    There really is nothing more to say other than I really felt each minute of the nearly three hours hang like lead. Every single cliché in the book is thrown into the mix, with poor Poonam Dhillon as the mother-of- the- boy-from-hell, and Randhir Kapoor as the father-of- the-boy- trying hard to act sensible, having to mouth the most inane lines. I had not an iota of interest in the leads, neither in the first-time Kumar, nor in Haasan who appears a veteran in comparison. My heart goes out to Sonu Sood who is a good actor, and who gets stuck in this kind of tripe.

  • Watch Ramaiya Vastavaiya only if you have the stomach for unbridled lunacy.

    This one’s like a pretty field decked up in celebration, but with no real harvest to show.

  • Ramaiya Vastavaiya is strictly a mediocre entertainer that despite its loud and garish ways manages to hold well. Its childish and regular formulaic affair works if have the appetite for standard entertainer. I am going with 2.5/5. If you lock up your logic, this one will do for you!

    On the whole, RAMAIYA VASTAVAIYA is a simplistic love story narrated competently. Besides, the chemistry between the lead actors, the gripping second hour and of course, the Hit musical score should contribute to its triumph. Recommended!

  • Only those with a lavish appetite for Bollywood frivolities will be able to digest this over-the-top, mushy romance.

    On the whole, Ramaiya Vastavaiya is an entertainer all the way. The enjoyable drama, especially in the second half, and the emotional undercurrent make it a wonderful fare for the entire family and for all age groups. It will fetch handsome returns from ‘A’, ‘B’ and ‘C’ class centres, from multiplexes and single-screen cinemas. It is a film for the classes and masses alike. It can do hit business in several circuits.

    Watch ‘Ramaiya Vastavaiya’ if you have nothing else to do this weekend, want to give your brain a complete rest or want to genuinely laugh at some of the comical dialogues and characters.

    It’s a dam burst of cliches.
