Barfi is just that – a masterpiece which is comparable to India’s best films.
This film will not excite you or thrill you but will melt your heart.
A still from Barfi
Ranbir Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra are fiercely competitive when they are together on the big screen. They wouldn’t let the other get an edge. In Barfi, there is not a single shot where Ranbir and Priyanka have not excelled. The two have done such a splendid job that they have unfortunately put Ileana D'Cruz an inch behind even though she has given a great performance.
Ranbir Kapoor shows amazing grit and determination as an actor. Portraying a deaf and dumb young man would normally require years of method acting. It is evident that Ranbir has gone through months of method acting while preparing for this role. Look at his on-screen character closely and you will find out that he has watched the earlier films of British actor Rowan Atkinson and Charles Chaplin while preparing for this role. Both Rowan and Chaplin don’t speak a word in these films but yet deliver classic performances and both set respective standards without uttering a single dialogue. Ranbir Kapoor has delivered a performance where he brilliantly mixes the two characters together.
