Teree Sang is a story which tackles the topic of lack of parental love towards the children. It is a stark reality which parents of teenagers do not realize. Today’s parents are either busy with their business or profession – while the children grow up without the love of their parents around when they need them the most. Teree Sang movie review…
We have here a story about a 15 year old school girl who misses her parents love. Maahi (Sheena) is the only child of rich parents (Rajat Kapoor and Neena Gupta).
She has a dream home and whatever a schoolgirl can desire. Yet, it isn’t she wants, but desires love and attention from her parents. Her father spends the day on his professional work thinking that he has sacrificed a lot to give his daughter all the luxuries of life. But he is wrong and all that his daughter is craving for is her parents’ presence and affection.
She strikes friendship with a boy in her neighborhood Kabir aka Kukko (Ruslaan) whose parents (Kaushik and Sushmita Mukherjee) belong to the lower strata of the society.
Their friendship turns into love and Maahi gets pregnant and all hell breaks loose. While Maahi wants to keep the baby, her father opposes it. The girl’s father is a rich lawyer and threatens to sue the boy’s father, who is a rickshaw driver.
She then elopes with Kabir so that she can deliver her child. The kids run away from home to create their own love nest. What further complications it all leads to forms the rest of the film.
Teree Sang has an impressive first half but post interval, the plot drags with the cliche of the boy and girl trying to make ends meet in their ‘home in the mountains’. Haven’t we seen that in numerous movies?
Even so, Teree Sang is an honest attempt at addressing a very serious issue.
Sheena Shahabadi who plays Maahi Suri, the young 15-year-old portrays well the anxiety a 15-year-old girl goes through. Ruslaan Mumtaz as Kukoo her boyfriend is fine and so is their fresh pair. Others in the film, Rajat Kapoor and Neena Gupta as Maahi’s parents, Satish Kaushik, and Sushmita Mukherjee as Kukoo’s parents have carried out their parts very naturally.
Satish Kauchik as an actor in Teree Sang has impressive moments playing a rickshaw driver.
The combined effort of Pritam and Virag Mishra for lyrics are just average so is the music by Sachin and Jigar. Anu Malik and Bappi Lahari have also composed the music. The songs are rendered by Shaan, Anmol Malik, Master Salem, Raja Hasaan and Sumedha.
The movie Teree Sang has a young, adult feel and parents of teenagers will learn a lot from this eye opening, yet most common drift seen in present times. .
