Raabta is an Indian film released in 2017, marking the return of couple Sushant Singh Rajput and Kriti Sanon on the big screen. Directed by Dinesh Vijan, this film combines love and past lives in a thrilling and suggestive plot. Raabta takes viewers on a journey through time and space, raising questions about love and destiny.
The plot of Raabta begins with the two main characters, Shiv and Saira, portrayed by Sushant Singh Rajput and Kriti Sanon. Shiv is a wild boy, living a free life on a beautiful island, while Saira is a beautiful young woman searching for meaning in life. Their meeting in a bar in Budapest opens up a new adventure, taking them through a series of mysterious and strange events.
But the highlight of the film does not stop at the complicated relationship between Shiv and Saira. Raabta also tells a story from the past, with two characters, Jilaan and Zakir, portrayed by Rajkummar Rao and Jim Sarbh.
One of Raabta’s strengths is its juxtaposition between two parallel stories and how they interconnect over time. Past stories are not only part of the character development process but also the key to deciphering the mysteries and strangeness happening in the present. The ups and downs of love, rivalry and the rise of destiny create a complex web of elements that make up the film’s appeal.
Not only about the plot, Raabta also impressed the audience with its beautiful scenes and vibrant music. The film’s music also contributes to highlighting emotions, with romantic and dynamic music.
However, despite receiving attention for its creative plot and beautiful visuals, Raabta could not avoid some mixed reviews from critics.
