Mere Dost Picture Abhi Baki Hai movie review: what critics say (4)
What critics say Critics are largely negative: none of the 4 rated critics gave it 3.5 or more, 3 gave it 2 or less. Criticised: the performances.
Critic Score appears after 5 rated reviews. 4 of 5 so far.
In the end, the idealistic Amar Joshi does get manipulated by the big bad world of Bollywood and thrives in mediocrity. We just hope the audience doesn't fall for such tackiness!
Read the full reviewMere Dost Picture Abhi Baki Hai is long, winding movie that makes you wonder "Picture Aur Kitni Baki Hai?" It's only Rajpal Yadav's earnest acting that is saving grace.
Read the full reviewIt is riddled with clich©s, stereotypes, some very distasteful item numbers and repulsive acting. It employs many out-of-work actors, in seemingly unnecessary roles.
Picture Abhi Baaki Hai is an interesting premise gone awfully wrong in the direction department.

How is the fan score worked out?
It is a Fair Score, not a plain average. Votes from brand new accounts, accounts that have rated only one film, several votes from one network, sudden bursts, and accounts that only ever give 1 or 5 stars count for less. A few early ratings cannot swing it. Nothing is hidden: we show the star bars above.
