Review by Ramisa Rafika Rizvi ★★★★

"Notebook" is a cool breeze movie, portrait freshly in Kashmir & the beautiful cinematography is just breathtaking. To review the overall film, I definitely gonna play against my better judgemental reviews. The tremendous music & rural Kashmiri landscape definitely can convince the audience to stuck on to the film. Storyline is too predictable, but still, the film is so charming; & worth to watch.

"Terlepas dari mengganggunya penempatan lagu dan musikalnya, 'Notebook' masih dapat dinikmati. Memang terlihat bermain aman, tapi kedua hal : pendidikan dan cinta, dapat dikemukakan dengan baik lewat kepiawaian Nitin Kakkar. Penyandingan Pranutan Bahl dan Zaheer Iqbal juga berhasil, keduanya bermain apik dalam debutnya."

Review by Tori ★★★½

This was... a lot. Action hero, melodrama, kids fun, romance, war feels, Kashmiri pandit issues, time-crossed love, violence... So many up and downs. But something about it is so earnest and cute without being too annoying. I enjoyed it a lot against my better judgment; it was better than most Bollywood fare.

Review by Luke Thorne ★★★

Nitin Kakkar’s drama. Things change at a school in awful conditions when Kabir (Zaheer Iqbal) spots a notebook left by a previous teacher named Firdous (Pranutan Bahl). In Hindi with English subtitles.

Eager for an alteration, a previous army officer takes an occupation as a teacher at an isolated school in Kashmir. When he finds a notebook from the preceding instructor, it isn’t long before he finds himself adoring a woman he has on no occasion encountered.

Zaheer Iqbal and Firdaus Quadri both give good performances in their respective roles as Kabir and Firdous. Kabir is the teacher who loves Firdous but has never met her, while Firdous is the former teacher at the school who is left upset on…

Aku lupa gimana cerita versi Thailand-nya ya. Cuman yang jelas aku sukaaak banget sama film itu. Ternyata aku juga suka sama versi Indianya ini.

Lebih dramatis sih menurutku. Khas India lah. Konflik soal murid bernama Imran cukup bikin sedih. Tapi yang paling ngena tuh latar belakangnya Kabir. Huaaaaa ngenes kasihan bener dia. Ini nih yang bikin aku mikir aku lupa sama versi Thailand. Memangnya di versi Thailand, si guru cowok juga mantan tentara ya?

Aaaah yang jelas, aku suka dua-duanya. Versi Thailand dan versi India ini. Tema tentang cinta tanpa pandangan pertama selalu nggak pernah gagal bikin aku suka dan nangis terharu.

This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

I would have loved this film if I was 5. The ways problems are resolved are so excruciatingly lame.

Problem: The notebook sinks into the water.

So, the protagonist dives in and brings it up. Problem solved.

Wow! Such godly writing skills!

And the very best the writers could do to portray Kabir's weak mathematical skills is making him solve 3rd grade algebra where he concludes 3 equals 20? It's common sense more than mathematics at this point!

The songs felt really unnecessary. So disappointing.

‘Notebook’ movie review: Forget the romance and look out the window

In nitin kakkar’s kashmir-set film, a diary sparks off love between teachers separated by time and distance..

‘Notebook’ movie review: Forget the romance and look out the window

Notebook has an unremarkable lead pair, an underwhelming dull love story in which the actors don’t share the screen for nearly the entire duration of the narrative, some of the most ravishing views of Kashmir yet, a bunch of adorable children and a soundtrack with a few good tunes.

The mathematics almost works in the favour of Nitin Kakkar’s movie, his third since his warmly received debut Filmistaan (2012). Notebook is an official remake of the Thai movie The Teacher’s Diary (2014), and centres on a book of doodles and musings. It has been left behind in the school floating on a lake by the previous teacher, Firdaus (Pranutan Bahl). The diary provides guidance and comfort to Kabir (Zaheer Iqbal), who is Firdaus’s replacement.

Kabir falls for Firdaus one page at a time as he reads about her unusual teaching methods and her entanglement with a domineering boyfriend. After an initial struggle with his pupils, who miss Firdaus’s superior pedagogical methods, Kabir manages to win their hearts. But it’s time to leave and for Firdaus to return. As she finds her diary again, she realises that Kabir has filled out the remaining pages with his feelings for her.

