The film is so single-mindedly determined to be light and comfortable, to not raise a sweat, that it forgoes even the mildest surprises. The only things that get heavy here are the viewer’s eyelids.

The "cute" kids are insufferable, but leads Ali Khan and Mukerji radiate the unabashed star quality that's all but gone from American movies -- poverty and desperation haven't looked so glamorous since the glory days of Joan Crawford.
05/02/07
Head-scratching mash-up of zany dance numbers, gooey romance (but no kissing) and random English phrases such as 'awesome,' "bad habit' and 'noisy birthday parties.'

Top CriticWhile Ta Ra Rum Pum doesn't deliver pure joy, it's worth a pit stop , if for no other reason than for its amusing, back-seat view of an India in flux and seduced by Western pop culture.

Top CriticIn its utter sincerity, it has an old-fashioned appeal that may not be for everybody but could definitely play in Peoria.
