Madhuri Dixit is a legend! She can speak through her eyes! Her beauty is so mesmerising! and she is the best dancer apart from one of the finest actress! Proud to have her in Bollywood! She is a blessing !
@@TheCamerad very beautiful and accurate reaction. You nailed it! Devdas is from a rich family, and their family thinks of Parvati's family as beneath them because her mom used to dance (not considered respectable in Victorian India). He's hurt, and turns to alcohol and sex to compensate. Enter Chandramukhi (Madhuri Dixit). If you're familiar with the geisha in Japan, you pretty much know who Chandramukhi is. Their profession isnt sex work per se, they primarily entertain men through other means, but sex isnt necessarily off the table in their agreements. So, Devdas goes from having been spurned by his somewhat less aristocratic neighbor/childhood love, to seeking comfort in brothels, women, and alcohol. Its a very painful story. The novel is very much a critique of the respectability norms of that time, Namely, how zealous adherence to class, societal structures, "respectability", and comforming with society often leads people to miserable outcomes. Devdas dies from alcohol, Paro is stuck in a loveless marriage, and Chandramukhi, well, given her profession, she found whatever happiness she could in Devdas. Side note, Dola Re Dola is when Parvati invites Chandramukhi to her house for Durga Puja! Thats pretty much like inviting your hooker-friend to church service as your plus one = ). Devdas is an amazing story!
The actress in this song is Madhuri Dixit. One of the most talented actresses who was a star in 90's and she is incredible with expressions as you already saw that and she is a trained kathak dancer which a classical dance form of India.
Madhuri's Character is a Tawaif, Tawaifs were basically professional dancers who used to organize dance shows at their house called Kotha for Thakurs, Nawabs, Landlords basically rich folks. (i think these are different from brothel but sometimes people consider it the same)
You have got to watch all the songs from this movie. All are iconic and have played a massive roll in revolutionizing Bollywood (and I would even go as far to say World) cinema.
Madhuri is poetry in motion. Her smiles and eyes say a lot without uttering a single word. She has set high standards of dance which today's young actresses cannot reach 50%.
You’re welcome! I’m so glad you took my suggestion. The actoress in this song is a legend and my favorite and the director is a genius. I look forward to you discovering more of his work! All the songs in Devdas are stunning. You might also like Kahe Ched Mohe, Silsila Ye Chaahat Ka, and Dola re Dola from Devdas. I haven’t seen the film yet but I hope to soon. Another stunning song by the same director is the song Deewani Mastani from the film Bajirao Mastani.
Amazing choice! ♥️ This type of dancing called kathak as far as I know and it's super expressive she talks with her movements and hand gestures! Very beautiful ♥️♥️ Madhuri dixit "the courtesan in the movie" is an expert in this style she actually teaches it and dancing in general Courtesans in asia in general -also as far as I know- are performers mainly and in the first place. They call it art amongst themselves that they're artists and entertainers Such a gold movie very tragic but visually very beautiful ♥️♥️ You should see the rest of the songs from the movie all of them no exception are stunning! -Kaahe chhed mohe "another stunning performance by Madhuri" -Silsila ye chahat ka "you'll get to see Paru/Amazing Aishwarya ray dancing with the candle she lit for Devdas such a masterpiece" -dola re dola "rare piece where the two beautiful actresses dance together! This one is a must watch ♥️ you should btw check this one's translation because it's upbeat but actually the lyrics are quite bitter you'll feel it throughout the end" You should watch the movie too!♥️ Sanjay leela Bhansali's work is always worth watching 👌🏻
Agreed. His creations may seem dramatic, but during my grandma and great-grandma’s time, he was very popular as people could relate to those social injustices. His fictions used to challenge traditional Hindu culture and suffering of Bengali Hindu women during that time. I read all of his novels but did not feel so emotional like my grandma felt. Unlike Rabindranath Tagor or Shakespeare, his literal works only were for victorian age or people of the early 20th century. After that, a lot of changes happened to Indian culture - thanks to these literal works. You may want to watch a Bollywood production of Tagor’s one of the famous timeless fiction Chokher Bali. It is about a love triangle/ extramarital affair involving a beautiful young widow with a wealthy landlord of Bengal. People still can relate to this novel for its emotional tension and pain.
Madhuri Dixit plays a courtesan but falls in love, she's expressing her pain in this song knowing she can never get his love because he loves Paro. In the song Kahe Ched, is when she meets him and tries to seduce him, which IMO is even better than Maar Dala so please react to that!
madhuri was wearing 30kg costume in this song. u should check out dola re dola from the same movie especially with the lyrics coz lyrics gives an extra layer to the song and u can understand what they are saying :)
Devdas is a classic Bollywood movie. There's rimance, drama, family politics, comedy, revenge, synchronised dancing. Madhuri is the queen 👑. You should watch her song 'choli ke peche kya hai' from the movie khalnayak.
Madhuri Dixit is my hero from my childhood. She is great actress and dancer. She expresses her feelings extraordinary clearly with her emotions and body language. I love her👍👍👍❤️
Madhuri dixit is the most phenomenal actress and dancer in the history of bollywood. Her movies are hits in other parts of the world despite their box office collections in India. Here in Guyana, South America she is the biggest bollywood star. Her charisma is unmatched by any other actress
Now you must also watch the songs ➡ Silsila Ye Chahat Ka ➡ Bairi Piya ➡Morey Piya (here sumitra would like to arrange the engagement of para and dev) ➡ Hamesha Tumko Chaha (Paros wedding) ➡ Dola Re Dola (celebration of Durga Puja Paro/Chandramukhi) So beautiful songs 😊m
Always refreshing to watch a person from one culture react, appreciate and actually understand the emotions of art portrayed from another culture. Pleasure to watch, thank you.
It's quite simply the best Bollywood movie ever made. Your review and appreciation for the art, tradition and culture brought me to tears. Please watch the movie it's incredible. When you see the subtitles in the songs and understand their true meaning you will love it even more!
Matthew you do have good taste, I have been a fan of Indian movies since the 1950's I especially love the love stories, music, and dancing, but the music dancing, and songs in Devdas, the movie, I just cannot get enough of, and also excellent choreography.
So she was really in love with him and he loved Ashwariya.. Of course that was the iconic Madhuri...this film was a powerhouse because its been remade multiple times... Madhuri and Ashwariya were in it with SRK. The really huge dance is where Madhuri and Ashwariya perform together... absolutely incredible.
Dress worn In this song weights 20Kgs and jewellery is of 10Kg Hats off to Madhuri ji and I really wonder how she managed to dance wearing so heavy costume and jewellery and a toughest dance form Katthhak... one of many Indian classical dance form I will suggest you to pls watch these songs with english subtitles as these are very meaningful songs ...👍 Btw ur expressions are awesome...👍
Impressive how much you were able to figure out by expressions... this is kathak a semi-classical dance form of India, performed by incredible artists, production designers, designer outfits and incredible choreography by Saroj khan. So much attention to detail from the lamp shades, chandeliers to jewelry design have gone into the making of this song... so what you see is a culmination of artists at the top of their game putting it all out. Another song "kahe ched mohe" in the same movie choreographed by pandit birju maharaj... who is a legend in the kathak dance form is a feast to the eyes as well.... also performed by Madhuri Dixit.
Nautch women are entertainers who sang and danced as their livelihood. This was a special group of people set apart to entertain the rich.It was passed down from one generation to another.
She is my All times Favourite actress. Let me add, I am not Indian, I am Turkish+Persian, was raised in Pakistan. I have watched this movie over 20 times and this song nearly 1000 times, but still my love for this movie and Madhuri does not finish. This movie is wonderful and Madhuri is just beautiful. Thanks for sharing, brought too many good memories x
the courtesans of the nineteenth century India were really talented women. Really great singers, dancers and sometimes both were among them. Its sad that their talents were sometimes ignored and they were often looked down upon in that time India
Hey Matthew! Love your reactions! Since you already witnessed the retro and early bollywood try reacting to the song "dhum tana" from om shanti om(2008) the song has glimpses of retro bollywood and has digitally altered actors from yesteryears. It's a visual delight!

