Classy attempt
Surya Vs Surya has a novel story idea and a committed team to implement it. Plus points of the movie are novel story idea, Nikhil�s performance, cinematography and music. A fast-paced narration with attention-catching screenplay would have taken this movie to a different level. Despite of few glitches, Surya Vs Surya will end up as a good attempt! But we need more for such a classy film to work with wider audiences. (more)

Uncanny Romance
Surya vs Surya has some decent moments. Nikhil�s performance, interesting story and entertaining first half are major assets of this film. Nikhil�s popularity will bring in good crowds but a slow and predictable second half spoils the flow of the film and makes it just a one time watch.(more)

Surya vs Surya is based on an interesting premise, has a bunch of interesting characters, and a solid conflict which keeps the lead character on his toes.
The entire segment featuring Nikhil and Mast Ali is so drab, that it makes you wish the proceedings are wrapped up quickly. Like Lord Ganesh comes to Surya's rescue in the film, he does to the audience too. The film is just 130 minutes long and has its share of some finely-crafted moments in the beginning. If only someone felt the need to make the film more gripping and have a better subplot to show Surya coming to terms with his future, probably Surya vs Surya would have been the film we were promised. Like the lead character itself, it feels like the script too is scared of taking on the sun. What a wasted opportunity! (more)

Concept impresses, movie doesn�t
Films are supposed to be medium that showcase visual with sound to be added to accompaniment and layer the visual. May be that�s why film makers usually say show, don�t tell your storytelling on motion picture. But �Surya Vs Surya� goes the other way around in spite of some beautiful imaginary, the film follows the pronouncement of tell, don�t show and by the end you are left frustratingly disappointed at what could have been potentially brilliant and heartwarming film failing so dismally in engaging you or moving you. Sadly the film is more dramatic, obvious, and trivial rather than conceptually/emotionally satisfying journey.(more)

Surya loses. A film with a good premise but which descends into run--of-the-mill stuff before you know.
Spinning a love story around a character suffering from a genetic disorder is a good idea, something that may tempt even a great writer in any period or culture. However, reducing such an idea to a communicational challenge is ridiculous. All the lectures are directed at the poor Surya, who has to struggle with his disorder. Whereas it is the girl who actually deserves a lesson or two. Maybe the girl's mom would have understood the need to chide her daughter, but she is too dead to rise to the occasion (on a lighter vein), leaving our one and only good lover to talk to her graveyard and place goggles as a mark of a forgettable one-sided conversation.(more)
