Critic reviews and ratings

  • ...may not be as riveting as the 80s entertainers, yet it rides high on sheer nostalgia. Also, it presents a different kind of cinema in an age that lays great emphasis on high decibel, larger-than-life drama.

  • Though not path-breaking in any terms, the flavour of the film is a delectable balance between candyfloss and masala.

    Critic rating (?)

  • ...the actors’ resilience and talent manages to make this mediocre feature watchable.

    Critic rating (?)

  • ...the only reason we can recommend the film is Tabu alone. Watch it, if that’s reason enough for you to sample the rest of the mediocre fare.

    Critic rating (?)

  • ...is not as invigorating as one expects it to be. The film has some wonderful moments, some old-world charm, but the humour, at several points, falls flat. Especially towards the penultimate portions.

    Critic rating (?)

  • A wannabe-Hrishikesh Mukherjee film. It’s one of those simple one-line plots that if told well could be both entertaining and insightful. But, this is neither, mainly because its loud and tries too hard to keep it light.

  • ...feels like eating left-overs that have been reheated too many times. It’s not very appetizing.

    Critic rating (?)

  • The direction of Kedar Shinde is only average. In fact, the director seems to have been let down by a poor script at many places.

  • ...entertains in parts. The performances are good, but can't save the film.

    Critic rating (?)

  • A dramedy about groom-hunting that promises only to deceive.

    Critic rating (?)

  • ...is disappointment in all aspects except for Sharman & the music.

    Critic rating (?)

  • The inherently offensive nature of the film's central premise is shrouded under the director's feel-good treatment of the same.

    29

    Critic rating (?)

  • You just leave in a huff wondering, “Why Tabu, really!”

    Critic rating (?)

  • ...just leaves us, the audience, forever expected to be the suckers. So the film can be safely avoided, yeh baat toh pakki hai.

    Critic rating (?)

  • Tabu herself can't help being a good actress. But she clearly doesn't have the wherewithal to rescue a script this weak, loaded down with bad lines and a very weakly written character.

    19

    Critic rating (?)

  • ...is as inert at its centre as s clock that stopped ticking while you were sleeping. Avoid, even if you are a diehard Tabu fan. In fact please avoid IF you are Tabu fan.

    Critic rating (?)

  • Loaded with a plot, which at first endears, and then irritates, the film chugs along to its inevitable, predictable, boring end.

    19

    Critic rating (?)

  • But the biggest shocker here is Tabu. Why she, said to be extremely picky about her roles, said yes to this one will remain an enduring mystery.

    19

    Critic rating (?)

  • Everybody in the movie goes home happy, except the viewers.
