Please Go Away

There are movies that seem stuck in a time-warp – no matter how much times change, there does not seem to be any respite for the audience from the tearjerker content. When Kajol, Kareena, and Arjun Rampal start exploring the touchy topic of a broken family and new relationships, and the effects of the same on children, with the further angle of all of the said people being Indian diaspora, We Are Family seems to be a movie with a lot of promise. When Kajol gets detected with cancer, and the audience gets treated to a tsunami of melodrama, you are left with your head reeling from the senselessness of the portrayal and the sheer torment of the audience experience. This is a movie that takes on a topic of note, then goes out there and shoots itself. ‘nuff said
