About
If you want a lavish, emotional romance with intense drama and standout performances, Devdas should land well; Not for you if you dislike melodrama, long runtimes, or musicals—especially if you found titles like Padmaavat or Veer Zaara too much.
Pros: lavish period drama; powerful romance; memorable performances | Cons: heavy melodrama; uneven musical pacing; slow for some viewers
