Waiting is beautiful and believable, a well-chiselled marvel that is watchable all the way.
One supporting actor who stands out is Rajeev Ravindranathan as Girish, the simple-minded but helpful guy from the Kochi office of the female protagonist's husband. It's an intelligently written role and the actor does full justice to it. Kudos are also due to director Anu Menon for creating an authentic Kochi milieu with the aid of minor characters who nail the local accent without turning into caricatures.(more)

Both Naseeruddin Shah, Kalki Koechlin are good fits for their parts
Naseer comes off best, and that figures because he has the most life experience. He brings a quiet dignity and heart-breaking resilience to a man who has walked alongside his companion � theirs has been a marriage of companionship and abiding affection� for a long time, and who doesn�t want to let her go.(more)

The writing wears thin in the latter half. Shiv's big revelation was unnecessary and the writers seemed unsure how to end it for Tara. And yet, none of it matters. For Kalki and Naseer's effortless performances, this movie deserves to be watched.(more)

the script�s light nature keeps you hooked to the screen.
Waiting is a delightful film that breaks the norms of soppy emotional dramas to present something real. For the stellar performances by Kalki and Naseerduddin Shah.(more)
