*KZfaq has removed a lot of the reviewing section of this video at the end... Unfortunately not much our reviewing section is left after KZfaq's copyright mangled this but the REACTION is fine*

CHANDRAMUKHI IS NOT VILLAIN OR MANIPULATIVE. She loved Devdas in its highest form which is devotion and selflessness

Oh man. You have missed the beauty of Chandramukhi's character. She is the support that Devdas needed and she supported him without wanting anything in return. How can you miss that? She is the most beautiful character in this movie.

In the second song, "Bairi piya" there's this hand reading scene where Dev reads paro's hands and gestures that she'll marry and old man, while Paro reads Dev's hand gesturing that he won't marry at all... Very nuance yet beautiful foreshadowing ❤🥹🥹🥲🥲

No Deepika and Alia can come close to Aishwarya's level of Enigma. Not at all.

49:34 Efra Jawani means youth😂 not money.. Paisa in hindi means money..

34:01 that blood actually symbolises sindoor. Sindoor is a red powder worn by married women in the middle of forehead near the hairline. And in wedding this Sindoor is put on by husband on wife’s forehead. That’s the ritual. So dev is indirectly saying you are my wife and I’m your husband. 34:54 like that’s the actual sindoor right there.

Chandramukhi (Madhuri's character) was not misdirected and she's not a villain, I think you guys assumed she would be based on her profession. She was meant to be a sympathetic character, and genuinely loved Devdas and took care of him for months. Due to her station she knew she would never be able to marry him or anything, and she knew he loved another regardless, so her love for him was selfless. Actually in their relationship, Devdas was the cruel one, constantly talking down to her while using her for pleasure. Devdas also was cruel to Paro, rejecting her based on the same class prejudices despite his love for her. This whole story is a commentary on class. Devdas' parents turn down Paro on the basis that her mother was an actress - a role which back then was seen as only marginally better than a courtesan. It was their prejudices that lost them their son. It's the same prejudice that Paro's son-in-law flaunted at the Durga pooja (the Dola re Dola performance) but, rightly, Chandramukhi exposed his hypocrisy and defended her right to dignity. The so-called aristocrats are often less honourable than the lowly courtesans and actors. Tbh I'm not really sure how you guys missed the message, I feel the movie screams it in your face. It might be a good idea to leave aside assumptions you may have while watching movies, guys.

RIP Saroj Khan, who choreographed some of the best dance numbers in the history of Bollywood, including _Dola Re_ in this movie.

The "Dola Re Dola" was the most expensive song that time...Sanjay Leela Bhansali is known for making culturally rich songs and this one was the most expensive song, budget wise...

Devdas is an epic semi-autobiographical Bengali novella written by Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay. The novel was written in 1901, though it was not published until 1917.

Yes, it's a very good movie . And if you have the time to read this novel , please do so because there are many things in Author's perspective is different, from movie like devdas himself. In the novel Devdas was hopeless in between family, society and his feelings . And Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay all novels are incredible and you just can't stop reading . ❤❤And Shreya is 17 that time and debuted in this movie.

I miss this SRK so much now. He was a freak on screen. What a performance! We have lost that Srk amidst commercialism. Hope we'll see him again one day.

to answer efras question ...at 4:57 ..no India has not produced anyone veven nearly as majestic as beautiful as gorgeous enigmatic beauty as aishwariya ...there is none

It says "Dev-Pa" as in Devdas-Paro on his tattoo in the end.

Honestly , Everyone in Devdas did an amazing job but for me Kirron Kher stole the show. I tell you why? Even though all the other actors ( leading or supporting ) did great , but they did what was anticipated from them . On the contrary, Kirron Kher was a big Revelation in the film . She had been acting for a while back then, but people started recognizing her as an actor after this movie. I still remember as a kid, I was highly disappointed when she didn't win any major awards in the " Best supporting actress category" for this film. Her performance is the true definition of how the supporting actor should drive a scene through their performance that the audience forget about the leading actors. She is such a power house. My dad is not a movie buff at all. But He watched Devdas when it played on TV. And he only appreciated Kirron Kher's performance. He loved the two scenes. One where she gets back at Dev's mom and sister in law after the insult and the second one when she blows the horn as Devdas starts burning everything in the haveli. Do watch " Khamosh Paani", another epic performance by her. Highly recommended!!

Devdas has been remade 4 times in Indian cinema. Twice in the 1930s , 1950s, 2000s. There is also a contemporary take on Devdas which is very different but quite dark called Dev D which was made around the 2010s. The original text is from the early 20th century. Other than film adaptations there have been multiple adaptations on stage in multiple indian languages.

