Have a look!
Arjun Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor’s perfect chemistry
Shraddha Kapoor has been paired with the top actors of the generation, viz. Shahid Kapoor, Tiger Shroff, Varun Dhawan, to name a few. However, none of these could match her exceptionally romantic chemistry with her ‘Aashiqui 2’ co-star Aditya Roy Kapur. However, seems like her pairing of Arjun Kapoor is going to beat her pairing with Aditya Roy Kapur, on the scale of hotness. If you still don’t believe after watching the trailer and songs, let the movie do all the convincing.
The magic of ‘Phir Bhi Tumko Chaahunga’ and ‘Baarish’
As we had predicted, the music of ‘Half Girlfriend’ has turned out to be a chartbuster, with Arijit Singh’s ‘Phir Bhi Tumko Chaahunga’ and Ash King’s ‘Baarish’ ruling the charts. Even apart from these two favourites, the other songs from the soundtrack carry their own charm and melody, to suit each and every emotion of the heart. A plethora of the finest composers have come together for it, and Mithoon, Tanishk Bagchi, Rishi Rich, Farhan Saeed, Ami Mishra and Rahul Mishra have created something magical, together. The team of lyricist comprises of Manoj Muntashir, Kumaar, Kunaal Vermaa, Arafat Mehmood, Tanishk Bagchi, Laado Suwalka, Anushka Shahaney, R. Rekhi, Veronica Mehta, Yash Anand, Yash Narvekar and Ishita Moitra Udhwani, and their words have woven a magic, melting into the music. After mesmerising our souls with the audio, it will be a treat to watch these songs on the big screen.
A visual treat
By now, those who have read the book, and even those who have not, must have figured out by the trailer and songs that Madhav (Arjun) and Riya (Shraddha) meet in Delhi, and their story reaches New York, where it eventually ends. From the trailer, we can gauge that the movie is going to be a visual delight, with the locales being so beautiful, lively, and picturesque. It will be a treat to catch the same on big screens.
The unique concept, ‘Dost se zyada, Girlfriend se kam’
Written by Chetan Bhagat, the novel of ‘Half Girlfriend’ explores the relationship between Madhav and Riya beautifully, and the same can be expected from the movie too. The special thing about the book was that it instantly found a connect with the youth who could relate to this relationship form, which was neither here nor there. The dilemma between friendship and relationship was penned down amazingly and that is what we are expecting to see in the movie too. “Dost se zyada, girlfriend se kam, aakhir Half Girlfriend hai kya?”
Shraddha-Mohit and Arjun-Chetan; two hit jodis together
‘Half Girlfriend’ will witness two hit jodis working together to make this a hit venture, and no, we are not talking about Arjun Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor. Instead, we are talking about the first jodi of Arjun Kapoor and Chetan Bhagat, who have given a superhit ‘2 States’ in the past, and the second jodi of Mohit Suri and Shraddha Kapoor, who have tasted success with ‘Aashiqui 2’ and ‘Ek Villain’. When these two hit formulas come together, the box office is surely going to be on fire.
‘Half Girlfriend’ may put a halt to the ‘Baahubali 2’ tsunami
It has been three weeks since the release of Rajamouli’s magnum opus ‘Baahubali 2 – The Comclusion’, and the effects of the same are still not wearing off. Such has been the tsunami of ‘Baahubali’ that none of the Bollywood ventures have been able to sustain in front of it, till now. It will be interesting to see if ‘Half Girlfriend’ can halt the giant. In fact, we believe that it can bring a break, what do you think?
