The anger, the love, the guilt, the passion, the pride, simply a WOW. I was skeptical about Malhari but it fits perfectly fine. Looks, body language, Maratha accent, physical strength in the war scenes. Star Performances: Ranveer Singh as the Peshwa Bajirao Ballad.- He is unbelievably good. I will just say that it is surely a love- triangle but one with a big difference. You really are! The story of the film, I'll leave it for you to catch. The introductory portions in which they narrate the Peshwa's conquests using semi- animation/CGI were brilliantly performed. So, technically, the film is far superior than any Hindi movie I have seen in the last decade or so. The album is a beautiful blend of Marathi folk and Persian/Muslim influences. As for the music, the album has 10 tracks and SLB as the music director has done a magnificent job. There are many lines you will take home: the 'Guroor' one is pure cinematic and the 'Cheete ki chaal.' is beautifully written and used cleverly. Very few films get you hooked up by its dialogues and Bajirao Mastani is one of them. First time a movie from Indian has excelled in such scenes. The action and the wars are new in Bollywood. It is soothingly melodious in romantic scenes while explosive in war scenes. The background score is the "cherries on the cake". Applause! The cinematography is par excellence. Every color that was picked for the costumes reflected a mood in addition to visual appeal. Yes, they have rendered their imagination into a visual bonanza indeed. The costumes, before describing, I would love to salute Anju Modi (costume designer) and Sanjay's vision of the past. The sets and art direction are so well crafted, huge and super grand. From the very opening credits, you know that you are going to travel into a divine universe unraveling the 500 years ago's history (the 1700's). Each and every frames are picture-perfect shots. And that can be large attributed to the visual aesthetics. Enthralling from beginning to end, the movie doesn't contain a single boring moment which is a huge plus point for its genre which can often be cumbersome and boring. The Story, Overview and Music: Sanjay Leela Bhansali is back with his 12 years old dream he nurtured like a baby titled as 'Bajirao Mastani', which is Bollywood's magnum opus and a reply to Tollywood's Bahubaali.