49:34...no Efra, jawaani means youth, paisa means money....brilliant review as usual from both of you....cheers

"Bro Shoot the girl in green" Editor: sure bro

Great reaction! But - you have terribly misunderstood the character of Chandramukhi. She was never meant to be an evil character, but someone who allows Devdas to see that love manifests itself in different forms (I truly believe that Devdas did fall in love with Chandramukhi). In fact, hers is the "purest" kind of love for Devdas. She doesn't expect marriage or physical intimacy or anything really from him in return, she's just happy just knowing that she has found love through him (as opposed to having found a lover) - primarily also because she as a courtesan does not expect her love to be reciprocated by a nobleman. Notice that she dresses like "meera" towards the last act of the film. In rewatches today it may in fact seem unbelievable that she loves Devdas the way she does, given that he ill-treats and disrespects her for a better part of the film. In my opinion, Chandramukhi was the best and strongest character of the three. Also Efra - sorry but I think your love for Aishwarya has blindsided you (WHO I ABSOLUTELY LOVE) - BUT y'all didn't appreciate Madhuri enough 😭Madhuri is a queeeeeen aand her phenomenal dancing aside, she is a fine fine actor, and she displayed that in this film. I noticed in the reaction that you guys missed some of her best lines (especially during her confrontation with Paro). She slaaaaayed!

It was rumored that Madhuri Dixit was 4 months pregnant when she filmed this movie. Fun fact: her complete outfit for Kahe Chedd Chedd Mohe weighed 24kg.

Devdas is very theatrical and melodramatic, that's why I think SLB did it best to cast SRK as devdas because he is a proper theatre actor. Also, Dilip Kumar played devdas in his era in the 50s. And he wanted only srk to play the role, if ever being remade. These two did the best as devdas in the hindi film industry.

From Here Queen Shreya Ghoshal Journey started ...first song bairi piya also won National award and many etc....❤

Sanjay Leela Bhansali's most underrated movie is Black in my opinion...absolutely terrific film and very very underrated...and its completely different from all the other Sanjay Leela Bhansali's movies

Efra used to now Kajol and SRK's pair like us now 😂😂

FYI the plot is not according to 2002. Its a pre-independent India plot. Probably in 1920s the author wrote the novel and SLB adopted it into a movie.

19:05 She is another legendary singer Dr. Jaspinder Narula. She is actually a PhD in Indian Classical music.. You can also checkout her live performances and songs..

They got all wrong. Madhuri and Jackie Shroff are not devils. Madhuri loved him and Jackie was a good friend and he didn't know that srk has lived problem.

Guys you need to watch JODHAA AKBAR nextt, 3 hours and 33 min of rollar coaster ride with Love ,war, lots of drama, politics and incredible music score by A.R. ❤ you can't miss this one and ofcourse Hrithik and Aishwarya together 🔥Kudos to the brilliant director Ashutosh Gowariker for his masterful storytelling and captivating cinematic vision From the awe-inspiring historical epic Jodha Akbar , he has also directed movies like Swades and Lagaan

How the hell did you not cryyyy... I've cried like for half an hour after watching this movie😢😢

I don't know why I knew Devdas would be next😂😂

If you watched closely, in Bairi piya song, they jokingly perfected their future, that paro will be rich and get married to old man whereas Deva will not get married..

This is Shriya Goshals first movie as singer when she was just 16.

That bleeding part of forehead represent of "Sindoor"(which represent of marriage ) though it's heartbreaking abusive but forcefully he married Paru in Religious and spiritual way , that's why music is romantic with heartbreaking ❤❤ "Jawani" means youth not money 😂😂😅😅

Not them hating on Chandramukhi for mere existing in Paro-Devdas life 🥲

She is the Madhuri Dixit..no one can match to her dancing skills in bollywood till date

34:01 okay so, with the way Devdas spreads the blood across Paro's hair part is supposed to symbolise sindoor (red vermillion that grooms apply on the bride's hairpart during the wedding ceremony). The reason this was done by blood rather than sindoor, is to showcase and symbolise just how toxic and unhealthy their relationship was. It's literally taking a symbol of union and marring it with blood. Their union is literally marked with blood. The film is precisely stating that if Dev and Paro were to get married, Dev would only fill her hairline with blood (i.e. her life with pain and sorrow) due his destructive nature.

Oh my god just what I needed after a sick day. I literally got emotional cause this is the only good thing that happened today. My god you two are angels😭😭😭😭😭

That "you drink till death" scene.. Not one guy can in indian cinema can do that except srk

I watched this movie by accident on KZfaq cuz it came on my fyp and honestly, Chandramukhi and Paro should've ended up together. Man Devdas was the entire problem.

