The Archies Review: 'The Archies' released on Netflix, how was the debut of Suhana Khan, Agastya Nanda, and Khushi Kapoor?

Dec 07,2023


 
The film The Archies remained in the headlines since its announcement. The reason was the star cast of this film. With three-star kids coming together in the film, it is natural to be curious.

Suhana Khan, daughter of Bollywood king Shahrukh Khan, Agastya Nanda, grandson of Hindi cinema megastar Amitabh Bachchan, producer Boney Kapoor, and his late second wife and superstar Sridevi's younger daughter Khushi Kapoor have made their acting debut with The Archies. The film is based on the characters of the famous American comic The Archies.


What is the story of The Archies?
The story is set in the sixth decade of the last century. It begins with Archie Andrews (Agastya Nanda) narrating the history of the fictional town Riverdale.

This city located in North India has a large number of Anglo Indians. This is where Archies, a group of seven friends Betty (Khushi Kapoor), Veronica (Suhana Khan), Jughead (Mihir Ahuja), Reggie (Vedang Raina), Ethel (Dot) and Dilton (Yuvraj Menda) live, who are having fun with their Weaving dreams of the future.

Veronica has returned from London, while Archies is planning to go to London. Betty and Veronica are best friends. Both like Archies. The Green Park located in this city is not only the heart of the city but also the history of Riverdale.

The existence of Green Park is under threat. The reason is that Veronica's rich businessman father wants to build a hotel there. These seven friends do not like this. He gets involved in the campaign to save the park. Veronica also comes with him in this.

How is the screenplay of the film?
The story written by Ayesha Devitre Dhillon, Reema Kagti, and Zoya Akhtar is simple. This can be very relatable to those people who would have been teenagers in the sixth decade of the last century. At that time there were neither mobile phones nor internet media. In such a situation, things like going on a picnic with friends, chatting in a cafe, and spending time in the park will refresh old memories.

Zoya has worked very closely with the environment, lifestyle, food habits, and culture of that period. The issue chosen is environment, which is relevant. However, the author has not gone into depth on this issue. Similarly, Archie says that he likes both Veronica and Betty. That incident could have been expanded a bit, but the writers dealt with it in a light-hearted manner. There are many dialogues in English.

Since this is a musical film, songs, and music are an important part of the story. The tracks by Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy, Ankur Tiwari, The Islanders, and Dot (Aditi Sehgal) are groovy, especially 'Dishoom Dishoom,' 'Sunoh,' and 'Va Va Voom.' The main attraction in the songs is the choreography of Basco Caesar and Ganesh Hegde, which makes the visual structure captivating.
