Watch Bezubaan Ishq only if you are a die-hard romantic and have nothing better to view. The visuals help to break the monotony of watching a staid and predictable story unfurl.
Read the full reviewThis over two-hour saga is an absolute eyesore and makes for tedious viewing. It is a far cry from the rom-com it is touted to be.
Read the full reviewWith all the tropes of the romance genre weaved into it, Ishqedarriyaan is a typical contrived, mushy and predictable tale of a Prince Charming and a damsel in distress.

Read the full review...what the director does not realise is that too much masala could spoil his film, at least for the audience. Overall, the tragedy of Katti Batti lies in the fault of its director.

Read the full reviewThe title of the film, "Chauranga," which means four colors, does not justify itself properly. Equally limp is the film in its ability to deliver a strong message.
Read the full reviewOverall, "Fitoor" does not live up to the great expectations you have for the film.
Read the full reviewBut overall the shift of tones while blending a fictional, inter-faith romance with a historical natural disaster, the film suffers to some degree from the maker's romantic and idealistic ideas and thereby leaves you unsatisfied.
Read the full reviewPacked with emotional tropes, the focus of the series is more on the rag-to-riches narrative.
