| The Times of IndiaMeena IyerMatargashti and Heer toh badi sad hai, two of Rahman's songs, are magical even as standalone numbers. |
| Time OutAnil SinananThis is a welcome study of Indian relationships, couples now feel free to explore love and life free from the shackles of a still largely patriarchal society. Cheers! |
