    Best acting never feel his first movie

    Extraordinary acting and songs soo good story line required Little bit best overall good.

    Hero and heroine looking nice pair apart from that supporting role is super and comedy was great.zaid khan need good story line he have all quality for doing movies he is acting like he dine already fee movies but his 1st movie excellent acting Sonal also looking beautiful they look like made for each other in this movie. Best movie need to support this kind of actors both have the qualities for doing good movies sonal has the experience but zaid did good job he has skills and good looking charming ect give him another chance.

    Dhoom 4 starring Race 3's Sikander.

    I am going with this harsh rating solely for the misleading premise and that terrible final twist which undid any limited positive aspect this movie tried to have and that one good romantic song which was well shot too. I always had an issue with the final act of Jayathirtha's and it took a drastic turn to worse this time. As far as the movie go, the premise has nothing to do with what was promoted and at the core, remains a silly love story.

    To share the spoiler, the movie tries to be a time travel based one until it's not and turns into a time loop one, again until it decides it isn't. What it does try to be is a love story with somewhat passable lead actors, supported with credible cinematography and music. Needless to say, Sujay Shastry once again shines in an forgettable venture. The screenplay barring those time loop shenanigans, is pretty ordinary one with the hero trying to get heroine to forgive his mistake. It is "okay" as long it sticks to that script.

    Anything else, simply shows the lack of good writing as the story moves forward aimlessly, only the crash and burn thanks to that awful reveal in the end, rendering the movie utterly pointless.

    A complete disaster!

    Firstly I would like to mention about the poor screenplay which made this film a successful disaster. The story narration is horrible. The acting skills of the hero is so great that the small character artists can do give better expressions than him. The scenes were not related to each other at all. The songs just come out of non sync. The movie had copied scenes of some of the hit movies 🤣. Overall i wanna give a zero rating for this as it's not possible I'm giving it a 1 rating if any movie lover like me wants to see this movie to my fellow brothers and sisters pls remember a caution do watch at your own risks 😑
