Shubhra Gupta The Indian Express Inkaar could have been truly radical. But it becomes a film that prefers to cop out, rather than deliver on the promise it held out so bravely in its initial passages. Rated: 2/5 Mar 21, 2019 Full Review Anna M.M. Vetticad annavetticadgoes2themovies Inkaar is done in by its limited writing, inability to handle a sensitive issue with finesse, unwillingness to take a strong position, its fuzzy story and inconsistent characterisation leading to an infuriatingly non-serious climax. Rated: 2/5 Jan 14, 2023 Full Review Saibal Chatterjee NDTV So, should you say no to Inkaar? The answer is neither yes nor no. Maybe would probably be more in order. Rated: 3/5 Apr 19, 2016 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member I LOVED it,, I don't know why there are so many bad reviews,, It's great, I loved the story and the 2 leads were perfect , especially Arjun Rampal. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Real issues, OK actors and a poor management of rhythm. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member I thought it would be like Abbas Mastan's Aitraaz (which was a copy of Michael Douglas & Demi Moore starer Disclosure ) but this one is quite different from that. Though it starts off really well but ends on a disappointing note thanks to that confusing climax. Also cinematography & editing isn't that great because there are too many close shots which makes it irritating. Only redeeming factors are Shantanu Moitra's music & Arjun Rampal's marvellous performance. 1 star extra for his acting. Not what you expect from a Sudhir Mishra film. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member Arjun Rampal... oh wow!! I didn't realize Bollywood has now open to include kissing, or even sex scenes in a movie (although still tagging with waring alerts in smoking scenes). The consistent (over-)long narrative, plus tons of music numbers, as ever seen in traditional Bollywood productions. The middle starts repeating & turns sluggish. Still one average drama in the whole. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member Seems that the age old debatable question "Can a boy and a girl be just friends?" will now get precedenced by "Can a boss and his subordinate (read muse) maintain both love and work relationships alongside?" This movie deals with the complexities of such a relationship with the focus on harassment in the workplace. Again, this so called harassment has been given two perspectives - one of the male boss who considers his eventual stance of non-cooperation, snide and improper remarks as getting back and flirting respectively, and the other of the female subordinate (at high post) who considers the aforesaid comments as insulting and non-cooperation as an attempt to curb her career. She also thinks that somewhere she is being pressurized to compromise with her dignity as well. An interesting observation that has been portrayed very well in this movie is - the same look, nudge and dialogue between the same duo holds poles apart meanings in two different situations, that is when they are in love by admittance and when they are not! Now the question is - in our kind of society where very few women happen to reach powerful positions in cut throat corporate sectors and wherein ambitious plus woman does not equal to focus, hard work, struggle and sacrifice, but to most it equals to running away from basic womanly duties, indulge in merry making and overall have a selfish existence, what percentage of population will actually understand the pain and frustration of a senior woman executive being harassed by a boss whom she once loved? Very few actually. Hats off to the makers of this movie to still work upon such a project and that too without any item number or even normal song and dance sequence! Sudhir Mishra has made a fine movie with a new age topic, sans any unnecessary sleaze and showing different perspectives of so called 'workplace harassment' starting from its cause and origin to its climax. The whole movie shuffles between past and present of seven year period and at times the chain of events gets little confusing. The end of the movie is also quite bizarre. The director has played with light maybe to denote past and present in the scenes, but in such type of movies where past forms most of the story narrative, continuity in the lighting is advisable. Otherwise, most of the times you feel that the lighting is inadequate. Casting of the supporting characters is superb and so is their costumes, body language, acting etc. Deepti Naval has done full justice to her character of a social worker. Kanwaljeet has a very short and passable role. Coming to the main protagonists, Arjun Rampal is experimenting with different roles and is succeeding as well! He is now a polished actor. Chitrangada Singh is lucky to get such screen space at the onset of her career and has managed good enough. But a lot more expressions could have used by her character. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member I liked it, but still could been better with other cast (for Rampal). Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Read all reviews
