Critic Reviews
-
Rachel Saltz, New York Times
An effective exercise in Bollywood high emotionalism.
-
Michael Dequina, TheMovieReport.com
While Johar's film does offer some extra food for thought within the conventional confines of an Indian commercial entertainment, it is, above all else, a love story--and a rather moving one at that.
-
Kimberly Gadette, Indie Movies Online
Though we don't need an odyssey verging on the length of Homer's, to the age-old query, 'Did you have a good trip?' the answer would be a definite 'yes.'
-
Craig Mathieson, sbs.com.au
Karan Johar's film is a message picture, and like many in that genre it runs overly long as it assiduously works to make its point.
-
Avi Offer, NYC Movie Guru
Captivating, well-acted and heartfelt with inspirational, important messages about tolerance, compassion, endurance, hope, honesty and, above all, the power of love.
