Do Aur Do Pyaar was recently released in theatres. The film dives deep into the struggles couples face, both within marriage and when they decide to part ways.

A Complex Take on Romantic Relationships

Vidya Balan stars alongside Pratik Gandhi, Ileana D'Cruz, and Sendhil Ramamurthy. What works for Do Aur Do Pyaar is its refreshing take on relationships. Director Shirsha Guha Thakurta avoids cliches, opting instead for characters grappling with genuine issues. The film explores the lesser talked about themes in relationships, regarding renewing the spark in marriage and finding love beyond existing relationships. The movie humanises the characters, in a way that the audience understands their choices and empathises with their issues.

Here's what makes 'Do Aur Do Pyaar' a must-watch:

Protagonists' Steal the Show

Vidya Balan's exceptional performance is the heart and soul of the film. The audience will relate to the honest portrayal of marriage. Director Shrisha Guha Thakurta in her debut movie shows the many facets of a marriage gone wrong. While Vidya's character, Kavya screams at her husband Anirudh (Gandhi), the audience can sense the frustration and angst of a dying relationship. But the movie serves as a reminder that not all relationships are perfect fairytales. It's okay to fall in love, fall out of love or try to work on a marriage. That's the essence that Balan portrays in her character. As an unhappy wife stuck in a lacklustre marriage, she is honest and relatable to many women who face the boredom of being with their partners, but endure it all, silently.

Ileana D'cruz and Sendhil Ramamurthy are the 'other' people in the marriage. While the movie successfully shows them as individuals with passions, they are also catharsis of Kavya and Anirudh's love story.

Highly Relatable

Everyday relationship struggles are portrayed authentically, making viewers easily connect with the characters' situations. Relationships are a part of our everyday lives, especially one as close as marriage.

Emotional Depth

This helps the viewers to become more aware of self-love and the importance of prioritising one's own needs in a relationship.
