This movie lacks in everything. Except Bobby deol, who in his own standards is mediocre, no one in this movie has come close to act in a single scene. Kangana is complete fake in her acting.The great Anupam Kher has... Full review

I would say the strength of the movie lies in the complexity of its characters, situations, and emotions. It has an Omkara feel to it with Bobby trying to destroy Upen's life as Saif tried to do to Ajay Devgan.... Full review

Shakalaka Boom Boom is a rip off from the movie Amadeus. I personally rate Amadeus as one of my favorites not only because it is about music, which is my favorite subject, but also because it tells us the real... Full review

Now, I like the Bollywood films and I'm very glad they have recently gained success in the UK. However, Suneel Darshan's latest effort is a deeply flawed film from start to finish.The idea of a modern-Bollywood take on Amadeus was... Full review

SHAKALAKA BOOM BOOM fails to be as rhapsodic or nostalgic as its predecessors
Rollickingly snazzy hip-hop by Earl followed by Reshammiyas pulsating nasal twang in titillating musical bang pumps up the youthful zest for the intrinsically hip-shaking and rumbustiously entertaining title track Shakalaka Boom Boom.

Shakalaka boom boom" turns out to be the best track of the album with Himesh trying his hand at some rap along with his natural style.
