May be my expectations were too high after watching chandni bar and page-3. The effort was no where to be seen through-out this movie.Having a good plot is not enough. The script was far below PAR, a lot of the... Full review
Traffic Signal (2007) is the best movie I have seen in a very long time. Directed by Madhur Bhandarkar, who has taken a social stance on his movies, it is better than any Bollywood of Hollywood effort in the past... Full review

After the hard hitting movies like Chandni Bar, Page 3, Corporate, now comes another realistic movie from the house of Madhur Bhandarkar. If Chandni Bar was about Bar Girls, Page 3 was about high society parties, Corporate was about Corporate... Full review

Critics Reviews


Real Bollywood
Traffic Signal can be described as a compilation as it has only four original tracks and one music composition. The first one, sung by Kunal Ganjawala and Yogita Pathak, makes you feel they are crooning a song while suffering from a slipped disc. ... Full Review

It's amazing to see Bhandarkar create humane relationships within traffic snarls and to consider the possibility of street people bonding beyond the rituals of day-to-day existence. As in the director's earlier works, the performances by known and unknown actors carry the narrative to the pinnacle of credibility. ... Full Review

Business of Cinema
Minute details such as mannerisms and the language used are well brought out through the film. Noori (Konkona Sen Sharma), a prostitute, is busy making men proud of their manhood and is too busy to acknowledge the love of doped out Dominique (Ranvir Shorey). ... Full Review

And really, there's nothing more disappointing than a pointless film. Konkona Sen Sharma is dependably good. Ranvir Shorey is truly impressive, and one hopes to see him in meatier and more challenging roles. ... Full Review

Smash Hits, India
Traffic Signal' lacks all the ingredients of a masala entertainer. A film like 'Salam-E- Ishq' with just 12 characters failed miserably and Madhur has 60 characters at his command. no thumping background music and no great costumes. ... Full Review
