A must watch for cinema lovers.

I said this is a must watch for real cinema lovers because of brilliantly they have done it. It is one of the best film of the year technical and performance wise. The screenplay falls short overall. The film starts off very well and continues it's pace till interval. After interval, film tries to continues it's pace but it falls short. Vishal Bhardwaj did an excellent job and proves he's one of the best director in Bollywood right now. All the cast did an excellent job. Overall, Pataakha is worth watching. It won't disappoint you.

Not much story. But such a ton of everything else

There isn't one clear premise. But, this fable, parable will keep you engaged throughout in general. The performances by Sunil Grover, Radhika Madan and Sanya Malhotra are absolutely fantastic. Radhika Madan is such a find. And Sanya matches her step for step in likeability, performance, pitch, tone. Beautiful. Sunil is the male find of the year. What a magnetic artist. The background music was also lovely. The recurring motifs help keep the film afloat despite the lack of a clear premise.

The one love song was gorgeous as usual.

Sibling rivalry; an unresolved issue

Besides the conventional storytelling, what works in the closing section of the movie is the way how the tales of two sisters remained compelling connected even after all the melodrama and the decisions of staying far from each other. Conversion disorder is present when we don't want to face the realities around us so we unconsciously decide to stop sensing and perceiving some realities. It's refreshing to get a touch of conversion disorder in the story, of course rarely used in the cinema. I would recommend watching the movie, it's mostly fun and touch of humor.
