Dreadfully Boring

Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.

Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

This movie really is a nightmare guys...Never in my entire life i thought i would watch something so worst

Delhi-6 is a great attempt aimed at bridging the illusory Hindu-Muslim divide amongst an otherwise co-existent community of Hindus and Muslims using 'kala monkey'. It makes sense that Roshan was created to bring forth the blend, not only as someone born of a mixed marriage between a Hindu father and a Muslim mother, but also of someone who is far from such illusory divides (that India still goes through) as an outsider, an American. There were other sub-plots like the unbelievable superstition Indians steep themselves with and the romance, which converges at the last moment ... this must appeal to the intellectual movie- goers (although loosely in my opinion), if not the masses. Delhi-6 is an icing over films like Kya Dilli Kya Lahore and Anwar, which were either bridging attempted between two individuals of separated nationalities across the border or none at all. We need many more such integrating themes, which makes people think before they act foolishly.

One of the better Hindi movies.....definitely. How rarely do you see a metaphor so beautifully woven in a story that you don't even realize that you are already a part of it. ROM has his way of story-telling and delivering a really good and positive message. Every director should try and be true to their work and script. Cinematography was awesome. Scenes of Kala-bandar roaming the city were very good. Exceptional cast. Great music score.....A.R. Rahman is really a magician. Music sets the mood outright and the lyrics convey a lot. Parallel working of Ram-leela and the story was great. Good character selection....every character is there to say something.....may it be arrogant policewala....untouchable 'jalebi'.....rich 'lalaji'.....or 'gobar'. This movie works beautifully in delivering the message that it wants to convey. A must watch for all movie-lovers...if you don't get it, you don't deserve it.

I remember the time the song "Masakkali" hit our TV screens. I felt a good vibe about this movie, later found out that it was from the same director who did RDB, one of my favourites. Being a regular IMDb user, the ratings below 7 barely encouraged me to watch it though. Obviously, the movie never achieved the popularity status anywhere near to that of RDB.But for some reason, almost 4 years later, I decided to give it a try and I have to apologise Mr. Mehra for underestimating him. It is nigh impossible to emulate RDB but Delhi 6 shouldn't have done his prospects any harm. If there was anything like an Indian Oscar, Delhi 6 would have been a strong contender, considering the paucity of quality movies that get made in the biggest film industry in the world. As someone who is relatively familiar to the ways of Indian society and mentality, it was a stark depiction of the intricacies that form the gullies and chowks. The colours and noise and the varieties of personalities just illuminates the first half or so. The latter half shows the dark side, naivety, greed, ignorance, pettiness which can quite easily ruin a society.Nothing compelled me to write something here other than the fact that moviegoers have decided to rate it 6, which is a pity. No wonder, movies like Dabangg seem to reap financial rewards and recognition and the ones like Delhi-6 are left to stray into oblivion. I loathe bollywood in general, not so bollywood music, but Delhi-6 gives me hope.
