It’s remarkable how one-film-old Motwane manages to create such an exquisite masterpiece without ever trying too hard.

Truly worth a standing ovation.

On the whole, Lootera is a beautifully made, brilliantly shot and wonderfully enacted love story which will be loved by the classes and evolved audience only. It is a painting on celluloid which will win a lot of critical acclaim and awards. It will not find favour with the masses and single-screen cinema audience which may even reject the film, mainly because it is excruciatingly slow.
