It's about a group of courageous biker girls living their dream as a unit and biking the long roads around India.

There's no real supporting units or anything like the prep involved if this was done for real. It's remarkable that more punctures didn't occur. One bike is washed-away in what can be (arduously) described as action in slow mo but not the John Woo kind just very very slow shots of rushing waters and an age of repetition shots and then the panic of the actors but no clue of how to save a bike which would not start. The cinematography could not even save this dull plot.

This movie has the same theme of the group trying to find themselves and they eventually do; once the journey is completed. Now it's ridiculous that it took 2 hours 14 minutes for this to happen with so much dross context which could have been edited out.

However that's not even the worst bit. The older women unfortunately gets into health issues and they get her to a hospital. There they find out that she needs oxygen. This in what appears to be a built-up city/town and in a Hospital which already has modern equipment.

I'm sorry but this is just weird and stupid. How this is even possible is just ridiculous and the execution is just terrible. Even the actors look awkward as they express their gratitude that she's safe because they know how terrible the script is!

It's a shame as had they cut out this sheer stupidness it would have been a better road movie. I understand it's based on a book of a real trip but if the Director got creative influence then he really should have just stuck to the book!

It's far too long and wounded and repetitive on silly stories and narratives. Cinematography is excellent and there's some strong acting in parts but it's just really average I'm afraid.

The quote that sums it up is 'now I have the confidence to go on the nice wide roads' when she's on a B road and nothing like the six lane highways you get in Asia. Lol.

This movie was supposed to be inspiring, feel good kind of but it has so many moments that it becomes difficult to tolerate and at multiple stages you have to skip it by few minutes. I don't know but I feel depressed, Movies are supposed to be your way out of life troubles, you know good 2 hours of fun but lol this was not fun. It has less scenes of biking on roads, more of character's life troubles despite being promoted as movie that takes you on journey. Youtube vlogers offer better quality of shots, life journey, real problems and what not. You definitely can give it a pass, there is nothing you will miss. I'll suggest youtube, some vlogers have better content and quality.

It is a well intentioned road movie which tries to break the stereotypes. Four females are in a journey together , not only the literal one but also the internal one character wise and arch wise and the motorbikes are their souls . All four has to prove something, win their internal battles and finally they succeed . It's a feel good movie . If script would have been bit tighter it would have been a cult movie . There are a lot of lapses though fatima sharing the screen with ratna Pathak can not match the aura of ratna in few scenes , her internal bleeding seems forced . On the other hand diya is given a stereotype with surfacial character arch .

Great premise and average execution it is . One time watch won't hurt though .

If you have bikers in your family or among your close friends, this movie would shed light on why they're so passionate about life. The aspect of bringing four female protagonists to the table with relatable and simple to understand back stories gives the film a warm and heartfelt connection for everyone. The actors evolve as the film asks the viewers two important questions, what is more important, the journey or the destination? And leaves it upto the audience to answer the same. Worth the watch with good music and the film provides a taste of India with views of the north the world needs to see.

Movie is an absolute delight for all the people who dream for an adventure.

It is showing characters living different shades of life and everyone has their own problems.

The movie gives a very good message, we are always tensed when it is our problem and we get solutions if it is neighbor's problem so try to be your own neighbor and you will see the problem getting solved in no time.

Journey to the adventure is more important and helps us to reflect on your current life we are living. As in the movie they say "Manzil jaruri hai yeah safar?" Both are equally important just enjoy as you live it.
