Stumped to see some great reviews here. I watched the movie to enjoy it as a musical. I am s great fan of ARR. But he disappointed me twice, both with music snd story. The direction is good, at least he has done justice by keeping it fresh and unique narration. Actors have also done good job (debut actors). Story really disappointed me to the core. Music is not ARR-level. Commendable work by the director, he takes you to imagination world despite a lackluster .

I was actually shocked by the imdb rating and thank god I haven't watched this by the assurance of that rating, In that way I am less upset for watching this. There is nothing to larger part of the extent to be engaged with point. The approach of the film from the sounding of ARR(good) to cinematography(very imrpessive) to art direction(fresh and artistic) were so unique but the screenplay was routine and the flashback of heros childhood was obvious. The point was interesting until the conflict between hero and heroines father but there after its like an same old concept like Challenge (a telugu movie of chiranjeevi) and there wasnt any backing up by gripping screenplay as well. However, the last 15minutes, the way the main concept of the film has been linked to politics etc was very good. Its like you can watch first 20minutes and last 20minutes and you will be left with some satisfaction, watching it completely gives you that middle part of 1hr with routine stuff and emotions. Its an ok movie and definitely not worth of almost 9 IMDB Rating.

If you are a admirer as well a fan of art that may be music,art, visionary.... this is for you because it is a experience for motivation and knowing the true fact of art which is being eaten away by technology so called world.

I was having a lot of expectations from the movie, as this was AR Rahman's movie. It might have not met all my expectations but though it was a decent watch.

The movie plot revolves around Jai(Ehan Bhat) who has only two priority, Music and his love Sophie. His girlfriend's rich father Sanjay Singhania(Ranjit Barot) challenges him to compose 100 songs and only after then he is allowed to marry Sophie. Jai with hi friend sets out on a journey to Shillong to write songs but he gets attracted to a Jazz singer Sheela(Lisa Ray) and then a betryal and an accident changes Jai life.

The movie primary focus should be on music and here AR Rahman has done a really good job by providing good music in abundance, be it a Jazz song or a classical note. But somehow I personally feel the music does not connected with the story that well.

Maybe the story was a little complex. There were so many things going on with story, the visual treatments, the dark side of the story, but it was all not very convincing. The writing could have been much better. Director Vishwesh Krishnamoorthy tried to tell the story in a sensitive way but not succeeded.

Expectations were there from a musical genius like Rahman, he impressed also but only in couple of songs. Overall music was good but not what one would expect from Rahman.

Ehan Bhat looks good and tries his best to give an honest performance. For the most part of the movie he really delivers a good performance. Edilsy Vargas looked decent and delivered a nice performance.

Overall, Rahman could have added some more quality songs. Though couple of songs in the movie are actually nice but there isn't any song which will be with you for a long time.

Utterly disappointed with the movie. Acting wise the movie was bad but i was disappointed with the music also. The filmmaker may have thought that it was kind of philosophical and creative but actually it was more of a childish play.

Such a mindblowing experience... GOOSEBUMPS at the end!

A feel good musical, blended with mixed emotions, genres, and technology. And a tailor made script so as to befit the high and lower octaves plying the audience through a montages of musical genres depicting each emotion such as Humnawa (western classical) portrays a sofasticated blend of music with 5th generation tech world of AI, Nayi Nayi (rock) represents cheers of youthfulness, Sofia (soft rock) represents love, Sai (soul) takes us through the wings of devotion, o meri Chand (another soul) reminds us of a mother's lullaby, jwalamukhi (epic rock) underscores rage, stubbornness, and ones determination, o ashiqa (another epic rock) marks the void created by motherhood and Soja (jazz) portrays shades of desire, and enigma. This way the situations that takes us through out the movie are interposed in such a way to acquaint the audience through a coaster of musical genres nothing much on note as the story is just old wine Ina new bottle. However there are some take away such as individual performances from Ehan, Lisa, Ranjit Barot, Edilsy, Rahul Ram, Ashwat, and Tenzing. The storyline is just mediocre but the music is indeed refreshing, elegant, diverse, and riveting. On the whole it's worth a one time watch, but the music is resonant.

The story has no logic. Things happen randomly.

