0 of 1 people found this review helpful The film is loosely edited and even the camerawork appears jaded. The humour isn't slapstick but at most instances lacks punches and falls flat. However director Chandrakant Kulkarni gets the middle-class ambience correct, to an extent and thankfully does't make Anil Kumble act beyond permissible limits.

0 of 1 people found this review helpful The 'film' actually could have passed for a good one hour tele film like a Star Bestseller or something. The actors were good. The story could have been told better within an hour. And with no glam quotient the film anyway looked more like television material than anything else. Actually Ekta Kapoor soaps do have more glam quotient than this one.

0 of 1 people found this review helpful Meera can. If you want to play cricket, you have to think straight. To writer Soumik Sen's credit, he gives Mandira a role to sink her teeth into. Experienced actor and cricket connoisseur that she is, Mandira gets into the groove with lip-smacking relish, abandoning lip gloss and hip-gyrations for rollicking sprints down Mumbai's lanes with the boys of the colony.

Meerabai Not Out isn't essentially a sports film but is more about one?s obsession towards any particular element in life and in this case it's cricket. Unfortunately Meera's passion for cricket doesn't quite come across in the film. Her craze towards cricket isn't convincingly established and is simply restricted to a few jargons about the game in her dialogues.

0 of 1 people found this review helpful Meerabai starts off fairly well and the first half has some funny moments, especially the scene where Meera is compared to Mandira Bedi. Anil Kumble getting hiccups every time Meera remembers him is cute too. Barring the opening track, the music is not happening...
