Critic consensus

What 5 critics are saying

Critical reception for 'Hum Hai Raahi Car Ke' is overwhelmingly negative, with most reviewers finding the film to be a weak and unnecessary production. The script and story are widely condemned as incoherent and poorly constructed, with one critic describing it as a 'painful experience' filled with 'gibberish.' The one consistent note of measured praise is reserved for debutant Dev Goel, with at least one reviewer calling his debut 'confident,' though critics broadly suggest he deserved better material. Veteran supporting actors are briefly acknowledged as a minor saving grace by one reviewer.

    Film review ·

    There is no reason for 'Hum Hai Raahi Car Ke' to exist except that producer-director Jyotin Goel's son, Dev Goel, is now of kissable age and has acquired muscles — feats that daddy dear thinks deserve a public audience.

    There's no lack of tepid efforts in Bollywood and this film adds to the list. In this peculiar instance, the car bears the price for the mishap others underwent.

    Film review ·

    Hum Hai Raahi Car Ke at no cue gives you a reason to watch the film. Garnished with bizarre rococo nonsense, the film is a painful experience. Though veteran actors provide some pleasing benefits, overall the story blabbers on gibberish-ly not giving its audiences any respite from the baloney!
  4. NDTV

    Film review ·

    Hum Hai Raahi Car Ke is a fun-filled road movie zestfully driven by the director, but alas the road is littered with too many sleeping dogs. Dev Goel makes a confident debut. Hopefully, he will be provided with better material next time. Maybe a remake of Dus Lakh upgraded to '100 Crore'?
