I Watched it last night i mean what was that.. i couldnt even tolerate after watching it for 40mins thank god for the fast forward button

Except the for quintessential British backdrop and 30 sec of alia bikini scenes there are nothing to talk about!!!

all the characters were so intolerable made so sense...cant believe this is the same guy who made a modest film called "QUEEN"

total waste of resources

I think those people who watched it are unable to comment as they are still in trauma 😆
You had the courage to watch it for 40 mins. I lost hope in 15 mins 😔

I watched it for around 45 minutes...I think the word "wahiyat" describes it perfectly..I mean what the hell was going on?!!
nothing made sense...no character..no story...were they all high on something when making this film? I can't believe the actors saw this movie and thought it would work..like how could this work??!!

and after watching 45 minutes of Shaandar I also came to this conclusion- Vikas Bahl didn't direct Queen..he simply couldn't have...Shaandar is one of the worst movies I have seen from Bollywood in a long time and Queen was one of the best Bollywood movie I saw in a very very long time. How can someone who made a movie like Queen, in which literally every scene, every character was perfect then make a movie like Shaandar in which not even 1 scene or character made sense! Baffles me!!

I struggled through the first half and switched it off at the interval. It is honestly the worst bollywood film I've watched in a long time. Seriously. I kept waiting for something to happen but nothing did. I think it was trying to be a wacky comedy but it just fell flat tbh. The only thing that made me laugh was the absurd 'sundried tomatoes' sequence 😆

I saw it for free and stayed to endure but people who paid good money to watch the movie walked out after 30 mins. 😆

I think vikas was confused whether to present it as a slapstick wacky comedy or a satire on social nd rich family issues.
In the very end of the film I felt director tried to show how elite and materialistic life doesn't warrant a shaandaar life and an individual only finds true happiness with freedom to take live the way he wants to.
Alas vikas bought too many sub plots rather than focusing on the main theme which made it confusing and path less.
