Modern day relationships are complicated, hard to understand and take their own sweet time to develop. Break Ke Baad is a breezy entertainer which pokes at this scenario and takes a potshot at portraying the attitude, mindset and dilemmas encountered by the urban youth when it comes to relationships. Aaliya and Abhay, are childhood sweethearts who growp up together and are extremely fond of each other. Abhay is a caring, sensitive and doting boyfreind whereas Aaliya's prtrayed character is demanding, moody and unpredictable. When both reach their twenties, Aaliya has this sudden desire to go abroad and pursue a degree in Mass Communication. This is followed by a lengthy argument during which Aaliya leaves for her studies and leaves behind a insecure, puzzled boyfreind Abhay.
The movie nails the target of the theme successfuly as it describes that how modern day relationships get messed up and the reason may not always be a fight or argument, Aaliya's character demands to explore spaces unknown, reach targets unimagined, but the cause of this desire to fly is not a bad relation or unsatisfactory life. On the contrary, Abhay is the most kind, considerate and loving boyfriend that can ever exist. With such contradictory characters in the film, there are plenty of twists.
The picturisation is youthful, snazzy and delightful which has become a trademark of the modern day movies that centre around topics like relationships or are chic-flicks. There is nothing remarkable about the music and the soundtracks consist of the usual guitar-with-country-type melodies and do not strike a chord with the audience. Deepika and Imran Khan share a good chemistry on screen, which will be the next topic of rumours and gossips in the Tinseltown.
The movie is a decent effort except for the fact that sometimes it stretches for too long and takes a boring path at times. Saying that, it is a one-time watch for its youthfulness, vibrancy and its take on modern day relationships....
