This is probably the worst film helmed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali. It drags on an on, starts out slow and ends slower. Some life is pumped into the film when Vijay Raaz who plays the role of Raziyabai, is on the screen. The only poignant moments in the movie are that of Kamli's death and when a young Madhu decides to chose death over prostitution. Indira Tiwari as Kamli turns in a good performance.
As a director Sanjal Leela Bhansali fails, completely.
Alia Bhatt tries her best, but this role needed panache as well as vulnerability which she was not able to express.
