What are critics saying?
Los Angeles Times by Kevin Thomas
A potent, energetic heart-tugger and Khan and Kajol, major Bollywood stars, are highly appealing and equal to the demand of their emotion-charged roles.
The Hollywood Reporter by Kirk Honeycutt
This is a movie not built for subtlety, but it does tackle a subject American movies have mostly avoided -- that of racial profiling and the plight of Muslim-Americans.
Orlando Sentinel by Roger Moore
The polished production sometimes touches and amuses despite its naïve “love conquers all” script.
