Moviegoers are saying
Imtiaz Ali delivers his most emotionally brutal masterpiece - a Partition-era love story that has audiences sobbing in theaters and watching through tears. While some find the narrative uneven and Diljit's performance mismatched, the overwhelming consensus is that Naseeruddin Shah's transformative performance, AR Rahman's transcendent score, and the film's empathetic handling of historical trauma create an unforgettable cinematic experience that feels painfully relevant to today's divided world.

    “Nafraton mein mohabbat ko naa bhoolna…” If love dies, hate becomes the only inheritance. Imtiaz couldn’t have made a more timely film for these hateful times. I watched half of it through tears. Not because of how painful it is, though it certainly is, but because of the…

    A very strong message about Commitment. And about a thing you love so dearly you cannot let it go! Movie felt emotional but some angles were redundant such as the homecoming to India one but the message in the end about war was very strong.
