So-So by Taran Adarsh, IndiaFM ... At the box-office, the rich emotional quotient [last 40 minutes] should appeal to ladies/families and help the film gather momentum slowly, but surely.... full review

Thumbs down by Deepa Gahlot, Sify Movies ...Barjatya attempts a return to the same formula... full review

Thumbs down by Nikhat Kazmi, Times of India ...the film has no story whatsoever and is just a plain and simple documentation of something as banal as an engagement to a vivah... full review

It was one of the best movie, i have seen. I did read an similar comment as urs in rediff, but when i checked on the comments, all were replying that it was good. really it was an excellent & clean movie. May b if heroines come in (only) handkerchief - u would posted a good comment, now enough of glamour .. glamour, lets talk of pure, perfect movie. really an hit movie, bcoz it was housefull, and at the same multiplex, tickets for dhoom2 were avaialable. an excellent movie to watch. please do not pass wrong comments

There is something more than glamour
Thanks for reading this,
Naresh

Hey naresh,

Its great that you liked the movie. But, such movies don't work for me.

But, its pretty unfair to say "May b if heroines come in (only) handkerchief - u would posted a good comment".

I just wanted to clarify, I certainly did not dislike the movie because the women were fully-clad. Far from it.

It was supposed to be a romantic movie, and I did not find any of the situations romantic. Neither was there any attempt to be novel.

Thanks for stopping by.

Vikas:

He he... nice review... Actually, rather than nauseating, I found this movie extremely comical.. esp those typical filmi dialogs... one of the funniest is when Shahid steps into his dad's office, everyone looks at him wierdly... and then, his dad says, 'beta tumhare liye ek rishta aaya hai' with great enthu... not just that, most mundane stuff is stylized to border comedy... Do you do this for a living or this ur passion?

meetu:

:) Vikas! This is my passion which I'm hoping to monetize better.

pankaj chandrakar:

i don't know who has written this bakwas review of such a beautiful movie..bt a thing i would love 2 tell this reviewer that he or she must leave 2 speculate abt movies as he or she doesn't have any sense ..or may b that he or she doesn't know much abt india..i would tell him or her 2 go to mathura,jhansi, bhopal, raipur ,patna ,ujjain 2 see the cultural existense as the person who has written this has lack of knowledge abt our culture...anyway this movie is awesme..i think even yash chopra can not make such vivah''..i think sooraj ji has his own cinematic sensibility..which is adorable...sooraj ji hats off to you..kindly making such type of beautiful movie...v r proud of you 4 making vivah n a thig sooraj ji don't think abt this type of reviewer just think abt our type of viwer...
