@bold..well..that makes it two.

It wasn't on Alisha's count but was still lost..if he didn't die he would've killed..loss in any case.

See, that’s the beauty of fiction. You can derive as many lessons as you choose to and not just restrict yourselves to what the director chose to tell.

Making mistakes is part of life, some big and some small and some really unpardonable. Sometimes bad things happen to good people also. You just cannot let your past take control of your future. Everyday is the first day of the rest of your life and you have to try to start afresh. I guess that’s the message the dad was trying to convey to his beloved daughter who was already suffering because of her mistakes. You want the dad to preach to her about thinking before leaping etc? She is a 30 year old grown up and I am sure she didn’t need to hear it from anyone else after going through such an ordeal herself.

🤣🤣

The movie could have really been a brilliant one, it tried to do too many things and fell flat.

Even the emotional and humour quotient was very dialled down unlike the last 2 Shakun films.

Plus the whole last 30 mins was a convenient plot with so many plot holes that it is unintentionally funny.

The first half could do with a crisp editing.

The movie actually commits a blunder, it bores you, you can have flawed characters, over the top characters and plots but a movie should not bore you, once it bores you, you have lost your audience.

The only saving grace music and performances.

Dhairya is very good, you kind of feel for him inspire of him being a dick in the first half and I think that is because of the actor than the character.

Ananya is I think playing herself, a ditzy, clueless rich person. But her crying scene with Deepika was good.

Sidhanth and Deepika were very good.

Sidhanth was damn good but the characterization could have been more better, but he was good with what he had.

Though I don't know whether it was the character or Deepika herself , she was good in emotional scenes but somewhere I felt that spark and presence missing that was in Piku and Cocktail, in some instances her eyes were blank.

Her scenes with Naseeruddin were brilliant.

But best was Naseer, with a few scenes he stole the whole show, the body language was just brilliant.

Movie was very slow and gloomy.

the only good thing about the movie was how it showed flawed characters without glorifying them. And that’s a real life. Acting, message was good but too gloomy, don’t know if I would have watched if it was not on prime or had Deepika in it.

Though Ananaya really surprised me, she actually was quite decent for this being her 3rd or 4th movie.

I thought anupama chopra would give a good review as she is friends with shakun, but she didn't seem to like the film from her review, I thought it would be the kind of film she would enjoy but she is very critical about it

Tia owed nothing to Alisha. She loved her own mom and saw her go through trauma because of what Alisha's mom did. Why should she feel sympathetic to her father's love child? She had every right to care for her own mom's feelings.

Even baradwaj rangan didn't like the film

Raja sen tweeted he was watching it but then didn't post a review, this is all he tweeted after watching it, I dont think he liked the film either

Saw the movie and it’s quite bad. I’m confused as what it was trying to be ? Is it supposed to be a story about cheating? Finding real connections? Or the strange suspense angle it takes on?

I find the second half’s suspense part to be very awkward lol almost as if two different movies were pasted together

Everyone was annoying in the movie and I wasn’t impressed with anyones acting.

Like I said, Tia didn't owe Alisha anything. Her mom went through severe trauma because Alisha's mom stole her husband. So why should Tia feel obligated to Alisha. Would you feel anything for your dad's illegitimate child? No, right? If I was Tia, I would've refused to even see Alisha's face ever.

Alisha was much, much, much more flawed.

Well, you've asked a very personal question, but yes actually I would give the share if it were me, ESPECIALLY if my father willed it that way. Would I see her face? Probably not. Nor would I inflict this on my mother. But I would understand that whatever the actions of my father, it isn't my only living sibling's fault and that what goes around comes around. Robbing her of her share would gain me nothing. It's immoral and wrong in it's own right. And this wasn't just a "random" illegitimate child, it was Tia's cousin whom she had a relationship and a childhood bond with, whom she watched struggling financially through the years for no fault of her own. And she still chose to betray her in her own way.

Pretty darned selfish to spend excessively, get married in Tuscany, while taking someone else's right from them. Classic spoiled rich people behaviour, I would say, cheating or no cheating.

And it really isn't a competition about who is "more" flawed- all of them were
