Sweet Dreams Movie Story

The film seems loosely inspired by a Canadian romantic-comedy movie titled ‘In My Dreams.’ The narrative revolves around two people who meet each other in their dreams. However, then they start searching for them in real life. Kenny portrayed by Amol Parashar is an influencer and also runs a business. Ever since his last breakup ten months ago, Kenny has been dreaming of a girl named Dia played by Mithila Palkar every night. These dreams are romantic and sweet, leaving Kenny wishing he could meet her in real life. He even opens up to his therapist played by Faye D’Souza about these recurring dreams, but her advice to move on doesn’t seem to help.

Dia, who works in corporate is in a committed relationship with her boyfriend played by Meiyang Chang. However, just like Kenny, Dia also dreams about him every night. She becomes increasingly eager to find this mysterious man, wondering if ‘he’ could truly be her ‘dream guy.’ As bizarre as the situation is, both of them decide not to give up. Despite their persistent efforts, neither of them has any idea about what they will do if they happen to meet the person by chance.
The story of Sweet Dreams takes a turn when the two cross paths unexpectedly during separate getaways in Alibaug. During the trip, Kenny meets a gorgeous girl, played by Sauraseni Maitra. She’s supportive of Kenny’s quest to find Dia and motivates him to follow his heart, even though she secretly harbors feelings for him. She is afraid Kenny will move on from her once he finds the girl he’s been dreaming about. Kenny and Dia’s journey unfolds as they, with the help of their friends, use the power of social media to finally find each other. What is written in their destiny? Watch the film to find out.
Sweet Dreams Movie Review

In this 1-hour-49-minute romantic drama, director Victor Mukherjee captures the modern-day relationship and their aspirations. Though hypothetically, the story is refreshing and engaging and offers a unique take on romance.
The performances are the highlights of Sweet Dreams. Amol Parashar’s portrayal feels natural and relatable. He seamlessly embodies the character of a man torn between living in the real world and finding an escape in his dreams. Mithila Palkar is charming and confident in her role. She brings authenticity to the character Dia. The way she portrays a girl who is confused about her career and her romantic choices makes it convincing and relatable. Sauraseni Maitra also stands out with a solid performance, adding maturity to the story. Other actors Meiyang Chang, Faye D’Souza, and Mohini Shimpi did their part well.

However, Sweet Dreams struggled to deliver on its true potential. The plot is fresh, but the execution falls flat. The narrative doesn’t lead to a satisfying conclusion. The supporting cast does not add any meaningful contributions to the story. The moment when Kenny and Dia met could have been more heartwarming. The music is mediocre and unable to elevate the film’s emotions. But a refreshing tale of dreams and drama keeps you engaged throughout.
Final Verdict

Sweet Dreams is a refreshing watch. An engaging film resonates with the audience but a crisp execution could have made it a more beautiful romantic tale. Still, a decent watch for people who like to see romantic drama.
