Leave your thoughts about Anaarkali of Aarah.
| The Times of IndiaRenuka VyavahareAnaarkali of Aarah is an unexpected winner that stuns you with its authenticity. |
| Hindustan TimesRohit VatsIt may not appear to be a very polished product or a free flowing story to some, but it punches with all its might in the climax, and that's where you suddenly realise its worth. |
| Film Companion ReviewsAnupama ChopraThe film's plot was a little contrived but Pankaj Tripathi's unassuming presence, Swara Bhaskar's brilliant performance as Anaarkali and the thundering climax made it one of my favourites. |
| User ReviewNymphadora WThe movie has brilliant actors and brilliant performances from them. This I think is the bare minimum for a movie to be worth watching. But this one has a very interesting storyline too, unique central characters (as far as Hindi movies are concerned), a message imbibed in there quite openly yet subtle and effective. It's original and entertaining as well. |
