3.5/5BMR estimate
Abhinandan Dutta · Anandabazar Patrika · 20 Jan 2023
“The director skillfully manages multiple storylines through a talented cast, though the screenplay leaves certain characters insufficiently explored and the overall narrative feeling somewhat incomplete.”
Read full review ↗Why this score?
The critic gave no star rating, so BMR estimated one from the words of the review. The review praises the skilled handling of multiple storylines, realistic characters, and strong performances from both veteran and younger actors. However, it notes that the screenplay leaves some questions unanswered and certain characters' pasts underexplored, creating a slight sense of incompleteness. How estimates work

3.5/5BMR estimate
Sangbad Pratidin · 22 Jan 2023
“The critic praises the delightful romance and strong performances across generations, but feels that one couple gets slightly excessive screen time.”
Read full review ↗Why this score?
The critic gave no star rating, so BMR estimated one from the words of the review. The critic praises the film's breezy atmosphere, engaging script, and strong performances across different romantic pairs, making audiences temporarily happy. However, they criticize some of the romantic sequences for being a bit excessive and repetitive. This balance of enjoyable elements with clear flaws places the review firmly in the positive with clear flaws category. How estimates work

2.5/5BMR estimate
Rohit Saha · High on Films · 18 Feb 2023
“This romantic drama offers catchy songs and some charming veteran performances, but suffers from a dated format, underdeveloped character dynamics, and an unfocused narrative pace.”
Read full review ↗Why this score?
The critic gave no star rating, so BMR estimated one from the words of the review. The critic praises the catchy songs and the charming performances of the older cast, but criticizes the lack of fresh ideas, poor editing, and rushed character chemistry. This mix of minor technical merits and significant narrative shortcomings lands the review on a mixed, leaning negative verdict. How estimates work
