Review of Raincoat

Raincoat (2004)
9/10
Classic Rituporno, language no barrier
26 December 2004
Warning: Spoilers
Okay, this is not the best film which ever happened to Hindi cinema or even Rituporno Ghosh. But, this is perhaps the best Hindi movie of 2004 which was littered with rubbish like Main Hoon Na, Veer Zaara to some extent and others like Vaastu Shastra,etc.

The setting is perfect, the acting is powerful and -trademark Rituporno- dialogue based. Ajay Devgan speaks volumes through his eyes, Aishwarya is again at her best after Chokher Bali and the Sanjay Leela Bhansali films. The cinematography- a greenish hue- was interesting. The title was apt- it all comes down to a raincoat actually. All I can say that only the tiniest inspiration had beckoned Ghosh. The tiniest inspiration being the best short story by the best short story writer ever- no prizes for guessing right......!
