5.0 out of 5 stars
Very good movie, different from others Bollywood movie,

This review is from: Chokher Bali (DVD)
This movie has a very good history. The acting by Aishwarya Rai and others characters is just fine. Aishwarya Rai is such a beautiful and sensitive woman that it's heartbreaking seeing two men refusing a marriage proposition with her. After these refusals she got married but she is widowed after a year. For that reason, she's being ostracized by the society and even if she's very well educated and stunningly gorgeous, she can't get married again. I am not an Indian, and I don't know a lot about this particular condition in the old India. I've seen another movie on the same theme. It's called Water and it is directed by Deepa Mehta. Her movie also depicts the miserable life of the widows but to an extent much worse than in this movie. Those who don't like films with singing and dancing will be happy since there's none in this one. Personally I like this stuff, but Choker Bali is the kind of movie not suited for that.

Ashwariya just wasn't the right actress for this role. As much as I enjoy her acting and dancing, she just wasn't believable as the "down on her luck vamp" she portrays in Chokher Bali.
