Reception

Sify said, "The film directed by Sharvi is a fluffy entertainer with routine song and dance sequences with a wafer-thin plot that is predictable and targeted at the youth".[6]

gollark: ... why?
gollark: Personally, I think traditions are bad, unless they're good.
gollark: Compromise solution: every year we elect a random penguin which owns America but is not allowed to exercise this power in any way.
gollark: The number is from Wikipedia, which says that 600000 of those are people who are already there and who are granted legal status.
gollark: Immigration to America is a million a year, which is, what, 0.3% of the population.
