No smoking is a sirious kind of film. In this movie`s story is not good. This movie`s promosion is not done well. Jone done very bad on his roll. Aysa takia done well on her own roll . Bipasa basu is good on her small roll. But all of this roll aysa is good. But this movie`s story is very weak.

a summary: the story is a fantasy. so everything is possible. above ground level there's real world we live in. where character smokes. down below ground level is another world where there's person keepin accounts of good n evil. our lead character john abraham goes there to quit smokin. he joins tht program of 5 stages. when he smokes for 2nd time his punishment was tht his 2 fingers will be removed from his hands. but in movie it so happens tht when he smoke for 2nd time in spite of cutttin his finger his wife ayesha takia is killed. after which movie runs its course till 5th punishment. and john abraham wakes up in his bed from a dream and finds ayesha takia alive, he's shocked. he goes to washroom and sterts tap water and takes a look at his hand where his two fingers are missing. and then film concludes. so after getting his fingers removed he comes back to his home goes to sleep with ayesha and rest of the movie happens in his dream. review: no wonder ppl have seen this movie ten times .. the movie deserves tht. there are no lessons to be learnt frm this movie. it is a piece of art in its pure form. it's a masterpiece. and anurag kashyap is a genius.

No Smoking(movie review) I was eagerly looking forward to "No Smoking" ever since i read the preview of the film and later, the look of the film made me even more curious. And, to top it all, it's a Anurag Kashyap film after much acclaimed Black Friday. But after i read Taran Adarsh's review(overall negative response from the media/other critics) on No Smoking, i wasn't sure what to expect! But again, i thought it may not be so wise to trust Taran Adarsh for a Hatke film like No Smoking. So, i decided to give it a try. So, what is this film about? As we all know, it's about a man who's addicted(though not an appropriate term in medical sense) to smoking. And, then the time comes when he must choose one, between his will(smoking) &his love(wife). Now, after deciding to quit smoking, he must go through a rehabilitation programme. And what we see in the film, from the point when treatment starts, is surreal in context to his(K) physical life. It is in fact, the experience of his soul, throughout the rehabilitation programme/treatment period. Anurag Kashyap deserve applauds for making such a hatke,brave film. The visuals were upto the mark. I loved the music too(don't care what anyone says). John Abraham looked just perfect in the role(K) and acted very well too. Paresh Rawal(Baba Bangali) was good and so was Ayesha Takia(Anjali). Ranbir Shorey(Abbas Tyrewala) did a nice job as expected. To conclude- I'll say, it's a simple film, and yet very complicated if you're unable to look/think beyond what you see(especially for persons like Taran Adarsh, who may find it as a maze with a dead end)! PS- For those, who're wondering if it's an anti-smoking film or not! ---> NO, it's not!

This is an art movie, which reminded me of movies from the American movie maker David Lynch. His last movies tend to be psychological thrillers, and at the end, you don’t understand what has happened, and have to watch the movie again. I actually like such kind of concepts. No Smoking is also a psychological thriller/drama about smoking and cigarettes. Therefore, I would warn those who don’t like such kind of movies or dramas in general.

This movie leaves you in a complete schizophrenic state and has nothing to enlighten regarding the disasters of smoking.The director 'Anurag Kashyap' was obnoxious and had no candid view of the script which was beyond the thinking of common audience.The movie had no flow and the audience had lost their way thinking about the bizarre story which was leading to nothing.Ranvir Shorey and Paresh Rawal were underutilized and the reel drama had no real essence in it.The director tried to break the conventional norm of Indian cinema by introducing the concept of ablution of soul and its disjunction with the homo sapien but landed up in a perplexing thought.It also holds a wrong notion about the rehabilitation centers which were projected in a violent and demoniac way.This would be the first movie that most of the intelligent and experienced Indian critics could not understand.On the whole the movie lead to a complete disaster at the box office and an utter failure of the year 2007.
