Hamari Adhuri Kahani

What works:

1. The core story - though on the surface, it seems to be a cliché around love, sacrifice and longing, it has it's soul in the right place.

2. Great performances by Vidya Balan and Rajkumar Rao.

Where it fails:

1. Fist half is too weak. Too many intertwined sub-plots and connected stories take long to setup the premise.

2. Lack of attention to obvious details: Majority of the story is in flashback, set 21 years back from today, which means it's set in 1994. Yet you get to see Samsung mobiles with front facing cameras, characters taking and sharing selfies, and worst of the lot, mobile internet and lightening fast internet in the midst of a jungle which can send a video file through in 5 secs!

Overall, a lost opportunity to create a good evergreen movie due to silly mistakes and gaps in script-writing....

It is a story of real Indian woman. Not the liberated, modern and independent woman but every other girl who despite being educated and employeed is buried under the tag of being a daughter, mother and wife. It tells real story of how difficult it is for them to find and feel love. It is a very sensitive movie and needs understanding of human pain and emotion. It is not some fun, masti, timepass movie for so called modern people who find everything traditional regressive. It shows the real situation not some make belief happy world. Yes, it is dialogue heavy and little filmy but that is expected of an emotional love story. Brilliant. Watch it.

Such a romantic movie. Music will touch your heart. dialogue are excellent and sometimes will make you cry. Vidya always good. She proved that still now she is better than all the young actress of bollywood.The best part of the movie is Emraan Hashmi. The way he delivered the dialogue with so much emotions its speechless. He is definitely one of the best actor in Bollywood now.Wow such a brilliant performance.don't know why it got so less star. But it worth of watching.yes direction is bit weak. But who cares about the the little negative points when its such a beautiful movie.loved watching the movie.

Actually even i had lost a bit of interest after looking at the overall rating. But i was awed after i actually watched it. The music is soothing, it brings a tear or two. I still have the effect in me. Honestly i wish this story was published as a book. It would have contained a lot of insight and more weight. But still, Mohit Suri has done a hell of a job. One of the recent best emotional movie I'v watched this is. Some of the scenes would just pinch a muscle in the heart, thanks to the music and contents of the scene. Bollywood is improving, what with the kinds of films like YJHD. Even though the ending of Ashiqui 2 had me in disappointment, the story telling and acting put up in this movie just made me register for IMDb and write a review. Emraan Hashmi, with his love-felt looks, brings out the pain of a person who hadn't felt love, and covered by the money he has. Rajkumar Rao is outstanding. I like his movies. His acts are subtle. Brings out the character and hasn't failed to do so in the movie. He makes us cry with his innocence in the 'real time' of the story. Vidya Balan is cute. I'd rather tell sweet. Conveys the plot perfectly. Overall it is a must watch for movie buffs who wouldn't want a movie to end. Thank You.
