  • Dil Dhadakne Do

    This is a classic example of how when a pertinent, contemporary story meets a stellar star cast and near perfect direction, it results in a wholesome film good enough to be taken home to mum.

  • 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.

  • Dhanak

    ...goes much beyond what one expected of it and actually manages to kind of temporarily transport you to a magical place where hopes don't die and the most impossible of wishes come true.

  • Delhi Belly

    This is a film that is sure to make you go red in the face, if not from embarrassment, surely from too much laughing.

  • Dedh Ishqiya

    The best part of this film is perhaps that there is no compromise whatsoever with the pace, the decadence, the beauty and the purity of the language that a setting of this kind demands.

  • Dear Dad

    This could have been a better film dealing with a real issue, but sadly, the script and direction did not seem confident enough to deal with it.

  • D-Day

    ...with an innovative story idea, adept editing, fantastic execution and good performances is immensely watchable, at least once.

  • Creature

    This film keeps you engaged alright. During its two-hour plus period, it makes you snigger, snort, laugh out loud at the unintentional humour and makes you gasp with disbelief at the absurdity of it all.

  • Court

    A film so real that you can almost touch it. Please go watch it. The audience needs such films more than the film needing the audience.

  • Coffee Bloom

    ...is an excellent example of how some filmmakers end up making pretentious, self indulgent unwatchable movies in the name of independent cinema.

  • Club 60

    ...this movie does make an attempt to touch your heart and wake you up to certain harsh realities of life.

  • Citylights

    ...even though the direction and performances are impressive, the script seems manipulated and contrived at certain points, as if designed to pull the emotional trigger of the audience.

  • 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.

  • Chennai Express

    The script might be totally devoid of common sense, but to give the due credit, Shetty’s typical flippity, casual humour and innovative action sequences, keeps you thrilled and involved in most part of it.

  • Chalk N Duster

    ...while the story and script belongs to the higher secondary classrooms, the level of execution doesn't even rise above the kindergarten standards.

    Jan 2016
  • Calendar Girls

    What worked for Bhandarkar in 2005 in 'Page 3' can obviously not work in 2015 because he is unimaginatively and rather cockily serving us the same dish in a different plate.

  • Bullett Raja

    ...sorely misses the Dhulia brand of attitude and sincerity in the script and the treatment. Someone bring the real man back please, we will forgive and forget this one.

    Nov 2013
  • Buddha In A Traffic Jam

    While, at points, you want to take certain issues seriously, at other points, the director and the scriptwriter have totally gone overboard with all seriousness, making it unwittingly funny.

  • Brothers

    If merciless and relentless crunching of bones gets your adrenalin pumping, this film is designed for you.
