Tathastu

Yes, this is a remake of John Q. Yes, you cannot help compare to Denzel. However, this is definitely one of the worst movies of Sanjay Dutt. He has given worst performance. He is at the bottom of his game in this movie. You cannot help but keep on forwarding the movie in case u are watching it on computer,sorry for you if you find yourself in a theatre while watching. I have seen John Q and was wondering if it will be a waste of time. However, as movie progressed Sanjay has really made it stupid to watch . Recently there has been a string on nonsense movies coming ,this movie tops the list.The plot is completely meaningless. I just hope the choice of actors were better. Amisha is not suited for the role at all.Amisha was not able to bring or compliment the emotions needed. Even her make up was not suited for the role. She is pretty dumb to adapt to roles. I saw her teesri aankh. Even there she was lame. For her role she should have made an attempt to learn the sign language. So in this respect this was a half hearted attempt by the director and producer. I think failure of movie can be blamed on the whole team.I am still repenting why i saw this movie and why the hell m even commenting on it.May God forgive me ...............

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

Yes, this is a remake of John Q. Yes, you cannot help compare to Denzel. However, this is a definite top 10 movies of Sanjay Dutt. He has given solid performance. He is on top of his game in this movie. You cannot help but be involved. I have seen John Q and was wondering if it will be a waste of time. However, as movie progressed Sanjay has really made it worth the watch (both time and money!). Recently there has been a string on nonsense movies coming. So I was impressed. However the plot is bit radical especially a made for Indian audience ending. However, I don't think this is anyone else but Sanjay's movie! I just hope the choice of actors were better. Amisha is not suited for the role at all. I think Antra would have done better. Amisha was not able to bring or compliment the emotions needed. Even her make up was not suited for the role. She is pretty dumb to adapt to roles. I saw her teesri aankh. Even there she was lame. For her role she should have made an attempt to learn the sign language. So in this respect this was a half hearted attempt by the director and producer. I don't think failure of movie can be blamed at Sanjay. At best he is the only asset to the movie.

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.

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
