Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

One of my main problems with the movie was that it unnecessarily focused around half of the movie towards building up the relationship between Noor and Ayan, just to see it crumble within 2 seconds. Instead I think more time should have been dedicated to her investigation of the organ harvesting; instead the only evidence she was able to acquire in the beginning was a single confession. Additionally, Noor only stumbled upon this story because of luck. She didn't put in any effort to find a story, and when she did, there was minimum effort put in. I don't think it was an accurate representation of the grueling process journalists have to go through to find information. Her monologue at the end was what made me rate this movie even lower. There was no need to talk about all of the problems Mumbai faces, but should have instead focused on her one story about the illegal organ harvesting. Elaborating on this would have produced a greater impact on the audience instead of talking about all of the problems Mumbai faces, which everyone already knows about. Additionally it was too opinionated, and had no factual evidence, which made the monologue quite pointless

A below average movie with no big content, but seems like its based on a real story, but nothing me tionable here.

Got a headache after watching this crap.Sonakshi sinha is trying too hard to fit in the role and bored the hell out of us. first 1.30 hrs were all crap where she is just trying to figure out herself or her shitty life, and in last 30 minutes or so she decide to work on such a critical topic and problems in Mumbai and other states of our country. I mean SERIOUSLY!!!! Useless, worthless, yuck movie.

Journalism can be an evil activity as long as you know when it is the right time to expose somebody. So basically this is true story based movie but with a different name and city. Honestly, the trailer did put some interest to my excitement for this film making me think that this could be the comeback for Sonakshi Sinha. But when I saw this, I felt like y expectations just went down the drain.So the movie focuses on a broadcast journalist named Noor Roy Choudhury who lives a cringe- worthy life that involves being overweight, expecting some bad luck when it involves work such as getting to an interview with Sunny Leone who makes an appearance in the film all soaked by the Mumbai rain, and getting reprimands from her boss which in addition includes having a broken geyser in her house and pressuring her maid to fix it. Basically when Noor tries to expose a piece of news, it becomes a war for Mumbai that results in the death of her Maid's brother who was the victim in the exposure of the news resulted by her photographic boyfriend named Ayaan that she got duped by. Basically what Noor does to fix this matter and to try hard to expose the doctor involved in the maid's brother's departure is basically what this film is about.I'll put the positive differences aside but this movie is quite frankly a drag like the informational factors in this movie are as low as if Anubhav Sinha or as if the director of Roy was making this.The writing elements are terrible like clearly this was supposed to be a movie about a journalistic hero but this movie really tried hard. The humor in this movie was rather sluggish and really didn't fit the part for this movie. The dialogues in the movie are cheesy with such one-liners like I hate my life or becoming daily savitri to tedhi savitri. The acting in this movie was average at best. I am almost thinking that every film Sonakshi is doing involves scripts that could just put her career down the drain. She is not a bad actress but her roles like these will just familiarize yourself on already seeing her previous film roles like Lootera or Dabangg which means that she just couldn't really leave her comfort zone. Kaman Gill (not the one from Phillauri) did make me laugh when I saw his comedy stand ups on Youtube but his acting in the movie was something I didn't like seeing especially when it came to his dialogues. Purab Kohli in my opinion gave a performance that was slightly better than what he did in Rock On 2 but he was okay which did give me the enjoyment. Shibani Dandekar is rarely an actress and more than a money maker and that is what she did for her part as Zara Patel.The music is highly average at best. Gulabi 2.0 is a decent soundtrack but Uff Yeh Noor is too crass and something you shouldn't include in your loop listening playlist. The direction and cinematography in the movie is a saving grace especially the editing which makes the film very well paced and very creative. Good job Keiko Nakahara who also did commendable work for Mary Kom.Overall, this was one movie I really couldn't stand based on its horrible writing and average acting but the good cinematography and music saved it but no one is really going to spend 35 AED just to watch it for these 2 positives. Poor is worth watching but on a T.V broadcast but for more-goers a one-time watch can be counted if you want to learn cinematography and music composition only for Gulabi 2.0.2.5/5- Journalism is a dogs house.
