Who needs a Prince Charming when the dame in stunning dress comes riding a white horse in high heels

Well! Bella & Bright in Thai-Indian collab is something I didn’t know I needed. This is such a refreshing and fun watch. Was so thrilling watching the familiar Thai artists dancing to a Hindi number in Indian attires.
This got beautiful cinematography and some exquisite scenes. Also this has many laugh-out-loud moments.

The story is much better than many of the mindless Indian movies. I know how it goes next since I grew up watching them but still few moments were surprising. But for the ones who never tasted the Indian stuff this might be super entertaining or weird. Anyway don’t expect a groundbreaking story since it’s a rom-com.

Bella! Bella! Bella! She’s extremely beautiful, talented and needless to say single-handedly carried the entire movie. Bright on the other hand is not so bright in few scenes. He does a decent job but he’s kinda lacking at times. Coming to the Indian couple I’m an avid Indian TV viewer but never heard of them. Anyway they were okayish. All the others did an okay job too.

I don’t understand the negative comments regarding the accents. Like the ones commented got the perfect accent or whatever. Perfection is scam. Anyway given this is a Thai movie and they are Thai artists imo they spoke EXTREMELY well. Anyway British colonized India for nearly 200 years and it’s not surprising if we talk to one another in English even at our homes. There’s no such thing as the usage of our pure mother tongues anymore. English just rolls in. So as an Indian it isn’t weird to see the Indian families in this speaking to each other in English.

Music is not good but not bad either. Liked the first rap(!) tho.

The wedding scene in this became my favorite after Crazy Rich Asians’s. So beautiful. Loved the fire juggling too.
Overall this is hella vibrant, entertaining with beautiful costumes and comedy.
Hope Bella & Bright will be paired again in a lakorn. Can’t get enough of them. :)
