Planning To Watch ‘Kedarnath’ This Weekend? Read These 15 Tweets Before Booking Your Ticket

Abhishek Kapoor’s ‘Kedarnath’ is based on the brutal 2013 Uttarakhand flash floods that claimed many lives and required extensive rescue operations to help the state get back on its feet. And like any other disaster movie, Kapoor uses Sushant Singh Rajput’s Mansoor and debutant Sara Ali Khan’s Gattu to root the audience emotionally before the eventual apocalypse.

In doing so, ‘Kedarnath’ attempts to explore the cultural disharmony that happens due to the relationship between the central characters, and test whether love survives the wrath of Mother Nature. That said, has the movie passed or failed its first day screening?

Early responses from Bollywood, critics and fans have been positive for ‘Kedarnath’. And while Abhishek Kapoor’s direction, Sushant Singh’s acting and Amit Trivedi’s music has been lauded, it’s Sara Ali Khan who has stolen the spotlight.

Disaster movies ( as tragic as they are ) have always been a genre I like to watch! #kedarnath is a strong leap into that genre! The film moves you in the last act and the romance is beautifully captured throughout! For all those thirsting an honest love story !This is the one!

Sushant Singh Rajput is such a likeable actor for he loses himself completely in a character so much so that you are left with Mansoor. Be it romance, or heightened emotional scenes Sushant is in superb form. #Kedarnath

#Kedarnath | Tushar Kanti Ray’s cinematography is perfection! Breathtaking shots of Uttarakhand will leave you dreaming of the scenic mountains. Use of CGI to depict the Kedarnath tragedy is cleverly executed. The climax will leave you on the edge of your seat! Quite impressive. pic.twitter.com/PJVtBK5Nvf

#Kedarnath is mystical! A story of star crossed lovers, that is bound to leave you mesmerised. Absolutely loved the way @Abhishekapoor has shot this tale, with the scenic Uttarakhand as not just the backdrop, but as the one of the integral heroes of this film! ✨

However, a select few aren’t at all impressed by ‘Kedarnath’ and have criticised its slow pacing.

#KedarnathReview

Emotion less love story, script not proper for entertainment, only ending good, #SaraAliKhan looking beautiful, long stay, #SushantSinghRajput Average, no improvement, Cinematography excellent

My Rating: 1.5

#Kedarnath falls short to evoke right emotions while trying to put character and drama over spectacle. However, both @itsSSR & #SaraAliKhan are wonderful. Film's true strength lies in the combined appeal and compelling performances of the two. #KedarnathReview
