An odd amalgam of soap opera and street-level realism, with, alas, the former trumping the latter.

[A] satisfying, well-acted drama.

Ms. Rao does have an ace up her sleeve, though: Prateik, who in his first lead role gives a nuanced, career-making performance.
Rachel Saltz, New York Times

With its key settings in a crowded, largely decrepit, congested yet beguiling, picturesque older portion of this city of 14 million inhabitants, the film is like a rich tapestry in which are interwoven the intersecting lives of three people.
Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times
