With Delhi 6, Rakesh Mehra brings together Abhishek Bachchan and Sonam Kapoor, son and daughter of…
With Delhi 6, Rakesh Mehra brings together Abhishek Bachchan and Sonam Kapoor, son and daughter of two Bollywood superstars (Amitabh and Anil Kapoor) of the 80s. Mehra’s last film, Rang De Basanti was critically acclaimed, raked in the moolah at the box-office and swept most awards. Undoubtedly the expectations are high, does Delhi 6 live upto it? Delhi 6 is about Roshan (Abhishek Bachchan) a half-hindu half-muslim boy from US of Indian origin. He comes to India with his grandmother (Waheeda Rehman), who wishes to spend the last days of her life in her hometown. Roshan is amazed by the love, warmth and the sheer madness of the area. Soon he meets Bittu (Sonam Kapoor), who dreams of making it big at the Indian Idol and is quite desperate not to marry the guy her father chooses for her. What happens next forms the rest of the Delhi 6 tale! Delhi 6 Review 10 things that didnt work in Delhi 6 1. The pace of the film is too slow. The first hour is a complete drag, it picks up slightly post interval but the last 20 – 30 mins is a let down. 2. The film lacks sense! There is something called Kaala Bandar in the area, which Abhishek explains (to the people) was seen, yet invisible! How can anything be seen, yet be invisible? 3. The film reminds you of Ashutosh Gowariker’s Swades and Madhuri Dixit’s Aaja Nachle at times 4. There is so much happening in the film and in the locality, add to it the many characters and stories that Mehra has squeezed into Delhi 6, it gets highly monotonous to sit through. You dont really know, what to see, where to see, what to understand or what to take out of the film! 5. Sonam Kapoor has limited screen-time. It takes about quarter of an hour, for the most relatable character in the film, to actually mouth her first dialogue. 6. The film ends up being too preachy. 7. Without revealing much, the typical happy-happy ending actually works against the film. Not to mention the over dramatic scenes involving Abhishek during the climax. 8. Abhishek Bachchan’s performance was disappointing to say the least. 9. The cinematography was below average 10. The whole lovemaking scene involving Cyrus Sahukar. Pathetic! Was that meant to be funny Mr Mehra? The 3 saving graces of Delhi 6 1. Sonam Kapoor – Brilliant as Bittu 2. The character actors – did a fantastic job. Especially Vijay Raaz and Pawan Malhotra. Aditi Rao, Sonam’s aunt in the film, deserves a special mention – great screen presence. 3. The music – A.R. Rehman rocks! Overall, Delhi 6 is one of the biggest disappointments of the year. A ludicrous film that’s not worth the price of your ticket.

Delhi6 is more like a documentary on Delhi than a motion picture. The movie drops light on the different people living in a small area in Delhi and the way their life changes due to the Kaala Bandar...Every character has been sketched beautifully...The story and screenplay is excellent.The climax is a little disappointing.Rakesh Omprakash Mehra has proved how good he is once again...The direction and cinematography is outstanding.Abhisheik Bachchan is excellent and Sonam Kapoor is enchanting. Rest of the cast is also competent.A.R.rahman's music is outstanding.

I loved D-6, it was very well directed, beautiful script, all meaningful characters with individual stories, excellent cast selction, top notch acting by AB Jr and Sonam. Loved the movie....Rakesh you are creating brand new cinemas in India, please keep it up. I am tired of SRK, AKKI, Salman fighting to win heart of a girl in almost every movie - this movie stretches the imagination and tells a story from Prem Chopra, the ambitious young photographer, the struggle of jalebi maker, the garbage pick up girl, what a beautiful story. I live in the US now and loved how Delhi was presented. It reminded me of my growing up days in India.

Tis is 1 movie i really enjoyed watching. It was very unique from other hindi movies.I don't see why some people did'nt like it. The songs were great,Cinematography was excellent, the acting was superb. And u cn see that abhishek has improved so much as an actor. Its good that he is experimenting on diffrent kind of roles. I think some people are jus so used to watch typical masala movies. they can't accept something new and different.

I thought Delhi 6 was a fantastic film. It is probably the best effort so far by any filmmaker to tackle the communal problems that India faces. It presents some really complex matters in a simple and entertaining way - using the Kala Bandar metaphor. The acting looked rubbish in the adverts and Abhishek in particular - but in the movie you really fall into this world of characters and it becomes very believable and natural. In fact AB gave one of his best, most subtle performances here. Overall this is one of the best films of the year so far.

AT LAST A MOVIE WITH SOME DEPTH. Let me attack a few complaints that have been given about this movie. 1) Weak love story. The story is not even the main point of the movie. It shows the affection between the two and how the two care for each other and in nuances. Like for example when they are going to Agra, the tire gets flat and just the simpleness of the scene between Abhishek and Sonam says a lot. The pictures that Abhishek took of Sonam during their visit to the Taj Mahal. Any interaction between the two was well captured. There was no waste of time and the screenplay and direction did not state the obvious like most movies do. The music and songs were well placed. 2. It's too boring/slow Well, this is no Singh is Kinng (I love AK, he is my favorite actor) but it is a thinking person's movie. I don't like how a mainstream actor who chooses to act in an intellectual movie gets slammed for doing so. He does not always have to do a movie filled with masala and entertainment. It was extremely gripping throughout because the pauses give a chance for the viewer to think and absorb what is happening. The dynamics in the family are tobe noted; also one has to pay attention to monetary matters that come in the way along with religion playing a role. Societal norms towards women and the caste system also seem to play a role. There is a lot to think about and a lot to think about. I am going to buy this movie. It's a keeper. Keep it up!

Delhi-6, While hearing first time, the movie name & knowing the director any one will expect the movie to be very interesting. A good starcast was also there for the director to make the movie blockburster. Bur rakeysh om prakash mehra failed this time. The concept of the movie is very nice. Actually there are messages in the movie more than one,we can say. But the direction was not at all good. There are so many unnecessary scenes in the movie. Without that scenes the movie might have been a ice cream (Cool & easily swallowed). Especially the sequences which runs around Premchopra are the worst one. And showing the stage drama of Ramayana again & again is unnecessary.The Climax scene with amitabh also not interesting.
