“It’s very much a Hindi film, but updated and delivered with conviction and style.”
Top film critic of the Village Voice, Simon Abrams, praised the movie by stating,
“Kapoor naturally exudes a kittenish charm that not even a violet, skintight, leopard-print dress and equally purple dialogue can entirely diminish.”
Roger Moore of the Mclatchy-Tribune News Service had a different opinion. He gave it a 1.5 out of four rating and commented:
“This patchwork script had a certain promise to it, packed with characters and story threads that don’t really lead anywhere. But the film has a decidedly Eastern sense of pace. It’s slower than slow…”
Overall, it’s a great movie to spend time with your friends and family.

this movie was very slow and though the story was nice but fusing aamir ‘s married life made no sense and the movie was at very slow pace. below expectation as it was an aamir khan film
