Manoj Sachdeva
Alia is the highlight of the movie. Imtiaz Ali's direction is as usual marvelous. One time watch. Atleast 20 minutes bigger than it should have been but still, the film doesn't bore you till the end.

Is this A Art Movie

Yes, definately its a art that spoil my precious time... Worst movie till date by Imtiaz, acting part is complete zero as actor overacts a lot here. N Alia please choose good script if you really want to make ur career in Bollywood. This movie was such a big time bore that 3 among the audience were preferring sleeping over watching this torturing movie.. Randeep Hooda became one of my favorite actor after Jannat 2 but this movie was not for him....

Rating 1/10
