Top CriticRanbir Raj is a charming presence with moves that suggest a cross between Justin Timberlake and Gene Kelly, but the screen really comes to life when it's full of dancers.

With its lavish production design, extravagant sets, poetic musical numbers and photogenic stars, Saawariya is ravishing to look at, but disappointing overall

Entertaining ... Not all that different from America's love affair with MTV, American idol, and prime time TV offerings

Top CriticDisappointingly, neither India's most artistic director nor his new discoveries can prevent this song-packed extravaganza from being a beautifully crafted bore.

Saawariya entices, fitfully springs to life but finally outstays its welcome by a good half-hour.

Top CriticMay not be the artistic milestone many have been hoping for, but as the first product of Bollywood's marriage with Hollywood, there should be pride from all corners for producing a solidly crafted entertainment.
11/10/07
The songs are undistinguished, and while newcomers Sonam Kapoor and Ranbir Kapoor (who aren't related) both have impeccable Bollywood pedigrees, her performance is wildly uneven -- and his strenuously madcap antics are grating rather than endearing.

How can it be that a movie as beautiful to look at as Saawariya is so...boring?

Top CriticOf all the film's rococo pleasures—the lavish dance numbers, the dramatic rainstorms, and even the gold dust that puffs out when Sakina beats her rugs -- Mukherjee's richly textured diva is the most mesmerizing...

Saawariya doesn't collapse but does wobble for much of its nearly 150-minute running time
11/09/07
A breezy and passably entertaining major Indian musical, the first to be released by a major Hollywood studio.
11/09/07
Saawariya is 2 hours 11 minutes of wide-screen close-ups, fanciful sets, colorful costumes, bellybuttons, almost-kisses and 10 pumped-up, achingly sweet songs.
11/09/07
Top CriticFor audiences unaccustomed to the format, the film runs too long -- though it is short by Bollywood standards -- and is repetitive, sentimental and cliched.