It could have been a great movie about an artist in search of inspiration. But what we get is a hotchpotch of the cliched plots.

Even the cinematography was confusing. Sometimes it felt like I am watching a horror movie.

It's journey of a musician and and his self discovery. Good movie.

I enjoyed this movie for 2 things. Lovely cinematography and music.

I hated the direction. It felt like he doesn't know how to get it done right. The editing was awful as well. Some things felt out of place.

Some of the actors were good but I wouldn't say brilliant. But the girls father (Ranjith) was the worst of all.

I'm not saying this is a bad movie. But these bits really irritated me that being a die hard fan of a r rahman it didn't turn out how I wish it should've turned out.

Nothing in this movie, poor storyline, poor execution if it is not a AR Rahman product this one doesn't get anything. Overrated movie, fan's simply giving high rating which doesn't deserve one.

Music maestro comes from the heart. Worth it. Also the story is something unusual which is not shown on big screen.

A tune goes forward behind a scene which abruptly continues from a suspense. We dont know why that happened, 5-10 minutes later the reason for the event unfolds and people who keenly listen to the music can only understand that the same melody plays with a different orchestration. This trend is spread over all through the movie. The movie has many such occasions. Dont ask me where. Watch again if you didnt listen. It is a brilliant movie.

I would rate one mark lesser than 10 for having too many such loops.

In general, people who notice your own life can feel, life takes us back and forth, it is not always linear, such is this beautiful movie and the music that keeps flowing. Ebbs and bounds. Life is a musical, me being a pass-and-fail musician.

99 Songs sets out to be a soul-stirring musical journey but stumbles midway through its ambition. The film had immense potential, a musician's pursuit of love and inspiration could've been deeply moving. Instead, the second half spins off into an unfocused mess that leaves you more confused than connected.

That said, AR Rahman's musical score is undeniably beautiful, even if not his best. The cinematography is breathtaking, and the film looks like art, but sadly, the storytelling doesn't carry the same harmony. Performances are sincere, but the writing and editing lack the emotional depth needed to tie it all together.

If you're here for a visual and musical experience, you'll find moments to enjoy. But if you're expecting a powerful narrative to match the soundtrack, this one might feel like a missed beat.

99 SONGS is nothing new in terms of story.

Only visually good looking and some songs are good. Male lead is just okay, female lead had a very little to do. The character of the father of the female lead is too much irritating.

The 2nd half is quite better than 1st one. Music lovers may like this film.

HONESTLY SPEAKING I didn't like it.

Available on Netflix & JioCinema.

Every bit of movie is art in itself. Go for it guys. Don't miss it.

ARR please focus on your music rather than making this sort of crap, We are already seeing lot of crap in bollywood by useless famous actors. You are a great musician and i will always be your fan. But please dont make movies. The story really sucks.

I truly wish I could have seen this movie in theaters.

The music was amazing, especially "Jwalamukhi" and "O Aashiqa".

The story was simple but the music and characters were crafted in a way to bring flow to the story.

Overall, a sensual experience of mixed emotions.

Movie is gud but not like I can only imagine ( I think 99 songs is inspired by that movie).

It's an ARR film, expectations ran extremely high...if nothing else the music should blow our minds. Couldn't be further from the truth. The actors were amateurish, the direction left much to be desired, the story was ancient, done to death, track...Music, which one felt would score over all other aspects was A BIG LET DOWN. Barely a single hummable number.....even the ARR signature rhythm and gusto was missing as was the pathos and melody of earlier films like Roja, Bombay, Rangeela and of course the internationally Jai Ho. Just give it a miss and continue to believe in ARR.

Today I watched 99 Songs movie. It has amazing musical experience. Don't miss this masterpiece musical journey. Music magician AR Rahman sir arrived that he is a best music director in india. All songs will blow your mind and give you goosbumps. If you are a music lover then just go . The writing of the movie is also good it has new touch .

Don't miss it ..

A R Rahman Sir 🙏😍💚

Went to watch this film without any expectations and came back with heart full of visuals, poetry and music.

The film deep dives into Rahman's world. The realm, the places you have never been to. A no-nonsense film with best cinematography, perfect casting, unbelievable background score & songs (obviously).

What a debute @arrahman @vishweshk @ehanbhat.
