Dulquer Salman captures your heart as Ram and refuses to let it go, Mrunal Thakur is lovely as Sita and intrigues you with her eyes.

Ram and Sita's romance is lively and lovely with an innocence and charm which is hard to find. Ram and Sita are just magic together.

The screenplay hooks you in with it's non-linear narrative,The songs are beautiful, the cinematography stunning and the dialogues are charming.

The story will take you on an emotional roller-coaster (cliche I know).

My heart is full after watching this movie, it made me happy and yet feel wretched at the same time.

It truly is a love story for the ages.

This is classic case of 'What I Expected vs What I got'. The massive difference between the two led to a frustrating experience.

I was promised a new universe, Fantasy, 'Astras' and great VFX. What I actually got was a Teenage romance ( written by and for a love struck teenager), cringe dialogues and a clunky screenplay. There is little to no world-building and numerous plotholes.

The screenplay is heavily dominated by this 'Pink tinted romance' so much so that the 'Astras' or the 'Astraverse' gets sidelined.

The fate of the world depends on Shiva but the director doesn't give us anything to root for, we don't get any relevant information to actually care about Shiva or the others. Basically the stakes were so 'meh' that I actually didn't care if the world had actually ended ( We would have been spared part 2) It was a disappointment and I feel so frustrated as I kept an open mind and gave this movie a fair chance only to get trolled massively.

What a roller-coaster of a movie, with emotional highs and lows interspersed with amazing action pieces. What holds this mix of emotion and action is Rocky, his madness and determination drive the story and hats off to Yash who pulls it off with such flair. A blockbuster in every sense of the word, A monster which will only grow bigger.
