Badlapur is a must-watch film, one of the first films in 2015 that managed to live up to expectations. Good performances in an intense story directed by an accomplished director.

The film pretends to send a touching message about the hardship of qualified immigrants, but it suffers from a formulaic script and underdeveloped characters. Dr. Cabbie will make you laugh with some funny scenes but fails to leave a lasting memory among the audience.

2 States is an enjoyable film, though an average piece of entertainment. It feels too long and the narration is quite irregular. The story would have benefited from a better balance between romance and drama, which would have allowed the leading couple’s performance to stand out more intensely.
