Aaja Nachle is full of elements Bollywood has been missing for some time and is in SORE NEED of. 9 out of possible 10Ģ007 has been dry, but finally, we have been delivered.

Out of all the movies I've seen this year, this one truly made driving worthwhile. I did a 50 mile round trip and this time I don't even regret it. I can see that this play would win the hearts of townspeople in a small village. And, of course, when they told the story of Laila and Majnu as kids, with her feeling every pain he had and the world tearing them apart, my heart went aMadhuri was dressed so nicely! That last one when the play concluded was just gorgeous. The conflict between the Raja and Dia (Akshaye, a favorite of mine, really gave this movie a nice bit of electricity). I loved the subplots, like the 'most boring man' and his wife. But the staging, lighting and choreography for this Ishq dance were so DRAMATIC that it stands out. I like them all, especially the traditional one for Aaja Nachle. But as soon as I saw the dancers in red with their hair flying, doing the song about Ishq during the Laila-Majnu play, I knew that I had seen this year's favorite for me.

There is SO much music and dance in this movie, it is hard to pick a favorite. There have only been a few (Nargis, Hema, Shabana) who've been in that elite group. If there was an award for a woman carrying the lead all by herself, there's no question Madhuri Dixit would deserve it.

I can now say that I think the movie should sweep a lot of awards: It deserves Best Screenplay, Best Musical Director, Best Cinematography, Best Choreography, and Best Supporting Actor and Actress (Kunal and Konkona, of course). But she makes all the competition seem like runners-up to me. I guess my standards have slid a bit since she left. No one delivers the emotional expression through the entire spectrum the way she does. Aaja Nachle is Madhuri Dixit's case for still being the best out there.
