Synopsis
Jai (Arjun Rampal) is a handsome young man with dynamic personality. He is a good son, a friend in need, and an ideal man for any
woman.
Jai is obsessively in love with Tia (Aishwarya), a heavenly beauty who responds to his affection with a bland acceptance and
indifference.
Instead of many an open advances by Jai, Tia remains stolid. She just cannot reciprocate Jai’s feelings with the equal warmth.
Something seems to be holding her back. But what?
A sudden twist of fate changes Jai’s life drastically. The once lovesick Romeo now turns into a man of stone-heart. For the first time
he sees that Tia has never really loved him. He feels as if he had been imposing himself upon her.
A devastated Jai begins to keep his distance from Tia.
Tia senses the change in Jai. For the first time she also feels a soft emotion for him in her heart. She realizes how rudely she had
been rebuffing his advances.
Tia begins to show genuine interest in Jai. But now it is Jai who has troubles reciprocating her feelings.
What follows is a complex cobweb of human emotions, before the film’s director Naresh Malhotra draws the story to its logical and
expected end.
Review
Although there is nothing much novel about the film’s story Dil Ka Rishta still captures a viewer’s attention owing to
beautiful cinematic presentation by editor-director Naresh Malhotra.
The main highlight of the movie is the presence in it of Bollywood’s most good-looking stars – Aishwarya and Arjun Rampal.
The film’s story, written by Ash’s mother Vrinda, goes into the eternal triangle theme in the initial reels itself. Here Arjun is at
the jagged end of the love triangle while Aishwarya and Priyanshu are in the thick of it.
But the second half of the movie begins to drag thanks to the mushy drama and the predictability of the plot. It was but expected that
Arjun would withdraw from Ash while the latter takes a volte-face and begins to show a genuine interest in the latter.
Both Ash and Arjun groove in well playing the leading roles in the film. The chemistry between the two is smooth partly because of the
fact that the two share an old dosti since their modeling days together.
On the sidelines, Priyanshu Chatterji plays his marginal role with panache. Rakhee too delivers a polished performance while Paresh
Rawal is wasted in a role that falls flat owing to poorly penned dialogues.
In a nutshell Dil Ka Rishta is a light-hearted romantic flick that is likely to pull a couple of strings at the viewers’
hearts.