The Thai movie was a clever riff on the epistolary romance, and some of its best bits have been faithfully transported to Notebook . The Hindi adaptation attempts a balancing act between peddling a tourist’s view of Kashmir and acknowledging the problems that the state has faced during its long, bloody autonomy movement. Kabir is a former Indian Army soldier, burnt by the inadvertent death of a child, and his Kashmiri Pandit background is an added layer in his engagement with the school. Firdaus yearns for personal freedom, and attempts to do the right thing by a student with a fundamentalist father.

The most memorable takeaway about Kashmir, however, is visual. The movie is bursting with some of the most eye-watering views of the Valley captured on film yet. Cinematographer Manoj Kumar Khatoi finds memorable frames in every location, be it the gentle lake on which the isolated school floats or the snow-capped mountains that loom in the distance.

notebook 2019 movie review

Nitin Kakkar, who has written the dialogue for Darab Farooqui’s adapted screenplay along with Payal Ashar, liberally uses long shots to overcome the inability of his debutant lead pair to carry off a romance that plays out in two distinctive time zones. It doesn’t pay to mourn the wooden performances of the leads when there is always a lovely view of the Valley available or ridiculously cute children running around. Location is everything, the dictum goes, and it applies firmly to Notebook , injecting a suggestion of sublimity into a stilted romance with simplistic politics.

An ex-army officer Kabir (Zaheer Iqbal) comes back to Kashmir to be a school teacher. However, things turn out to be totally opposite of what he had imagined. The school is situated in the middle of the remote Wuller lake, lacking basic amenities like running water and electricity and is attended by just a handful of students. This is not what Kabir had signed up for.

Notebook Movie Review: Salman Khan's production NOTEBOOK starring Pranutan Bahl and Zaheer Iqbal boasts of exemplary performances by the debutants and is beautifully shot while stressing on the importance of education.

In the age of electronic media and social messaging apps, the charm of handwritten letters and note is even more special. At such a time, Salman Khan presents NOTEBOOK. Although it is based in time period of the last decade, it is not exactly a period film and talks about some of the relatable issues of Kashmir, and also of the matters of the heart. So does NOTEBOOK manage to entertain and touch a chord among the viewers? Or does it fail to do so? Let’s analyse.

notebook 2019 movie review

NOTEBOOK is the story of the bond that develops between two lonely teachers without even meeting each other. Kabir (Zaheer Iqbal) is based in Jammu and has quit the Army following a traumatic incident. He is called to Srinagar by an acquaintance who recommends him to join a school started by his father in Wular. The school’s only teacher Firdous (Pranutan Bahl) has quit the school just some time back. With no other teacher there, Kabir agrees to join. Wular is located in a remote town and the school is built in a rundown houseboat. There are only a handful of students around and Kabir starts teaching them. In the drawer in the teacher’s desk, he finds a notebook written by Firdous. She has written her thoughts, fears, insecurities, strengths etc. while she was teaching in Wular. It helps motivate Kabir and he also falls for her. Also, the manner in which the students speak highly of her makes it clear that she’s a kind-hearted person. Firdous also mentions in her diary that she is having an on-off relationship with a man called Junaid. Moreover, one day the school is hit by a storm during which Firdous’s notebook falls in the water. Kabir tries to save it but fails. What happens next forms the rest of the film.

NOTEBOOK is the official remake of the 2014 Thai film TEACHER’S DIARY [Directed by Nithiwat Tharatorn; story and screenplay by Nithiwat Tharatorn, Sopana Chowwiwatkul, Thodsapon Thiptinnakorn and Supalerk Ningsanond]. Darab Farooqui’s adapted screenplay comes across as inconsistent. The script had to be watertight in this film keeping in mind the loopholes in the plot. Sharib Hashmi and Payal Ashar’s dialogues are fine and work well within the context of the film.

Nitin Kakkar’s direction is poor, which is shocking considering how well he had executed his previous films, FILMISTAAN [2014] and MITRON [2018]. The first sign is seen in the opening scene itself depicting Kabir suffering from the horrors of his past. However, this bit is shown just once. Ideally, the director should have shown it multiple times that he’s getting flashes of the horrendous episode he suffered when he was in the armed forces. Secondly, an action scene is needlessly forced in the first half and it serves no purpose. NOTEBOOK is a niche, multiplex-type urban film and the masala fight sequence looks so out of place. In fact, this niche appeal is also an issue as audiences might not get exactly the gist of some scenes. Take for instance the scene where Kabir reaches Delhi Public School to find Firdous. It is not clear at this juncture whether he managed to recognize Firdous. If he did, it’s bewildering why he didn’t talk to her. If he didn’t, then why didn’t he ask around in the school about her whereabouts. Lastly, it is laughable to see that Kabir never reads Firdous’s book fully. He’s reading just few pages each time. Note that he’s in a remote town and he has no other means of passing time. Also, he has fallen crazily for this girl. In such a situation, anybody in his place would have read the notebook in one go. But Kabir doesn’t and it’s only a few months later that he realizes that she has also written about her marriage! Due to such silly sequences, the impact goes for a toss.

