The film fails to entertain in the conventional sense of the term, and often feels like a documentary.

The film swirls about frantically in the effort to entertain, has a terrible Bob Fosse-like dance sequence and generally overstays its welcome.

You'll be wishing this weirdly uneven tale came with its own government health warning – if only so you come prepared for an assortment of incongruous musical numbers and performances that couldn't be broader if they tried.

While intended as a comedy, there's not a scintilla of wit to be found here, let alone an honest-to-goodness laugh, and at over two hours, it goes way beyond a joke.

A real oddity, shifting gear after the first half-hour from whimsical melodrama to morality-tale-cum-psychodrama.

No Smoking doesn’t kill anything – not even time.

If and when Bollywood does deliver a crossover hit, it's likely this film-maker will be behind it.

An enjoyably barmy movie that plunders from everything from Cabaret to Cocteau’s Orphée.

A cut above the usual Bollywood fare, though ultimately too slight to justify its rather exorbitant running time.
