  • Welcome Back

    The good thing is that this film. like its original, is totally unabashed and unpretentious about its silliness and randomness.

  • Chillar Party

    ...a children's film so simplistic that it could have been very well made by a child. But then, I guess that's quite an achievement too in an industry where children's film generally means yet another moral lesson for the hapless kids.

  • Bol

    ...makes you think, even long after you have finished watching the film. Something not that many films can boast of.

  • Dilwale

    Even if you are not a Rohit Shetty fan, watch this for the chemistry between SRK and Kajol which refuses to simmer down even after all these years.

  • Raman Raghav 2.0

    It is dark, very dark and deprived of even a shred of dignity. It makes you feel nauseated at the shocking spread of depravity served to you. But then again, it is unique storytelling.

  • Shamitabh

    Watch this movie for those sequences when the two leading men are on screen together — men as different as could be, but yet bound by the power of their undeniable talent.

  • Dharam Sankat Mein

    Director Fuwad Khan should get the credit for choosing a sensitive subject with the right kind of intention, but unfortunately, the end result is far from what it could have been.

  • Mary Kom

    All this film needed was a bit more guts to chart its own path with Mary Kom herself as an inspiration. But sadly, they chose to play to the gallery instead. Mary and Priyanka deserved a better film.

  • Roy

    Debutant director Vikramit Singh thankfully steers away from the obvious and the melodramatic and chooses to present this interesting concept with a soft, subtle and delightfully imaginative filter.

  • Jai Gangaajal

    Jha yet again successfully revisits the world he’s so familiar with, the rampant hooliganism, the fascinating and colourful lingo that we are all familiar with, largely thanks to Jha’s earlier films.

  • Speedy Singhs

    If you are looking for originality or anything deeper, this is not for you. Go for it only if you are looking for a light but forgettable watch.

  • Zubaan

    The film holds a lot of promise but doesn’t really live up to it. A more clear-minded script as well as a steadier hand at direction would have done wonders to this film.

  • Don 2

    The script apart from being predictable also has loopholes galore. The characters are sketchey.

  • Aarakshan

    Given how extensively the film talks about the commercialisation of education, I think someone should take up the cause of commercialisation of inflammatory issues. While Jha has succeeded in garnering enough attention for Aarakshan as a result, he has failed to give this sensitive issue its due.

    If you are itching for a masaledar movie, watch this one. It is funny, intentionally and unintentionally.

  • Hamari Adhuri Kahani

    With a protagonist so out of sync with the time and age she lives in, dialogues (Shagufta Rafiq), which seemed to belong to some other bygone era and somehow strayed into 2015, forced intensity and a story defying logic, this film is a disappointment.

  • Prem Ratan Dhan Payo

    With a screenplay that's so lacklustre, dialogues so mediocre and settings so outdated, it might have been less torturous had the film not been painfully long at close to three hours.

  • Not A Love Story

    The film has some nice moments, only if it was not spoilt by the jarring background score and oh yes, those designed to drive-you-up-the-wall camera movements.

  • Double Dhamaal

    Illogical, at times crass, double meaning dialogues, and of course, the stupidity of it all, this film has all the recipes for a disaster. But it's the mad humour that's the saving grace.

  • Housefull 3

    You enter a theatre expecting the film to be silly and absurd. And even then, you end up laughing in amazement at the level of nonsense that it reaches.