NOTEBOOK is around two hours long but moves at a snail’s pace. The introduction part is engaging and the manner in which the school is depicted initially is intriguing. One can actually feel that the school is located in the middle of nowhere. Kabir trying to adjust to his new surroundings makes for a fine watch. The sequence of Kabir making friends with the kids is okay as the humour seems forced. The best part of the first half is however when Kabir catches his girlfriend Dolly cheating. The use of the song ‘Accha Sila Diya’ adds to the fun. The intermission point is quite arresting. Post-interval however the film falls. Kabir could have easily met Firdous by making enquiries but the makers don’t allow that to happen. Hence, it seems very unconvincing. Also, the film deals with too many topics like terrorism in Kashmir, exodus of Kashmiri pandits, importance of education for Kashmiri children etc. These tracks however are more interesting than the principle plot and that’s not good news for a film that is essentially a love story. The film ends on a fine note but it’s too little, too late.

NOTEBOOK rests on some fine performances with both the debut actors doing an excellent job. Zaheer Iqbal is quite sincere and genuinely does a good job. Despite his tough look, he plays the vulnerable part very well and comes across as quite endearing. Pranutan Bahl is stunning and has a supreme screen presence. She delivers a first-rate performance and can definitely make a mark in Bollywood, provided she signs some well-written films. From the kids, Mir Mohammed Mehroos (Imran) has an important track and is a natural. Soliha Maqbool (Shama) is most adorable. The others - Mir Mohammed Zayan (Tariq), Baba Hatim (Waqar), Adiba Bhat (Dua) and Hafsa Ashraf Katoo (Iqrah) also put their best foot forward. Mir Sarwar (Iqbal’s father), recently seen in KESARI, is fine. Zahoor Zaidi (Hameed Chacha), Mozim Bhat (Junaid) and Farhana Bhat (Dolly) are decent.

Notebook HONEST Public Review | Salman Khan | Zaheer Iqbal | Pranutan Bahl

Vishal Mishra’s music is melodious. 'Nai Lagda' is the best song of the lot and is also picturized well. 'Bumro' is peppy although it comes up all of a sudden. 'Main Taare' comes next though Salman Khan’s voice doesn’t come across properly at a few places. 'Safar' and 'Laila' are forgettable. Vishal Mishra’s background score is as per the film’s theme.

Manoj Kumar Khatoi’s cinematography is stunning and captures the remote Kashmir locales beautifully. Urvi Ashar Kakkar and Shipra Rawal’s production design is rich. The entire school-in-houseboat bit is fascinating. Sanam Ratansi’s costumes are appealing. Shachindra Vats’s editing could have been tighter.

On the whole, NOTEBOOK boasts of exemplary performances by the debutants and is beautifully shot while stressing on the importance of education. At the box office, the film would appeal only to multiplex audience.

Notebook Movie Review: Rough-On-The-Edges Zaheer Iqbal And Pranutan Star In Affected Love Story

Notebook movie review: pranutan, granddaughter of one of the finest actresses that hindi cinema has ever produced, isn't a finished article..

<i>Notebook</i> Movie Review: Rough-On-The-Edges Zaheer Iqbal And Pranutan Star In Affected Love Story

Cast : Pranutan Bahl, Zaheer Iqbal and Muazzam Bhat

Director : Nitin Kakkar

Rating: One star (out of five)

Can picture-postcard images paper over misshapen pockmarks left on a film by a pair of rough-on-the-edges new actors finding their tentative way through a sloppy screenplay and going around in circles? If Notebook , Nitin ' Filmistaan ' Kakkar's third film, is anything to go by, the answer is a big, resounding no. The callow lead pair, Zaheer Iqbal and Pranutan Bahl, are called upon to exude unadulterated passion in an affected love story in which they do not physically meet until the very end of the film. By then, Notebook is in tatters and the audience is snoring (that is if the ear-splitting background score lets you doze off).

