it does rank among his better films.....It would've boomeranged had it been entrusted to any inferior actor....The background score (Prasanna Shekar) is effective.....Esha Deol is excellent in a role that's nothing short of a challenge.....Otherwise, the sequences involving the cop (Upendra Limaye) and his colleague (a lady called Malati) are excellent..... ...

The other songs and the overall background score are aptly composed to suit the movie.
Dharan's music is more than commendable.
Director Senthilnathan's efforts need to be appreciated, as also the efforts of the special effects team.

DARLING disappointment can be left behind

Directed by one of my favourite Indian directors, Darling is a movie that could have been far better than what it turns out to be.
That's what makes this movie a little interesting, the way the ghost is treated and used.

Don't bother about the plot sounding similar to Pyaar Tune Kya Kiya because Darling has far too many flaws than just that.
Camera angles and frame selection seem contrived
But the most unpardonable of them all is the film's shoddy editing.

Aag is nearly charred at the box-office, and Darling is on its way out soon too, hopefully.
Nothing outstanding though, which is what the flick really demanded.

As per my knowledge, the film is pretty original," he smiles, "It is a unique storytelling here with the narrative from the lead protagonist's (Fardeen Khan) point of view.
Yes, people do tell me that Fardeen has come up with his career best performance.

The first half has its bouts of genuine humour, especially in the casual way Fardeen frolics and flirts....As the devilishly impish Darling , Esha flies high with her performance that has a kite-like velocity to it..... ... Full Review

As the devilishly impish "Darling", Esha flies high with her performance that has a kite-like velocity to it.
It's hard to feel any sympathy for Fardeen's husbandly betrayals, especially since the actor is unable to come to grips with the more emotional moments.

The script was far from satisfactory too.
The whole team takes a good share of the blame, because ultimately the director calls the shots and directs the camera work.
The entire cast does a reasonably mediocre job.
