Hot Quotient:
- With Brilliant acting RK have managed to create a fusion of perfect timing and the magic that is needed in making the film special.
- Director, Anurag Basu showcases his inner child in many scenes, especially the early scenes of Jagga’s childhood.
- The humour and the jokes are old school, the slapstick enjoyable.
- A special shout out to the special effects team and the cinematography for making Jagga a visual treat.
Not-So-Hot Quotient:
- There is too much of sync and perfection in a lot of moments in the film.
- Katrina’s introduction as the narrator to the different chapters and storylines fell flat.
- Shruti as a character was weak and flawed as compared to Jagga who was rock solid.
Final Judgement:
The movie deserves a watch but one watch is enough, that’s also because of Ranbir’s Acting, Innocence and Humour.