Cinematographer Manoj Kumar Khatoi's camerawork captures lush, stunning Kashmiri vistas - undulating landscapes covered with flaming chinar leaves, water bodies refracting the sun and the moon in all their splendour, snow-covered peaks peeping into the lens from a distance - in a steady stream that lends the film its surface sheen. It is captivating all right, but it cannot pull Notebook out of the senseless narrative swamp that it wades through in its attempt to deliver an unusual story of young love set in a strife-ridden paradise where anger and anguish reside side by side.

Adapted by screenwriter Darab Farooqui from Teacher's Diary , Thailand's official entry for the Oscars in 2014, Notebook transports the original tale from a rural school to a remote location in the Valley, where a small institution floating in a lake is on the verge of being shut because it does not have a teacher. The handful of students who once attended the school are at a loose end. An ex-soldier, Kabir Kaul (Iqbal), a Kashmiri Pandit nursing the guilt of having failed to save a boy from a landmine, arrives to fill the breach.

Pranutan in a still from the film.

Abbas Kiarostami kind of touches - a protagonist trying to seek a vantage point from where he can connect his handset to a mobile telephone service - are inevitable in a location such as this. The network is spotty here. A boatman tells Kabir that mobiles work in this part of the world only when the mausam (weather) and mahaul (environment) are conducive, which, he hastens to add, is rarely the case.

On another occasion, Kabir, whose family was forced to flee to Jammu when the Kashmir conflict erupted in the late 1980s, is told that the school is so far from civilization that even ummeed (hope) takes forever to get there. The dialogues, written by Sharib Hashmi (who played the lead in Kakkar's 2012 National Award-winning film Filmistaan ) and Payar Ashar Chohan, fluctuates between the meaningful and the prosaic. One line that is repeated ad nauseum and becomes a leitmotif of sorts goes thus: Andhere ko andhere se nahi mitaaya jaa sakta, ussey roshni ki zaroorat hoti hai (Darkness cannot kill darkness, only light can).

It is spoken in the context of a bright schoolboy whose father is a fundamentalist (Mir Sarwar) bent upon putting an end to his education. The tussle between the gun and the blackboard is one of the key narrative strands of Notebook - it forms the spine of the film's climax - but its introduction into what is essentially a fluffy love story is rather laboured. As long as the children (all acted by local first-timers) are on the screen, Notebook yields some joy. The rest is dreary enough to be a cure of insomnia.

Returning to the plot, Kabir is no great shakes as a teacher and it takes a while for the five lovely children in his charge - two boys and three girls - to warm up to him. But the students never stop missing Kabir's predecessor, Firdaus (Bahl), who was an infinitely superior teacher. His lonesome life takes a turn when he finds a diary left behind by Firdaus.

The girl's free-wheeling ruminations on her likes and dislikes, her ups and downs, her struggles to break free from a domineering boyfriend (Muazzam Bhat) and her unshakeable belief in the transformative power of education inexorably draw Kabir towards her. He adds his comments in response to her jottings in the diary as he goes along. Soon, Kabir's limitations as a teacher begins to tell on the performance of the students and he is sent away to be replaced by Firdaus. It is now her turn to read Kabir's innermost thoughts. True love blossoms for the first time in her heart. Two perfect strangers separated by time and temperament become soulmates.

Zaheer Iqbal in a still from the film.

The diary is a pretext for many flashbacks that reveal the back stories of the two principal characters. One of them centres on Kabir's girlfriend who, tired of waiting for him, has found a new lover. When the hero learns of the development, he is livid. He switches to army man mode and beats his rival to pulp. The girl is unimpressed.

Notebook is presented by Salman Khan's production company, but do not expect the advent of Zaheer Iqbal to be epochal. He is no patch on Bollywood's lover boys. Not only is he a single-expression actor, he needs to work on his dialogue delivery. He seems at times to rush through his lines. Pranutan Bahl, the granddaughter of one of the finest actresses that Hindi cinema has ever produced, isn't a finished article. But because she is a chip off the old block, we will watch her progress with keen interest while wishing that her next project isn't as pedestrian as Notebook .

The story might have even been a cutesy take on loneliness and virtual companionship if the writing had bothered to focus on the psychology of the protagonists.

A breathtaking setting and some adorable children can't rescue the flavourless romance that is Notebook.

notebook 2019 movie review

Militants and insurgency and the contentious presence of the armed forces are kept at a minimum, shown in only scant, sanitized glimpses.

It is a pity that Kakkar's heavy-handed approach weighs down what could have been a light, easy watch.

