At the end of his tether, he feels his fortunes turn when he lands the opportunity to care for four orphans who couldn't possibly be less appreciative. Irascible and resentful, they immediately begin plotting to take revenge on Ranbeer for adopting them and even complain loudly about their unwillingness to stay with him; meanwhile, Ranbeer struggles to communicate with the children. Everyone's lives change forever when a woman named Geeta arrives at the house and changes the atmosphere from dour to joyous and optimistic. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Michael Ordoņa, Los Angeles Times
As obvious as the film's uncredited sources are, it's a pleasant-enough diversion with a notable song score.
-
Maitland McDonagh, Time Out New York
It's not too cloying for a movie about orphans, angels and cute pets; pray that Hollywood doesn't buy the remake rights.
-
Frank Lovece, Film Journal International
A tearjerker-comedy family film that doesn't make you want to puke.
-
Maitland McDonagh, TV Guide's Movie Guide
Bollywood writer-director filmmaker Kunal Kohli's spin on Mary Poppins is less cloying than its high proportion of cute orphans, adorable animals and fairy-dusted whimsy.
-
Matthew Nestel, Boxoffice Magazine
All of the acting is pretty high school drama class...That being obvious, there are some technical leaps that make for fun cinema.
