Break is Good
i for one enjoyed the movie, i don't know why yooou guys are giving it such bad reviews. i watched the movie with a clear mind. i don't think there is any movie in bollywood that hasn't been done before. Most bollywood storyline all fall in the same categories which is why it is important for the actors to try to deliver a great performance so they can stand out. i applaud deepika for her role in this movie and i encourage imran to try to get out of his comfort zone and explore different horizons. i could relate to break ke baad because i was once in that situation and i understood deepikas character wanting to take a break because being in a long term relationship could be suffocating. overall, i like the movie, hope to see more from the pair because they have great screen chemistry and a bright future ahead of them. TO IMRAN and DEEPIKA!!!!
Average...
Danish Aslam's 'Break Ke Baad' is an average attempt, which tries to be super-cool, but falls flat. The characters appear confused after a certain point, the writing gets hyper, so hyper, that it even culminates unconvincingly.
'Break Ke Baad' is about a couple, who take a Break from their decade old relationship. It's the chick who decides to do so. From there on, it's just how the boy tries to bring back things properly.
The idea is fresh, and to give the writer-director his due, he even successfully starts the film. The first 30-35 minutes to hold your attention, and you expect the graph to just go upper. Sadly, the second hour, is a total mess. The writing isn't tight from there on, and even it's characters begin to bore. As far as the climax, it's the weakest link. It leaves no impact whatsoever!
Music by Vishal-Shekhar is cool, and so is Deepika Padukone's performance. Imran Khan, however, doesn't leave an impression. The supporting cast lend able support.
On the whole, An exciting idea gone wrong!

Good for watching once if you're in the mood for a break
Good editing, and transitions, the song were quite lovely and Imran Khan as well. ;)
A bit unrealistic but a goooood watch nonetheless.
Okay good. Can watch it.

Real waste of watching
I just saw the movie in theater, it didn't took much time to realize I'm wasting my time. The movie was really boring, i think director doesn't really know how to present the story, even though the story is old and it's already shown in many films. The dialogues between the lead pair are also old Hindi filmy dialogues, the dialogues pattern is same as "I HATE LOVE STORIES" movie. I think it would be better if we don't talk about screenplay. The cinematography and music are OK but they didn't add any good to the movie. Watching in theater is a waste of time and money. If you really want to watch, it's better to wait for DVD release.
A Refreshment in the age of clichés
I am still wondering how this movie got bad reviews. This is of one of the better Hindi romantic movies I have seen lately.Yes ! It does have its cliché moments but it is still a fresh air.
Directed by first timer Danish Aslam, it is about a young couple. They have been together for it seems forever and they are growing out of the relation. They want to restore the relation so decides to take a break. And that's all there is to movie. But its being handle so well It has this very real young vibe to it. Also, it brings some real issues for the young generation of India. The movie's music adds to it.
Have to admit that I am not big fan of Deepiak Padoukone but her performance blew me away. She was so invested in the movie that it was hard to remember her glamor self. It was first time I felt she was acting. And Imran Khan was amazing. Inspite of what people have been saying he has some true potential to grow in very fine actor.
Overall, I would suggest this movie over any recent Hindi "love story". It is predictable but it does raises some interesting questions.