Both the debutantes have acted their hearts out.

The highlights of Notebook are the cinematography by Manoj Kumar Khatoi and the performances by Zaheer and Pranutan.

The chief attraction in this film is Kashmir. Music, which is the soul of any Bollywood romance is below par in this dull romance.

Notebook movie review: Kashmir is the real attraction of Zaheer Iqbal, Pranutan Bahl film

Notebook movie review: the chief attraction in this film is kashmir. music, which is the soul of any bollywood romance is below par in this dull romance..

Notebook Cast : Zaheer Iqbal, Pranutan Bahl Director : Nitin Kakkar Rating : 2.5/5

Notebook stars Zaheer Iqbal and Pranutan Bahl in lead roles.

There are perhaps only a few places on Earth that are as achingly beautiful as Kashmir -- the Dal Lake with boats snaking around, conifers calling out to the sky and a history that has blood splattered all over it. Set in the Valley, this is how Notebook begins as well -- with the death of an innocent, all seen through the haze of a dream.

Notebook has been directed by Nitin Kakkar.

The film establishes its ambitions early on -- it touches upon displacement and death, terror and a generation forced to live under the shadow of guns. However, it is in the execution that it falters; having touched on these important subjects, it rushes off to tie it all neatly into a romance. Notebook is just not the film that can carry it all off; it splutters and the effort becomes obvious.

Zaheer Iqbal’s Kabir Kaul is a displaced Kashmiri Pandit who returns to his roots, and to a school his father once established. A misfit anywhere but in Kashmir - his home, Kabir is a replacement for Pranutan Bahl’s Firdaus who left the post at the school a while back.

His guide and only friend at this school, set in the middle of nowhere, is a diary kept by Firdaus. As he deals with frogs in Sintex water tanks and a handful of apple-cheeked pupils who refuse to warm up to him, Firdaus’ story of finding herself runs parallel to his narrative.

He falls in love with Firdaus without ever meeting her - quite a departure from the millennial love stories Bollywood regularly churns out - only to find out that she is getting married in a few days. The two share hardly a few frames together as the notes exchanged through the diary are their only communication. A fundamentalist father who wants to push his academically brilliant son into militancy is how Kashmir’s political situation is reflected in the film.

The film’s two leads being launched by Salman Khan hardly get any time together; the romance is unremarkable but a gorgeous Kashmir and a gaggle of children are used intelligently by director Nitin Kakkar. After last year’s Laila Majnu, Notebook has again been shot entirely in Kashmir and cinematographer Manoj Kumar Khatoi has ensured every frame is bursting with beauty. The visual portrayal will stay with you long after you forget the sub-par love story.

After Loveyatri and Hero, the best thing we can say about Salman Khan’s latest protege, Zaheer Iqbal is that he is not Aayush Sharma. He may have acquitted himself in a masala movie but the epistolary romance is beyond his ken. Pranutan offers a restrained performance but rough edges do creep in.

Inspired by the Thai film, My Teacher’s Diary, the film begins well but starts slackening in pace. A good idea, it is the execution that falters. The second half especially could have done with some editing and better narrative tools than convenient twists that you can see coming a mile off. Notebook’s music - the soul of any romance that aims to launch newcomers -is its biggest letdown.

It is perhaps the sign of times that you begin by rooting for these lovers who still believe in pure love but want them to get on with it somewhere around interval. Yes, you found the diary. Yes, you have fallen in love. Now, find a computer, send her a Facebook request and meet at a Cafe Coffee Day (CCD) closest to you! Our patience is not what it used to be.

Notebook Movie Review: Salman Khan launches Zaheer Iqbal and Pranutan Bahl in a stunning romance

Notebook, starring pranutan bahl and zaheer iqbal, reminds you of old-world romance. nitin kakkar's directorial venture is a must watch for die-hard romantics..

Listen to Story

notebook 2019 movie review

Kakkar introduces two new faces with Notebook - Zaheer Iqbal and Pranutan Bahl. And the new kids on the block do not disappoint with their launch vehicle. Keeping with the simplicity of their characters, Pranutan and Zaheer bring out the innocence they are required to. With almost no scenes with each other till the very end, the chemistry is very much missing, but they end up putting up a good show with their individual share of screen time. Pranutan and Zaheer are here to stay.

If you are looking for some old-world romance this weekend, Notebook is definitely a recommended watch for you.

2.5 out of 5 stars for Notebook.
