jackwilson (True Core Lover): Ravi K Chandran’s cinematography is outstanding. Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy’s music is pleasing and isn’t overdone. Sharmishta Roy’s art direction is decent but the flood-hit village could have been better designed than those tacky studio sets. *20-02-10 - 01:08:43
jackwilson (True Core Lover): Clearly having its spotlight on Khan, Shah Rukh does a decent job in playing an innocent autistic Rizvan who is a mobile encyclopedia on jargons, repeats words in his speech, takes every spoken line literally and doesn’t directly confront any person. But one can’t deny that there’s a certain degree of Shah Rukh (the star) still visible in Rizvan (the character). *20-02-10 - 01:09:12
jackwilson (True Core Lover): Whether Shah Rukh is unable to completely get over his set image 0r Karan Johar wanted to retain certain level of Shah Rukh Khan in the character is debatable. But it’s still a safe bet because there is an endearing charm to the actor/character. His performances starts off as rehearsed but you soon adapt to his act. *20-02-10 - 01:09:30
jackwilson (True Core Lover): It’s refreshing to watch Kajol after a while and she shows the same spunk in her act. The script, however, restricts the scope of chemistry between SRK and Kajol beyond a point as Karan Johar pushes the genre beyond romance. Everyone in the supporting cast from Jimmy Sheirgill, Sonya Jehan to Zarina Wahab are fair enough but have minimal scope. Tarun Mansukhani hams in the four scenes that he gets. *20-02-10 - 01:09:58
