What I felt after watching Dear Zindagi
I was expecting a light-hearted comedy drama film and it was a totally different film or should I say an Important film. Dear Zindagi is all about Alia Bhatt and she is leading the film to the end, SRK is the 2nd lead of the film and other actors are supporting cast.
The film deals with depression and mental pain which we conceive from situations at different ages of our lives, the things which we never share with anyone and those things killing us from inside.
Alia Bhatt is the superstar of this film. She was leading the film and all the scenes of her were top notch. She is emerging as a prominent actress of Bollywood.
SRK was excellent as a guide or doctor. He was well blended with the situations and his character of Dr. Jehangir Khan / Jug.
All other actors were in just supporting role and they were fine.