I don't no whenever I see this movie, always I cried a lot... Srk is a brilliant actor..❤❤

Quick background on the other actress, Her name is Madhuri Dixit. She was the queen of bollywood in the 90s and the highest paid actress earning the same or more than the male leads which wasn't common at that time. She's also the top no.1 dancer of the 90s and during the song Dola re Dola she was actually pregnant yet she moves flawlessy. A gem of the 90s

Devdas is a antihero! stop romanticizing him, shah rukh khan himself said that devdas's death was his ultimate reality in the form of karma

Actually it's not overacting. It's done deliberately to give the actual theater feel to the audience. Sanjay leela bhansali specifically instructed his actors to act as if they are in a theater & the last person in the row should feel the emotion in your voice & acting. Hence you will see the over emphasis in their expression & voice modulation.

Guys the editor of your videos is the best man🤣🤣🤣🤣🙏🙏🙏🙏

Watch DevD it's the perfect time for it. A modern take on Devdas. With Abhay Deol and Kalki Koechlin the ones who played Kabir and Natasha in Zindagi na milegi dobara. A brilliant movie with amazing actors.

maturity is when you realise Devdas was the toxic one, and not paro or chandramukhi

Song timestamps: _Silsila Yeh Chahat Ka:_ 4:12 _Bairi Piya:_ 15:43 _Morey Piya:_ 19:37 _Kaahe Chhede:_ 29:59 _Hamesha Tumko Chaha:_ 34:09 _Maar Daala:_ 39:16 _Dola Re:_ 51:35 _Chhalak Chhalak:_ 54:42

You can watch Dev D. which is a retelling of Devdas in modern times with a lot of changes. It's by one of the best directors of post 2000s

I remember watching this movie when I was 12 a year after its realise I was crying so much SRK delivery is amazing this is my number one favorite movie of him his my number one indian actor

OH MY GOD! Tonight is set .

You guys gotta watch Dev D. It's a gritty realistic adaptation of the same story but based in modern times and incredible music by Amit Trivedi. You'd certainly enjoy it.

honestly i love your movie selections so much!!

How you two not crying while Paro's wedding scenes? I was crying a lot and cramped. That scene is so vulnerable. Imagine you love someone but marrying someone else for the sake of family dignity. If that me, I definitely will run away at the last night. 🙁 And do you realise that Devdas is more even remember of Paro when he is with Chandramukhi? Because in almost every performance of hers, she says 'isssh...' this reminds him of Paro like in the first song when Devdas gave Paro a bracelet. This makes him more crazy sad and vulnerable.

This was the first movie I ever saw in a theatre. I was a kid back then.

I just finished crying with you guys in the reaction to Aashiqui 2 and now I gotta grab another tissue box cause...well... 😢 Devdas 😢

If you want to watch something modern in Bollywood, I suggest watch Rocky aur Rani ki prem kahaani. It is a very very nice and enjoyable movie. It also talks about alot of themes that need to be talked about.

that was a crazy debut for shreya.. This kinda debut we didn't see again

Devdas is not just an word, it's an Emotion in India. The word is now synonymous to the Heartbroken Person.

Aishwarya is in her own league above ❤

Oh oh Next should be MY NAME IS KHAN pls, you will find another 'side' of SRK there ❤

Thank you soo much for thisss 🥺💝✨ my fav movie

Aishwarya is Eternal beauty ❤ But Madhuri is an emotion for 90s kids ❤❤ Most beloved Dancer+Actress of India. And SRK, ofc he is the legand 🔥 #Devdas is the most perfect flawed movie, which is Evergreen. I am glad that it's not perfect... just like life. Its like a Sad imperfect, heart touching poem 💔❤ Perfection is boring ok. Sarad Chandra Chattopadhyay was a fab novelist of Pre independence era of India. And what a brilliant description of Bengali culture this movie is...

There is a new movie that dropped on Netflix this week called Chamkila. It's about the tragic story of a real life Punjabi singer from the 80s who was killed because his songs were seen as vulgar, provocative, trashy, low brow. The film does well to go into the politics of taste. Also the visual style is really amazing. It's a visual and musical treat. Directed by imtiaz Ali (rockstar and tamasha) and music by Ar Rahman. This duo also creates good stuf

There's a theory that says in the aftermath of story, Paro also died. She did not survive the collapse with those huge iron gates

Efra " Jawaani" means "Youth" and "Paisa" means "Money"

Please “HUM DIL DE CHUKE SANAM” next…….. Sanjay Leela bansali movie starring Salman khan and Aishwarya rai and Ajay Devgan

Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam must be and should be the next👏👏

Hope you soon watch My Name is Khan. Its really good and we get to see Kajol and Sharuk again.

