Tathastu

Sanju Baba best... Go for it.. don't check reviews

Expecting a good movie after having such a strong script like John Q and the director of Dus,was very disappointed.Average acting .Only one song ,which thankfully lessens the length of the film.Amisha Patel is a big joke in such a intense movie.Well best watched on DVD if you have the time and are a sanjay dutt fan.I would recommend watching the original John Q on DVD if you can,as it shows one of Denzels best roles.The plot on paper sounds very interesting ,how a man takes people hostage ,to save his son who needs a heart transplant and does not have the money to pay for his operation.The director should have worked harder on the screenplay and it had such an identifiable story line which if it had been made well ,could have been a good hit.

Anubhav Sinha after the crap DUS returns with worse TATHASTU the film which could be realistic and brilliant ends up being a typical Hindi film The film is a copy of JOHN Q and repeats the mistakes too The reality goes out of the window when Sanju storms the hospital with a small gun and keeps the people on hostage what follows is an uninteresting regular film where we get to see other side character's turmoil, an ever long sermon by Manoj Pahwa and the same politician scam

Direction by Anubhav Sinha is decent Camera-work is good

Sanju excels in the scenes showing distress and lives up to his role but when he takes the gun in his hand, his characterization fails, he comes across more as a goon and bhai rather then a poor father and his act fails but yet a brilliant perf otherwise Amisha is bad, her crying scene is comical and annoying Gulshan grover is good jaya Pradha is adequate rest are okay

I first saw this movie en route to India on the plane. I sobbed & found it all very heart-wrenching & I couldn't wait to return to Toronto to get a copy. Here is a master at the height of his creative power and he is so believable as the father. The movie worked for me & I thoroughly enjoyed it. It is as good as John Q. and I think that it is fair in life to have a passionate man & a reserved woman as a couple. Long live Sanjay & may his troubles disappear like feathers in the wind.I am puzzled that some think that it was not an enjoyable film. I disagree entirely and I think that it is one of the best films that I have seen for a long time. My judgement of any film rests on this fact: Has the actor convinced me that this story is true? I was entirely caught up in the plot and believed every bit of the story and found myself sobbing as the story unfolded and I believed that my response could only have come about because of the wonderful acting from Sanjay. I believe that he was well supported by the others but maybe he is like a star that outshines everyone else. Is there a female who is his equal and will we see her teamed with him in another movie when his troubles are over? Magnificent actors can seldom find the right partner because they outshine everyone else.

One of the most badly made movies. Apart from Sanjay Dutt everyone else overacted. Amisha Patel did'nt have an idea of what she was doing. Screenplay was very weak. I don't think so a director was required for this movie. Instead of wasting resources on such movies, it should have been used for better purposes. On the first day fourth show more than have the theater was empty. It is highly recommended to avoid this one.It is disappointing right from the beginning. there was'nt a single moment where the audience could enjoy, apart from laughing on the serious scenes.Audience which has paid for its admission has a right to demand for better stuff.
