Namrata Joshi Outlook 04/11/2015
2/4
The film plods at the start, with long intros to each of the characters and big doses of slapstick action complete with the cake routine. Go to Full Review

2/5
It is frantic, noisy, gaudy and, largely, joyless. Go to Full Review

How long can you keep the whole tribute thing going and still make it feel fresh? How much send up is too much? Go to Full Review
J Hurtado ScreenAnarchy 11/06/2017
Happy New Year is a brightly colored, obnoxiously loud, brutishly simplistic, yet artfully crafted pile of filmi, overly dramatic conventions and references. Go to Full Review

Mannan A @MannanAg Jul 1 Loved it as a child but a rewatch made me realise what kind of crap this movie was. Despite all that, I still love a few scenes here and there, the music is awesome and provides a sense of happy nostalgia. See more Ishan S Jan 2 Happy New Year is not the best Bollywood of all time. Frankly, it’s very unserious and full of simple slapstick comedy. However, that’s what makes it great. If you sit down with the right group of people, this movie will have you laughing the entire time. It also has great rewatchability. Don’t take the movie very seriously and just have fun. There are tons of one-liners that are still iconic within my friend group. See more Adi 1 04/14/2024 Happy new year is a film which didn't had any reason to go wrong if you look at its cast, budget and crew. But the writing is so bad that the performances feel lazy and the film which is designed to be flashy comes off as bland. The only saving grace is its music.

See more 02/23/2021 it is a very increible movie See more Read all reviews
