Love Sex Aur Dhokha
...the film is a worthy experiment created by one of Bollywood’s most imaginative and original directors. Let me warn you that it is a polarizing film. You’re going to either love it or you’re going to hate it.

Love Aaj Kal
...is an audacious, if flawed, ode to love as a quest for happiness and self-realization that often triggers conflicting emotions and unsettling impulses but never fails to enrich the soul.

Lootera
...a Bollywood miracle – a rare Mumbai film that is mounted on a lavish scale and yet dares not to play by the established norms of the marketplace.

London Paris New York
...yet another rom-com, which tries to be different, but doesn’t really succeed.

Lipstick Under My Burkha
...busts many a myth and serves the purpose of lifting the haze of prudery that generally surrounds the portrayal of women in Hindi cinema. It throws the whole shebang into the pot – the result is a big, big bang that is bound to ring in our ears for a long, long time.

Lekar Hum Deewana Dil
A tiresome tale of a pair of barely-out-of-their-teens lovers who elope before they are ready for the resultant ordeal, Lekar Hum Deewana Dil is a runaway mess.

Lakshmi
...a powerfully told inspirational tale that doesn’t brush the brutal reality of sexual exploitation under the rug.

Laali Ki Shaadi Mein Laddoo Deewana
...is a tedious rom-com that fails to shrug off its loopy quality despite a few entertaining performances

Laal Kaptaan
...an overlong film that takes a circuitous route to its climax and spends an awfully long time to get there...

Kyaa Super Kool Hain Hum
The film is ostensibly targeted at the teen segment and it might even find some takers there. But it barely passes muster as a sex comedy. It’s crude, crass and completely clueless.

Kya Dilli Kya Lahore
As a director Vijay Raaz, is not in search of solutions to the age-old cross-border conflicts. There is a deliberate staginess to the proceedings, a pronounced verbosity that never gets cumbersome, because, like I said, the writing has a distinct and distinctive 'quoting' edge without getting show-offy.

Kurbaan
Clearly Rensil is a talent to watch. He isn’t afraid to take risks but his ambition and good intentions aren’t matched by the sophistication that this project required.

Krrish 3
It passes muster because of the consistently high quality of its CGI and the undeniable power of a known franchise.

Kochadaiiyaan
...would've definitely looked magnificent in live action form than in the half baked animated format that only looks colourful, but not legendary.

Knock Out
...a mediocre filmmaker isn’t one who steals blatantly. He is one who steals blatantly and still can’t come up with a half decent film.

Kites
...the film doesn’t become more than the sum of its parts because the second half is flat and in places, outright foolish.

Kismet Love Paisa Dilli
The makers of KLPD might as well, as a statutory warning, have added another letter to the title to denote ASSAULT. Yes, this wannabe comic thriller is an all-out assault on the senses.

Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon
The obvious mismatch between aspiration and result is too glaring to be missed.

Kill Dil
It simply doesn't have enough soul and substance to be able to go all the way to the finish line with its grand design in one piece.

Kick
...provides a kick only sporadically. For Salman Khan fans, that should be good enough.

Ki & Ka
With its promising premise undermined by erratic execution, Ki And Ka is only intermittently watchable.

Khoobsurat
It is both funny and flashy, but its many flourishes are delivered in measures that religiously avoid excess.

Khiladi 786
...has nothing new to offer. It is cut from the same cloth that has yielded many of Akshay Kumar's recent vehicles. These films have sought to cash in on his rough and rowdy screen persona.

Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey
...a noble attempt at restoring glory to long-forgotten heroes but honestly, I felt more charged and patriotic in the last 40 minutes of Lagaan than I did in this entire film.

Khandaani Shafakhana
Watch the film not just for the tricky theme it tackles, but also for the way it does so.
