I have seen many RGV films and this one could be put as one of his best movies other than classic COmpany. If you haven't seen this movie, i will recommend this movie. This movie has no songs and running time of about 100 minutes. The first 20 or 30 minute of the film is kind of slow, so if you can make it through it you will be up for a plesant surprise. Great acting by Urmila and Manoj Bajpai.

Well just say this movie sucks.. i give it a 4 out of 10.
Other than few songs and well choreographed dances this movie is just waste of movie and Gham all the time.
I don't understand how this kind of movies make so much money. When will we understand, its not just cast which makes a movie Good.

I tried to watch this movie twice and fail to finish it because of its slow pace. Finally i finished, it on my third try. Well this is an adapted story from a famous Novel. And been made to film few times. I had really good expectation for this movie, especially because of being the most expensive Indian Movie ever.. well at the time.
Devdas had a great cast, good acting from Ashwariya Rai, Shah Rukh Khan was his usual, Madhuri did her dent in the movie. The sets were very nice, so were the costumes. The Screenplay totally fell on its face. The cinematography was ok. Songs were good, but could have done without few of them. Editing could have been better and pacing of the movie should been improved.
1.So was this a masterpiece?
Absolutely NOT, not even close to one. Company was way better than this one.
2.Should it been nominated to Oscar from India?
NO! Its a shame that India has to send a movie like this from India. Lagaan was way superior movie that this one. Its time for India to also look into Regional Movies, there are tons of good movies made, Malayalam, Tamil, Telengu,Bengali.
6.5 out of 10
