...fails miserably because of a myopic script and direction. Its production values like Paoli’s styling are tacky, as loud and superficially glossy like the film’s sensibility.

Vicky Donor
The film that has so much going for it that includes a director (Shoojit Sircar, who made the sensitive Yahaan) with an evolved understanding of storytelling, lilting music, quirky script and characters ultimately goes askew in the end with its choice to play to the gallery.

...the small-town Punjab he serves up with its dialect, slang, mannerisms and minor characters that are stereotyped and unmemorable yet real, coupled with the performance he gets out of his lead makes it a film well-worth it at all.

Blood Money
There is a unique amateurish-ness the entire film is drenched in. From awkward romantic moments to extremely hammy acting. From unflattering wardrobes (of everyone) to worse camera angles. From bookish, uncomfortable dialogues to the forced emotions.

It is an original and honest attempt at creative exploration, but one that unfortunately does not really come alive most of the time.
