I just watched Bhansali's rendition of Dostoevsky's White Nights and I have to admit what a visual treat it has been. From the costumes, to the dialogues, to the sets and settings
the whole film is superbly done. But one aspect of... Full review

This movie will be framed in gold as one of the most astonishing movies ever made in Indian cinema. Each and every scene gives you an impression of 2.5yrs of real efforts done by the great Sanjay Leela Bhansali. He has... Full review

A lot has been written and said about Saawariya. Majority of the critics and reviews have dismissed this movie! Well, I for one, almost gave it a miss (as it is I am not a huge fan of Mr.Bansali). But I... Full review

Without being driven by my emotions for SRK(whom I really admire), I think Saawariya is a much much better movie than OSO - I hate comparing them but that seems to be the way people want to judge it.Saawariya is definitely... Full review

Saawariya is not your typical dancing around trees romance but a mood piece exploring nostalgia, melodrama, loss, loneliness and love in various forms - first love, obsessive love, physical love, and heartbreak. The movie is directed by one of the last... Full review

I saw Saawariya yesterday and I want to share my review about this movie. Saawariya is a short-story poetry based Bollywood movie. Of course it is very hard to translate a short story which is a poetry to the big screen.... Full review

There are a very few sensitive women who are also, sensible. Yet, those rarely wonderful women make ambiguous decisions in their love life. In fact, they mostly have two love lives. One, which they consummate and live with; and the other,... Full review

Even if Saawariya fails to make an impact, Ranbir is sure to make a place for himself in your hearts.
Saawariya Performance: Ranbir has the right look, right personality and has great talent.
But do watch it once for Ranbir Kapoor, he's brilliant!

Saawariya is a terrible re-working of Fyodor Dostoevsky's White Nights
Visconti's film is beautifully poetic, a beautiful blend of fantasy and reality, with the end heartbreakingly poignant.
The film fails to connect with the viewer on any level.

The sore most point of SAAWARIYA is that there is no reason why people keep falling in love in 'pehli nazar'.
Rani Mukherjee is very good in her street-smart prostitute act though Salman in a 10 minutes screen presence is a bore as he sleepwalks through the instructions as laid down to him by his director.

On the whole, Saawariya lacks soul.
To cut a long story short, Saawariya disappoints big time.
Sadly, the emotions you experience while watching Saawariya is sorrow and after the screening, anguish.
Monty's music is another sore point.

Monty Sharma's soul-stirring music adds an entirely new dimension to the story of waiting and suffering.
Taking Fyodor Dostoevsky's minuscule play "White Nights", Bhansali has built huge but unimposing emotions classified by dollops of awe-inspiring studio-erected architecture that represents feelings rather than physical forms.
