MASTERPIECE! Don't ever miss this unparalleled cinematic experience

Indian Cinema is going places with Baahubali and now Padmaavat. The benchmark has been raised even higher by Sanjay Leela Bhansali.

The high moments might be a few, yet Padmaavat is richly deserving of its acclaim.

It's pretty and partly absorbing but not quite exhilarating

The makers should know that quality trumps quality when it comes to special effects. The clunky CGI in the film is pretty awful and distracting. The inconsequential 3D effects and a glossy crowd-wowing star spectacle make 'Padmaavat' look like pure product which manipulates the audience to love it. ...(more)
