If Devdas hit the spot, these will too

The same hand behind both of them: Sanjay Leela Bhansali
The difference: Trades the wistfulness of Devdas for an angle of its own

Both land stillness and romance at once
The difference: Sits closer to crime than Devdas does

Tender and wistful in the same breath

Both lean on stillness more than on drama
The difference: Leans harder into science fiction than Devdas does

Both keep coming back to the same thing: musical
The difference: Takes it somewhere less wistful than Devdas does

Romance built on romance, twice over


Both are built on the same subject: sentimental

Wistful romance, and it commits to that

Drama with a pulse of stillness, in both cases
The difference: 20 years apart, and the 2020s show

Both lean on romance more than on romance

In the mood for more contemplative?
