything but that..... a comedy with a dash of horror in it or
vice-versa...you take your pick........Either way, this is a delightful little
hindi film and it is, to quote my favourite reviewer Rajeev Masand, one
of the most original films of the year.......... about a lady ghost who
torments a town in northern India every year during navaratri festival and
abducts men, leaving only their clothes behind and how few town folks fight it.......but the plot is a mere subtext....This film is about an
assortment of interesting characters and how, brilliant actors like Rajkumar
Rao and Pankaj Tripathi, bring to life everyday scenes and dialogues and take
it to a different level.....watch the scene where Rajkumar has to look at the
ghost with love or when Tripathi tries to run away while pretending to be
brave........Shraddha Kapoor looks pretty and does a decent job while being at
it..... the peppy soundtrack is good while it lasts...not intrusive and not
memorable........All in all, this is a stree you should take time out to watch
and for once, the ladies won't be offended with your transgression.
