kapoor and Sons- Initially, after watching the 1st trailer of the movie, I didn't expect so much from it as the trailer was reflecting the ordinary family drama with lots of useless "wear and tear", but to my surprise, Kapoor and Sons undoubtedly surpassed my expectations with its great logical and touching storyline together with excellent performances from the actors which works like an icing on the cake.
The story is about the differences in a family and how the family members come with the answers to their ignored questions. The most affecting thing about the movie is its direction, the movie goes so smoothly and appealingly that it binds you with itself and you don't be able to slide your attention for a bit. You started finding a connect with the characters in no time. In terms of story, direction and screenplay, the movie is undoubtedly 10/10. When it comes to performances, the real scene-stealer is Rishi kapoor, he reminded me of Amitabh bachchan in Piku, outstanding piece of performance from his side. The second scene-stealer of this 132 mins. family drama is Fawad Khan, how easily he carries his character in the movie is a treat to watch. Apart from these two Alia Bhatt, although in a short role, marks her presence with some terrific moments. Rest of the cast have also worked wonders. Remaining covers the plot and the movie's authenticity with the reality of life. In my honest opinion, this movie is a must watch; go with your family or friends and find the "connect" in this movie with your life.

This is one the best film that hits your heart a all-rounder movie all emotions are mixed really well in this movie acting is good overall a nice movie
2016 is proudly making a statement- Bollywood has matured like hell.First Airlift,then Neerja, then Aligarh-all excellent movies with stories taken from real life.But this is an original screenplay.And perhaps one of the finest in recent times.This family portrayal is as real as possible- without the extra sugar that you expect from a Bollywood offering.This is not a picture about a rosy family.The family has its problems,flaws and ordinariness.But underneath all these, you have the most important ingredient-love.And this touch of reality is what touches you.The acting is magnificent especially that of Rishi Kapoor.Alia, Fawd,Siddharth,Rajat everyone does justice to their respective rolesRatna Pathak delivers a stellar performnce.A few songs are quite peppy.Overall a magnificent family drama with pint of humour, romance,emotions and finally togetherness.Its meant to be viewed with the family.So please do not watch it alone.Enjoy in the large screen with as many members of your family as possible.Highly recommended...
Watching Bollywood movies , you get disillusioned seeing the crassness, but some producers/Directors know their Job well.this weekend release Kapoor and sons (since 1921) proved that right again .In simple words this movie shouldn't be missed.A family entertainer which churns your heart to the core and brings out that baby emotions hidden somewhere. Now coming back to film script is marvelous with all characters beautifully crafted,u long for each one of them, everybody have their problems and their own worries. Casting was done aptly, beautiful acting by all ,special mention Rishi kapoor he's your comic boy in this movie.songs are beautifully interwoven with beautiful lyrics with astutely crafted music. In one go its a must watch.........Family is most important adhesive, don't stretch it that much, so that it looses its capability and doesn't bind anymore.
Excellent,adorable,very pleasant and beautiful is the movie "Kapoor & Sons".It will make you both laugh(happy) and sad,and eventually tells about the basic beliefs of a family and what is the real meaning of a family.The story brings very much freshness as it is not a conventional family drama movie.It has many aspects and details which keeps the viewer engaged for whole time. The Direction of the movie is very good but it must have been easy as if the story is written so beautifully. Acting is also matching the standards of the story.Rishi Kapoor is as always very good although he just has to sit and deliver his thing.Siddharth Malhotra is fine in his role.Alia Bhatt has also done nice acting.But one of the main element of movie is Fawad Khan he has done excellent acting and at last he makes you love his character. There's lot to say about this movie and it can continue for paragraphs but keeping it short I would say please go and watch this movie and please tell everyone else to watch it.
