'Veere Di Wedding' sparkles with chick splendour

The trailer of "Veere Di Wedding", featuring actresses
Kareena Kapoor Khan, Swara Bhasker, Sonam Kapoor and Shikha Tilsania, which is
just out, sparkles with a chic chick splendour.
This seems to be the
first bonafide chick flick from Bollywood's mainstream cinema. And it bubbles
and percolates with internal combustion. Yes, all four women seem ready to
explode with a raunchy indignation.
One of them, Shikha complains she
hasn't had sex for a year. Kareena is disgusted and embarrassed by her future
in-law's vulgar display of ostentatious wealth. Sonam seems to be stuck with a
jerk whom she refers to as a ‘bahenc***'.
Yes, to "Veere Di Wedding" goes
the dubious distinction of getting the extremely upmarket and chic Sonam to use
a filthy Hindi expletive.
The trailer of "Veere De Wedding" seems to go
by fashionable notions of empowerment…girls who swear? Box ticked. Girls who
drink? Box ticked. Girls who treat their boyfriends/spouses like cretinous
vermins? Box ticked. Girls who think marriage is a pain in the purse? Box
ticked. Girls who discuss orgasms? Box ticked.
Although "Veere De
Wedding" plays it by the rulebook, there is nonetheless plenty of verve and
vitality in the interactive swirls that the trailer takes in its tumultuous
lifespan.
All the four actresses give a sharp spin and a tantalising
twirl to their buddy-buddy 'baatein'. It's a delight to see the feisty
fraternisation among the four enticing actresses.
For the rest, the film
does seem to be a bit trite around the edges. But then so what? At least these
girls seem to be having fun. We can only hope to join in when the film releases
on June 1.
