In this movie director and writer Subhash Kapoor tried to take benefit of the franchise's success. In order to combine both the Jolly i.e Arshad Varsi and Akshay Kumar he has compromised with the story, the script and performances of the cast. Sourabh Shukla's character was also not developed well and reduced to a comic character. Heroines have no role. Seema Biswas like actor was also not utilized properly. Lost opportunity with such a good concept and story line. Where are court room debates, investigations, thrill and emotions which are part of earlier films.

I think it's time for Aamir Khan to rethink his approach towards his characters. For me he was the weakest in Sitaare Zameen Par. A good story, great ensemble didn't deliver you the emotions it is meant to. Many scenes of special children give you smile,tears and are heartfelt but Aamir lacks the emotion,the intensity needed for the character. I am feeling strange in writing about his acting skills,but compare his movies before Thugs of Hindustan and after Thugs.

Genelia has not much to offer but still looks good opposite Aamir. The film is not like Taare Zameen Par or 3 Idiots or PK because these films remains with you after watching.

Bad Newz is really bad in execution. A subject which would both be humorous and emotional has failed to deliver the both. The subject like the Akshay staring Good News is bold and challenging to convey the entertainment in it to audience but entire starcast i.e Tripti Dimri, Vicky Kaushal and Ammy Virk also failed to impress. I guess in the settings provided they didn't get much to deliver but Tripti also fails in scene she was required to excel. At many occasions her pregnancy also looked fake. Supporting cast of parents of all characters are entirely useless in adding anything meaningful to the film.