Btw Sharatchandra' Chattopadhyay the writer of this novel,,he wrote this at the age of seventeen....he went to work from calcutta to Rangoon now meyenmar there he wrote this piece while drunk...that's why he didn’t want to published this book bt almost seven years later he decided to published it and rest is history...

Amazing movie devdas ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ The performances of all the actors are equally strong and the film remains very unforgettable till date Aishwarya (Paro) has a phenomenal role be it acting, beauty, dance she is a package throughout the film. She won many awards for best actress from this film 👏 Shreya Ghoshal made her Bollywood playback singing debut with Devdas (2002) for which she received a National Film Award, Filmfare Award for Best Female Playback Singer Aishwarya Rai is a talented and versatile actress also watch some of her best movies - raincoat - choker bali bengali movie - guzaarish

❤❤❤❤❤❤ lots of love from India Love your pure innocent reaction Girl is sooooo sensitive n mature n awesome 😎

Bajrangi bhaijaan movie reaction pllz ❤i am 100%sure you both are crying 😅

This is a Masterpiece written by bengali legendary author Sharatchandra Chattopadhay . After maney years later they made a film about the Story , though the castings are just perfect.

Devdas was Shreya Ghoshal's debut in Bollywood and she sang most of the songs in this movie. She marked her arrival and ascendancy to the top of singing with this movie. She was only 18 or 19 when she sang for this movie and all the songs were chartbusters during the time...

KAL HO NA HO NEXT 😭💕 I LOVE U GUYS

You don't know how long I've been waiting for this one❤❤😂

Great reactions. I never would have connected the fire, water, colours etc to a specific meaning.❤👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I love how you guys are mesmerized by Ash's beauty. 😍😂 IMO there's no actress like her who can act like this. She is def director's actor. She delivers on some of the most bizzare director's briefing effortlessly. Her acting can make u think what they would h've told her to come up with that particular expression. She can sell any emotion with her expressions which she conjures up from thin air.

Next Kal hona ho movie ❤❤❤❤

Reaction❤❤ kuch kuch hota hai ❤movie 😂❤

You guys are my favourite people to watch on youtube. Your discussions and inputs are so interesting to listen to. I constantly rewatch your movie reactions.

That end till this day gives me terrible chills. The symbolism and the details of this movie is otherworldly ❤ I enjoyed this so much thank you... Yall have to watch bhool bhulaiyaa the first one you Will love it it's a classic!! ❤

If you want to watch the latest one then you should watch 12th Fail..it's a biography of a man who fought against all odds to clear the toughest exam of India and become an Indian Police Officer, one of the most reputed jobs in the country. It's about his undying determination and confidence which made him clear the exam. It's a brilliant movie with a brilliant cast and direction, considered one of the best Bollywood movies made in the past few years.

Next u guys should definitely check out Ram Leela.. it has one of the best music in Bollywood..plus SLB directed as well 👍🏻❤

This always be my favorite of SLB works. The music and casting was perfect. His later works are more opulent but there is something special about this.

Madhuri is old in this movie but she was very beautiful at her younger age too u can react her younger times of song's too she is legend expression queen 😊😊😊

Waiting for this❤

Guys, can you pls add Guzzarish movie in your list.. it's a wonderful and most underrated work of Sanjay Leela Bansali the same director.. Hrithik and Aishwarya the main cast..you will love it.

Ok... How come ive not seen people recommend Laila Majnu to them?? Great music and a heart wrenching movie of love

that cut and bleeding smudges through middle of the forehead and hear indicates marriage in Hindu culture. So, even though she is going to marry someone else, she already married to her soulmate & love of life. Brilliantly executed.

Love this channel.the perspective of understanding and viewing every scene ,every song beat is different and classy compared to other react channels.love u guys.kudos for your film choices

Amazing review. I think if you want to see a newer film you should watch Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna. It stars SRK, Rani Mukherji, Priety Zinta, Abhishek Bachchan, Amitabh Bachchan and Kirron Kher (the actress who played Aishwaryas mum in Devdas). So far you've only seen SRK as the lovable hero. In Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna his character isn't very likeable so you'll get to see another side of his acting

Guys this is a theatrical movie, the scene where dev hits Paro its a symbolism, you guys are artist too so you should know that. Dont take everything so literrally because nobody is romanticizing it, its a metaphorical reference like many others in the film

I loved your reaction.❤👍.Also I really love the continuity of the content on this channel. Waiting for many more reactions ❤

“Kabhie Khushi Kabhi F@&$”….. Efra 🤩

34:21 not romanticizing. Dev was violent. But the result is that the red on her forehead by him symbolizes her marriage to him at that point.

i can watch them watch movies for hours, they analyze everything so great lovvvee them

Bro this movie was air last Thursday in my country TV in 4K UHD. Like wow its was crazy

Omg 🎉 devdas 🎉
