Ranbir Kapoor is first rate, Anuskha Sharma is outstanding, vera good direction, Aishwarya Rai looks gorgeous, chartbuster music, very well shot
Verdict:
Plot is complicated. The free-sprited Alizeh (Anushka Sharma) meets a wealthy bachelor with his own private jet Ayan (Ranbir Kapoor) at a nightclub in London. They dance raunchily and hook up briefly in the loft above the nightclub, but Alizeh writes him off swiftly because she claims he’s a lousy kisser. Ayan doesn’t take that criticism to seriously, but they hit it off as best friends (their initial scenes displaying the beginning of a deep bond seem painfully contrived). Unfortunately for Ayan, Alizeh refuses to let him go beyond the proverbial first base with her. What’s frustrating is that she holds on to that opinion until the end of the film. Her belief that friends should never become lovers is exhausting for Ayan. Fawad Khan makes forcible exit from the film though his track grabs attention. Then comes poet Saba (Aishwarya Rai) who becomes object of obsession for Ayan and they exchange some really contrived dialogues on relationships. If that was not enough then comes a sobbing tragic twist. Film has intense screenplay. It has life in 1st half but in middle of 2nd half it becomes over dramatic and stretched. But it has impact. Film has heavy dialogues throughout somewhat like KANK .
