David Chute, L.A. Weekly
Dil Bole Hadippa! is a sad commercial place holder of a movie, a product of an industry that has treading water for some time, now, patiently waiting for the next big trend.

Great Movie, with great Songs. This Movie made me definetily Yash Raj Fan. I mean after watching "Ajaa Nachle" I gave many of Yash Raj Movies a chance and it turned out that his Movies are no Remakes. Original Stories.

An absolutely hilarious movie!! Veera dreams of becoming a superstar in the world of cricket, ever since watching her favorite star players as a child. Playing in the fields in her spare time, she remarkably excels at batting left and right hand. After the town's local cricket team loses a great match, she inspires to join the team and pursue her dreams of stardom. Being a female, she is barred from entering and begins to lose faith until an abrupt opportunity allows her to audition for a spot on the team, as young "Veer". Veer/Veera are one, and the same. With slim chances of playing, she decides to embark on a wild adventure of upholding her position and concealing her true identity. Until she meets the young captain of the cricket team, it is more trouble than she would like when she begins to like Rohan. ********************************************************************************* Here is a movie that centrally depicts a character daring to dream beyond limitations, beyond the boundaries of 'so-called normality'. Veera dares to dream big, and not recede from the negative remarks and comments. Fantastic music!! Tons of laughter! Rani is truly sensational in the numerous unique roles that she casts for. Great cast- Rani Mukherjee, Shahid Kapoor, Anupam Kher, and Rakhi Sawant. Definitely worth seeing!
