    Poor acting performances from all round the corner

    Mahesh bhatt acting is the worst. Kay kay menon is known for his acting skills, even the film made him to act very bad.

    stories r well narrated

    #TheDarkSideOfLifeMumbaiCity shows multiple incidents where depression n suicidal tendencies play a key role. 1-A muslim man is shattered when his only son leaves him n settles abroad, so he adopts a hindu boy. 2-A man loses his job because hes unable to achieve his target. His wife loses her job because shes not willing to compromise. 3-A stock broker loses all his wealth due to market fluctuations n his girlfriend ditches him. 4-A kashmiri man is regarded as a terrorist n his wife is humiliated. 5-A cop is unable to perform in bed due to a traumatic past. The stories r well narrated n the performances r good. Running time should be reduced by 20 minutes. Rating 3/5.

    A Masterpiece

    It is one of a kind film, It's something which not everyone will understand. The film is made for a very specific audience but in a way it relates to everyone and their lives. A multi-plotted story which has so many pipelines, a complex subject to cover but the director has left no loopholes. I like the film because it relates to the condition of so many people.

    The first half is a little slow, but after the interval the film is superb and it is tight in the 2nd half, there's a shocking change. It is a pretty great film and I urge you guys to watch the film. Because it's different cinema, People of India must understand Everything and Everywhere , Romance and Comedy can't be a part of every film. And people like to make different stuff. I love this, from songs to the last frame it's a treat and absolute reality of life.

    Not to watch

    This movie shows how Mahesh bhatt can murder a decent script . Even a 9 year old can direct better then the guy .

    Depressing drama

    Discrete stories of troubled life in Mumbai. The director makes a point in some scenes but the plot is incongruous and pointless. Felt like I was watching a 90s movie. Looks like the makers wanted to repeat the success of life in a metro. This one falls flat in the first 15 mins. Amazon prime has loads of trash brought for cheap.
