Spoonatects Am i the only one who thinks........Average?

Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

screwfear Stupid movie, don't waste your time. If this movie is truly 7.9*, Bollywood standards and audience expectation has definitely gone low. SRK come too late in movie, by that time Ali Bhatt make sure you that you already gonna hate this movie. Ali Bhatt broke all ceiling of over acting.

GirlNextDoor111 because of good reviews I started watching on Netflix. Got so bored and stopped. Then I thought I should watch till end to whats good about this movie. I just cant stand this stupidity. Horrible movie. Read the story in wiki. Just because her parents left her at her grandparents Alia is scarred for life!! like really? I was in same position. I don't feel same way. Alia has acted horrible. SRK OK for whatever role he had. I didn't get why Alia's parents tolerated her all along. I would have shown the door.

Akshay Kumar (akshay-ak-kumar) When Dear Zindagi was released, it got good reviews here in India and my frds were all gaga about. When I finally saw the film, a good two weeks after release, it reminded me a about Haider.Haider based on Hamlet was a difficult film to watch because of one - the blood and gore and two - the uneven writing. But that got compensated by Shahid & Tabu's award winning performances. I saw the same issues with Dear Zindagi. Gauri Shinde trying to capture the restlessness of a young girl who does a lot of abstract things in her life but the writing was not upto the mark making me wonder what was happening all the time. Alia tries her best like Shahid but the 1st half was I felt too much for the audience to grasp.It the entry of SRK towards the end of 1st half that the movie rises. And the writing is brilliant from here. SRK's character not only brings peace to Alia's life but to me as audience. Its here that Alia shines and proves that she is the next big thing in Bollywood. She and SRK take grip of the movie. Her performance is fanstatic through out the film but in the 1st half at times I could not connect with her because of the writing. The 2nd half you understand her and accept her faults and weakness.SRK is a revelation. I tell people that he is a fine actor who wasted 10 years of his career playing useless roles in Chopra and Johar productions. Finally, he plays his age and the guy with a beard looks fabulous. He so natural that it difficult to believe that SRK is playing this role.The rest of the cast are fine and the film has lovely soulful music. And, Goa is looks mind blowing and amazing. Most movies capture the party scene of Goa. This movie shows the true beauty of the Goa.Hindi movies are known to have poor 2nd halves. Dear Zindagi is rare film. It has I say an average 1st half and great 2nd half. A good Sunday watch.

sofia I mean the movie was really good I understood 100%, Alia could had worked better on her emotional scenes towards the end when she was leaving Dr Jehangir 's house she looked absolutely pathetic as if her laughter was going to come out...lol im sure everybody must had noticed that, and the other bit was when Alia Bhatt falls over the sofa, and Shahrukh Khan didn't here the bang and looks left right when she falls right in front him...you can clearly tell Shahrukh khan was acting which these things spoil it for me, might not for everyone...but i can seriously say I really enjoyed the movie...I mean kajols mona brow and Alia Bhatt's hairy side burns, I was like is this for real do hairy Mary's still exist in bollywood...lol lol i mean Alia Bhatt's side burns was more than her male Co stars, has the trend of waxing threading and laser finished in bollywood... Anyhow I enjoyed the movie very much...but can not really praise anyone's acting individually cause I saw a lot of flaws In the actors ability especially Alia even though she was still good, but the singer Ali Zafar's acting shines out the rest...
