Engaging fun

If you are ready to overlook the fact that Khoobsurat circa 2014 is nothing like the original film and yet tries to mangle the original films plot, there is fun to be had here. Like the clashes between Sonam and Ratna or Sonam and her mothers skype calls. Thankfully, these fun bits are judiciously...(more)

KHOOBSURAT is likeable in parts with good performances and stunning visuals.

KHOOBSURAT does manage to capture your heart at places. Director Shashank Ghosh, who had earlier treated the viewers with his quirky films like WAISA BHI HOTA HAI PART II and QUICK GUN MURUGAN, manages to deliver the film that's strictly good in parts. Even though the film is supposed to be an offic...(more)

Fawad Khan, Kirron Kher try but fail to save Khoobsurat

Pakistani actor Fawad Khan effortlessly steps into the shoes of the boring prince fighting internal battles after he falls in love with the doctor (Sonam) visiting his house. Women and girls who have been swooning over him in the TV show Zindagi Gulzar Hai have a shirtless Fawad for treat. Khoob...(more)

Khoobsurat is a pretty good show.

Khoobsurat, buoyed by an incandescent Sonam Kapoor, a rock-steady Fawad Khan and a fabulous supporting cast, is smartly crafted, well acted and endearing. Well, for the most part at least. By not following the known script in its entirety, the peppy Khoobsurat acquires a degree of freshness and unpr...(more)

Khoobsurat is a dull show

Sonam Kapoor looks gorgeous and puts in sincere efforts in playing the clumsy doctor. Fawad Khan is brilliant, he is the best part of this film. He gets into the skin of the character making us wonder who in Bollywood could have pulled off the role of a snobbish prince with such class, he definitely...(more)

Khoobsurat is pretty - and pretty hilarious

Paying the first Khoobsurat a whimsical wave - poet-cook Ashrafi basically strokes his gamcha here - this movie reflects modern times. Mili's had pre-Vikram boyfriends, no-one needs heart attacks for enlightenment - and just when you think the turbanned titles are a royal pain, Manju arrives, spitti...(more)

Sonam Kapoor is suitably perky and giggly, Fawad catches the eye

The plot, and pace, slackens in between. The song-and-dance bits are completely superfluous, even if the lyrics and the tunes are spirited. But the rest compensates. Kirron Kher as the down-to-earth Punjabi mother, who could easily sleepwalk through the role given how much practice she�s had at it, ...(more)

Khoobsurat is a distinctly Disney treat

There are a few bum notes, not least of which is Kirron Kher who, while warm, is too much of a caricature even for a Disney movie. She's the William Wallace of Punjabi Mothers, an iconically cringeworthy character who doesn't bring anything new to the table. Neither, it must be said, does Ghos...(more)
