Review from imdb
Beautiful fairytale!

The movie showcasing the mystic charm of Rajasthan's landscapes (fab cinematography), it's traditional people and splendid performance by the leading cast Shahrukh Khan and Rani Mukherjee is irresistible. Aditi Govitrikar, the pretty model who makes an initial appearance is gorgeous. Juhi Chawla has a tiny role too, anyway she looks beautiful and leaves many male hearts sighing!

Review from indiaglitz
"Paheli" leaves you with all these thoughts. Plus a smile. The flick's frisky and risky folk-flips are so endearingly naïve it could have fallen into a hilarious heap on the floor. "Paheli" is luscious and lyrical. The simple tale is told with a long-forgotten flourish of folksy frothiness. Here's the story of a lonely and neglected wife in an avaricious business family that is located in a time long gone-by. Rani Mukherjee's Lachchi is timeless in her desolate resonance. Wisely, Sandhya Gokhale's screenplay is constructed through Lachchi's perspective. "No one has ever asked me what I want." Seen in that light...more
