'Ram-Leela' - Bhansali's Genious Explodes On Screen

Fire and blood are never far away from Bhansali's vision. Though there is plenty of bloodied images in "Ram-leela", the fire this time rages in the eyes of the characters.

The film's visual poetry is so eloquent that you wonder at times if the filmmaker is a closet-painter. A closet-musician, Bhansali certainly is. His self-composed songs assisted by Monty Sharma's evocative background score, perfectly capture the film's impetuous mood.

The actors do the rest. Every performer surrenders to the tempestuous saga. While Supriya Pathak leads the supporting cast with a stellar performance, Richa Chadda, Abhimanyu Singh, Gulshan Devaiah and Sharad Kelkar are the portrait of pitch-perfect emoting.

As for the Ranveer-Deepika pair, I finally know what on-screen chemistry means. Their frankly erotic togetherness is comparable with Raj Kapoor and Nargis in "Awara".

"Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-leela" is the most vital romantic musical in the last five years. To experience it is to serenade the divine. To miss it would be a crime.
