It's also much too long, saying the same thing over and over again.

(Rawal's) performance and the film's willingness to address the biases and narrow-mindedness that many Indians harbour toward their fellow citizens is a good enough reason to watch this film.

As broad as its source but not as funny or effective.

Whether Dharam Sankat Mein is remarking on the hypocrisy of human nature or fostering it, is hard to tell. And that's where the film goes wrong.

Today, when fundamentalism is one the rise, we need more films like Dharam Sankat Mein to remind us that harmony and tolerance are the need of the hour.

It reminded me quite a bit of PK or OMG, but Paresh and Naseerudhin are brilliant actors who bring some life into this spicy movie about the ways that religion can take advantage and take over the lives of people today.

Fabulous movie advocating religious tolerance with relatable instances in the small ways prejudice and assumptions color daily interactions between Hindus and Muslims in India. Definitely worth a watch if you enjoyed Rawal in "OMG"

Dharam Sankat Mein is a very humorous, yet a smart movie, all powered by Paresh Rawal's performance.

A well portrayed storyline about the biases instilled within us from birth about other religions and the blind faith in our own without questioning the reasons behind certain traditions and cultures.

A simple hard-hitting movie which does the job it was meant to do; when you have the best stars working on a plot, they find their own space, and do so with ease, exactly the way the script meant to depict it..

Rated 3 out of 5 stars
