The cast pulls off their acts well and leave you with some feel-good moments

It's all about everything happy, happy. So let's stick to being 'slap happy'. Hence, the good things first. The extra Happy Ending, with the cutest scene in the movie being producers, Gauri and SRK's beautiful baby Abram looking angelic.

There is no dearth of gloss in Happy New Year,but everything else in the film

The aforementioned competition constitutes the spine of the film and it is very weak and spindly indeed. It just cannot bear the weight of constant overload. Being a Farah Khan film, Happy New Year also tries to be funny. The actors do all they can to help the director achieve that end by going o...(more)

A perfect Bollywood potboiler for the festive season

The entertaining content plus the added star value of Deepika Padukone, Abhishek Bachchan, Sonu Sood and Farah Khan entertainer with SRK having hit music and positive word of mouth will attract more and more legs to the theatre. As Charlie aka Chandramohan, Shah Rukh Khan does what he does best. ...(more)

It's grand, beautiful, shot in exotic locations across Dubai

Farah Khan's masala flick Happy New Year has everything going well businesswise but it's extremely low on content. It's grand, beautiful, shot in exotic locations across Dubai, has all the SRK moves which fans love, a hit Jodi (Shah Rukh Khan - Deepika Padukone), it's visually appealing but there is...(more)
