- If you count yourself among people who'll be humming afterwards and anyone who wants a laugh, this one's for you. The music is woven into the story, not just laid on top.
- The mood
- Funny with heart.
- The pace
- Gives its people room to develop, at 2 hr 20 min.
- What might put you off
- It's in Hindi, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
