Who decides to swim through the 560 km long English Channel between Paris and England to reach a girl? Can we stop fooling our men in international waters, please?Īnother extremely problematic scene in the film is the writer’s solution to the manhandling and harassment. Shiddat could easily have been a progressive film, but the makers had to take an impractical path that seems more impossible than the prospect of finding sanity in Bollywood love stories. Who decides to swim through the 560 km long English Channel between Paris and England to reach a girl? Can we stop fooling our men in international waters, please? Or a simple love story by showing how they both overcome their delusions and fight the world to prove how much they want to be with each other.īut, the makers had to take an impractical path that seems more impossible than the prospect of finding sanity in Bollywood’s love stories (barring a few). Shiddat could easily have been a progressive film featuring the girl as a national level swimmer and the boy as a hockey player. She has no clue that this man is following her and has a whole plan to ruin her marriage which is happening in a few days with a man she herself agreed to marry and actually is happy. Jaggi sees Gautham and tells him how his speech inspired him to become such a great lover, who was not afraid to come to Europe to meet the love of his life aka Kartika (Radhika), who was told about this.
Only to be caught in France and exiled by Gautam who has now become an Indian diplomat in Europe. Few months later and we see Jaggi trying to enter UK illegally. The magic of that speech works wonders on Jaggi (Sunny), a happy, carefree soul who was there to enjoy ‘Free Ki Daru’ with her friends. In his beautiful speech during their wedding reception, Gautham talks about how he was meant to be with Ira and that he could find her wherever she was because that is his destiny. Directed by Kunal Deshmukh, Shiddat begins with the love story of Gautam (Mohit Raina) and Ira (Diana Penty) – two completely opposite people who fall in love and decide to be together for life.
