Review: Ahan Shetty's 'Tadap' Is Stale And Forgettable

, 8 news, 2 views

A love story about a man spurned, scorned and left to suffer, Tadap, directed by Milan Luthria and written by Rajat Arora, is strewn with the cliches of the genre. It does not have a single original sleight. But that is the least of the film's drawbacks. Scratch the prettified surface and what you find is a misogynistic rant masquerading as a movie.

Tadap, a remake of the 2018 Telugu film RX 100, is crammed with musical set pieces, romance detours, action sequences and picturesque locations. But everything that it packs into its two hours and a bit is completely overshadowed by its celebration of misguided masculinity.

The male protagonist, a rough-hewn youngster who does not believe in taking no for an answer, falls head over heels in love with an MLA's daughter and finds out the hard way that the stirrings of passion do not always lead to a bed of roses.
