Rating : \u2b50\ufe0f\u2b50\ufe0f<\/strong>\u2b50\ufe0f1\/2<\/em>
Genre:<\/strong> Sci-fi\/Experimental
Year<\/strong>: 2022
Running time<\/strong>: 2 hours 11 minutes
Director<\/strong>: Aakash Bhatia
Cast<\/strong>: Taapsee Pannu, Tahir Raj Bhasin, Dibyendu Bhattacharya
Kid rating<\/strong>: PG<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looop Lapeta is based on the German movie Run Lola Run<\/strong><\/a> about the same events unfolding 3 ways. The film has been modified to fit the Indian mold, with some new characters introduced and some removed, but the adaptation is done well, and the quirky film is fun to watch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Savina \u201cSavi\u201d Borkar (Pannu) receives a call from her boyfriend Satya (Tahir Raj Bhasin) – notice the name allusion to the Savitri Satyavan legend<\/strong><\/a>. Satya has managed to lose a large amount of money, and he must now face his boss who will but surely make short shrift of him. He then panics and calls Savi for help. Savi, dealing with momentous news of her own, drops everything and begins to run for help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a quest to get the money Satya requires, Savi meets many people – her father, a pair of estranged lovers, a jewelry store owner. Things don\u2019t look bright but she never gives up. Meanwhile, the boyfriend, not the brightest of chaps, gets embroiled in other sticky situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This film is well-named because it is loopy. There are do-overs and Savi and Satya start over and over after earier attempts where they mess up and one of them dies. It is a little mind-bending but in a fun way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taapsee Pannu<\/strong><\/a> as Savi is spot-on, and while Bhasin is fine, I\u2019m just surprised to see him in a series (Yeh Kali Kali Aankhein) and a movie (this one) in a short span of time. He is not quite good-looking enough for a Bollywood hero – not that that is a hard requirement, there is Rajkummar Yadav – but still. The acting chops while adequate aren\u2019t quite of Yadav\u2019s calibre. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is lovely to see an fun sci-fi film in Bollywood, even if it is “inspired” – you might recall that another Taapsee starrer Game Over<\/strong><\/a> had a similar do-over concept. Loop Lapeta is an entertaining watch – well-paced, and with interesting plot twists. Do watch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