@@koustavb wow I loved this coment! The last part explains a lot!
So true
She is expression queen of bollywood ❤
:) I love her! Wonderful work x
The word 'Mara dala' is killed ....
And she gave 4 different expression for word mara dala.....she must receive highest dancing award if any.
Wow, that's interesting!
I think highest dancing award will be named after her .
Hats off to her and saroj khan for the choreography
The actress in this song is Madhuri Dixit. One of the most talented actresses who was a star in 90's and she is incredible with expressions as you already saw that and she is a trained kathak dancer which a classical dance form of India.
You can see him falling in love with her 😂 who can blame him, she has always been a national treasure 💕
She's the queen of dancing her name is Madhuri dixit. I simply loved your reaction. Please react to Mera Piya Ghar aya from Yaarana. You will love it
Queen of indian cinema
Queen of expressions
Queen of dance
Queen of acting
What not.... the goddess of talents...
Seriously your reactions are amazing
Queen of attitude too🤣😂
Madhuri's Character is a Tawaif, Tawaifs were basically professional dancers who used to organize dance shows at their house called Kotha for Thakurs, Nawabs, Landlords basically rich folks. (i think these are different from brothel but sometimes people consider it the same)
Ah an interesting different definition in the culture? :)
@@TheCamerad i think back then courtesans were either taught or brought up learning poetry, dance and singing as basic skills for their occupation.
They also had clients. They entertained and served.
Well actual tawaif is prostitude.... but these preformances part thre wrk
Sort of like Geishas
Your reactions are precious! always great to explore the cultures of the world, good for you!
Ah much appreciated! :) Thank you
Madhuri is a living poetry! Wow! every word of poetry interpreted to perfection.
You have got to watch all the songs from this movie. All are iconic and have played a massive roll in revolutionizing Bollywood (and I would even go as far to say World) cinema.
Madhuri is poetry in motion. Her smiles and eyes say a lot without uttering a single word.
She has set high standards of dance which today's young actresses cannot reach 50%.
You will never tired seeing madhuri Dixit dancing

Sanjay leela Bhansali's work is always worth watching 👌🏻
Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay is one of the most powerful novelist of nineteenth century from Bengal. "Devdas" is a very popular novel.
Wow

Rightly explained the song's background. Oh, that expression on Shahrukh's face depicting his tragic loss on both loves.
Devdas is a classic Bollywood movie. There's rimance, drama, family politics, comedy, revenge, synchronised dancing. Madhuri is the queen 👑. You should watch her song 'choli ke peche kya hai' from the movie khalnayak.
