  • Raavan

    Not everyone can deliver a hit every time. But you don't really expect trash from a director of the class of Mani Ratnam.

  • Ek Villain

    What you get is a well-planned scene sequence with a sharp storyline.... But only in the director's mind. On screen, he executes a mess.

  • Kamaal Dhamaal Malamaal

    The Kamaal, I guess is Priyadarshan going on the sets with no script in hand. The Dhamaal would be the artistes had on sets not knowing what to expect in the next scene or shot. Malamaal... I don't think anyone will be.

  • Paathshaala

    ...its time for the entire production unit to go back to school. The basics of filmmaking are all wrong. There is no script, no screenplay and the plot is so unbelievable that you almost want to reach out and slap the characters on screen.

  • Bumboo

    Let me warn you, there's no logic, no dialogues, no script and at times when the cast do not know what to do, they just do what they want to do. There's just screaming. Lots of it. There are also farts, puke, burps and even gay positions, all very repulsive.

  • I Me Aur Main

    On hindsight, maybe a younger actor would have been able to pull off this flick. But then again, if the script is flawed, no actor can do a Houdini.

  • Paranthe Wali Gali

    Theatre is a creative medium and converting thoughts meant for a play into a 'moving picture' require skills of another sort. The intention was to make a good film, but this never got translated into one.

  • Besharam

    Nothing works in the movie. Not even Ranbir is able to change the fortunes of this script that goes from bad to worse and then even worse.

  • Ghost

    At least, the Ramsay brothers, whose name is synonymous with horror films, had a set formula which made sense. This one is comical in its approach.

  • Ranbanka

    A decent watch, but movies with a theme like this has passed their shelf life. In the 90s these types of films were a staple Bollywood diet; today tastes have changed.

  • Zid

    Cut the crap guys, even if this is a murder mystery, leave some room for the audience to figure out what is happening, rather than showing us something very different from what the real story is.

  • Gulaab Gang

    Two big names with proven credentials in Hindi Cinema; a subject on women power. A win-win combination for any director. It's not possible to go downhill from here. But that is precisely where director Soumik Sen goes from here. He is in a tearing hurry to make a hash of things.

  • Hey Bro

    That's the tragedy when people take their proximity to the industry as something like 'baap ka raaj'. I'm a choreographer, so now I will act. Or, I'm a singer, what stops me from playing the lead? This seems to be the thinking of those firmly entrenched in the industry.
