Ishqiya Review

pitu / priti/ shammy reviewed on 2010-02-03 at 05:07:11Z

Back from Ishqiya. Decent but suffers from the Curse Of The Second Half. Still, Arshad Warsi = Awesome.

Upal Pradhan reviewed on 2010-02-03 at 05:01:02Z

Ishqiya: V Varadwaj style drama-love n crime on a shady backdrop wit look n feel of Omkara n typical Bwood ending. Climax the only letdown

Harshad Potdar reviewed on 2010-02-03 at 05:00:12Z

Ishqiya - raw, dark humour, awsm performances by all 3, superb dialog, catchy songs..go watch

Rajarshi Chanda reviewed on 2010-02-02 at 06:36:42Z

Ishqiya - a Tarantino film based in rural India with brilliant performances from the lead trio - definitely worth a watch!

Gauravv Jain reviewed on 2010-02-01 at 05:24:40Z

Ishqiya was more colorful and less complicated than Kaminey.

Pradeep Purushottam reviewed on 2010-02-01 at 05:14:12Z

Watched Ishqiya over the weekend and realised its the best movie so far in this year :-)

sonia poddar reviewed on 2010-02-01 at 05:11:35Z

You an adult who can handle some choicest & colouful words in desi language ? sport a sense of humor too ? then you got to watch Ishqiya !!

Sanjeev Agrawal reviewed on 2010-02-01 at 05:00:33Z

2 offbeat movies last week! Ishqiya wins hands down! Vishal is good. Also, it was tighter (read shorter) compared to Rann.

ISHQIYA was real good and Vidya acting in it was really great..

Sharan Sharma reviewed on 2010-02-01 at 04:26:20Z

Ishqiya takes way too long to get going. The movie picks up post interval but once again falls flat at the end.
