Prem Ratan Dhan Payo

As has been mentioned this is a take on the Prince and the Pauper story that may not appeal to those who are into art films and like to sit around discussing and dissecting a film's philosophical nuances.

If, on the other hand, you simply like a fun story, gorgeous sets, and yes, the occasional over-the-top scene, this can be a thoroughly enjoyable tale of a man who is willing to put the woman he loves ahead of himself.

I speak neither Hindi nor Punjabi, so I can only go by what I read into the English subtitles, and the first ones I had were out of sync by 20 to 60 seconds which was a bit confusing to say the least, but after obtaining a proper sub file I enjoyed the show.

It is one of most poorly made movies I have watched in a long time. Don't know what Sooraj Barjatya was thinking while making this one. No story, no theme, no soul, no sense, no base....what was this Sir

Salman you just did Bajrangi Baijaan, which is so good. Why did you have to do such a movie. What was the football match about. So unreal, so unwanted. Sonam Kapoor I thought could act when I saw Ranjhana, guess it was just a fluke. I am so disappointed because I have always loved Sooraj Barjatya's movies. Now next time I have to be really careful before watching his movies

Sad and disappointed

Hi everyone, I never intend to offend anyone but cannot help it after viewing this title and wasting 3 hours full of nothing but sonam and salman duo working out together. I never expected this from Sooraj Batacharya, a lame copy of The Prisoner of Zenda. Here no one is drunk but the drinking factor is replaced by an accident and the ending is with an vintage Indian twist. Anupam Kher is Col. Sapt and his associate is Fritz. Sonam Kapoor (Princess Flavia), Nitin Mukesh (Black Michael) and his associate Rupert of Hentzau. Really the movie could have become owe some but something is missing or missed out. 5.6 rating is too high, I rate the title 3 for copying the novel so poorly. REGARDS

The first half of PRDP flows very slow and the story moves along boringly whilst establishing the characters. The biggest problem with the movie is that the conflict doesn't seem to be too big for it to matter later on when the conflict gets solved.Prem Dilwale's too much overacting makes the film irritate you like hell. The football match sequence and the sequence where Prem mends the relationship of Vijay with his step-sisters are completely over the top ones. There are a lot of illogicalness like the placement of a palace on the edge of a waterfall. At the end of the 160 minute duration, PRDP manages to make everyone sleep and the emotions do not work at all which should in turn make the film not work even amongst the family audiences. PRDP looks completely outdated and clearly no money has been spent on the sets and the costumes. The production design is of very low standards. The VFX work is the worst you have seen in Hindi films and the editing could have been much more tighter but as we all know, Sooraj Barjatya believes in boring cinema. Himesh Reshammiya delivers a pathetic soundtrack. None of the songs stay with the viewer. And the worst one is the title track which seems to be nowhere. Each and every actor completely overacts and the one who does the most throughout the movie is Salman himself. Prem Ratan Dhan Payo can't even be thought of to be compared with classics like 'Maine Pyaar Kiya' and 'Hum Aapke Hain Koun'. The film thoroughly bores you with dull moments all over. Sure there are a lot of silly and illogical moments. And Salman Khan puts in a terrible performance as Prem Dilwala. In the first half of the film, he irritates you over time and again. Diwali is the time when families come together and PRDP will be disliked even by families as it is the most boring movie which irritates you with overacting. This festive season, avoid it for sure. It's a 0/10 rating movie to be honest, but have to give 1/10 as 0/10 is not allowed on IMDb. Sooraj Barjatya films come once in 6-7 years and there is no director in the industry who can fill a film with as much overacting as much as the he can. Advice for the youth, don't even watch it on your on TV.

First of all to those who rated this movie very nicely I could not understand what you guys seen in this movie. There was no second thing in this film ( first being Salman Khan ),to watch. The movie has no story play or the plot to stick to the seats. I would recommend the future seekers of the movie to save their precious time. Salman with Sonam seems like Lion Cat couple, and Sonam Kapoor really didn't play well with this one. The story line was complete mixed up as the things has no logic. Even the director would be confused as what way he should give the climax of the film. A village boy started acting as a Royal Mate in matter of hours was really not a greet to watch. Sonam Kapoor wearing sunglasses all the time was much more irritating then anything. The only part movie played good is making you sleep for lovely 2 hours ( after 1 hour of watch ). Thanks
