There are no twists and turns which take you by surprise. There is also a lack of drama which makes it quite monotonous. The script lacks any freshness and has a predictability quotient as the plot unfolds. Will Chutki and the family ever forgive and accept Badki will love ever come back into Badki’s life? But things take a turn for the worse when Chutki eventually learns the truth about her sister. However Badki’s dual life is on the verge of being blown when she battles blackmail, etc. Badki also meets Rohan (Abhishek) and there are sparks, but she lets go of love as she feels that it is not in her destiny. Meanwhile Chutki finishes her studies and comes to Mumbai she meets with success at work and also finds love with Vivaan (Kunal). Left with no opportunity and choice, Badki adopts a dual role and dons one of a high class call girl to help her family. However Badki being the eldest daughter decides to take on the responsibility of helping the family in the hour of crisis.īadki comes to Mumbai with the hope of getting a job, however in Mumbai she is faced with one rejection after the other. However he himself is helpless and curses faith for not providing him with a son who would be able to help the family in this financial crisis. The family head Shivshankar Sahay (Anupam) is steeped in debts and has to repay huge loans moreover his relatives are trying to take away the only thing left, his home. However they manage to keep this fact concealed from Chutki as they want her to continue her studies and move on to success. However under all this exuberance, Badki’s family is undergoing a severe financial crisis. The music for the film has been composed by Shantanu Moitra.īadki (Rani) and Chutki (Konkana) are the quintessential girls from Benares, naughty, always up to pranks and enjoying their carefree life in Benares. The film stars Rani Mukherjee as Badki, Konkana Sen Sharma as Chutki, Abhishek Bachchan as Rohan, Kunal Kapoor as Vivaan, Anupam Kher as Shivshankar Sahay, Jaya Bachchan as Sabitri, Hema Malini in a special appearance etc. The story has been written by Aditya Chopra and the screenplay has been done by Rekha Nigam.
The film has been produced under the Yash Raj banner and has been directed by Pradeep Sarkar. Director Pradeep Sarkar’s execution is able and even the performances are good, however it not able to lift the film higher due to a stale script and placid screenplay. Instead age old clichés as well as convenient sub plots are used which divert the audiences’ attention from the sensitive topic. Unfortunately Laaga Chunari Mein Daag’s script and screenplay do not manage to evoke either sympathy or empathy to the proceedings in the film or the characters. Girls from the interiors getting into the flesh trade is still a very relevant topic in today’s times. The film deals with the sensitive concept of how a young girl from Benares comes to Mumbai to earn a living for her family who is undergoing a financial crisis, however due to no option and choice, she is forced to get into prostitution.
Laaga Chunari Mein Daag has a sensitive story, unfortunately it has not been tackled adeptly and that is one of the reasons that the film comes across as regressive, monotonous and even predictable at times.
