A breathtaking setting and some adorable children can't rescue the flavourless romance that is Notebook.

The Indian Express

Militants and insurgency and the contentious presence of the armed forces are kept at a minimum, shown in only scant, sanitized glimpses.

Rated: 1.5/5

Cinematographer Manoj Kumar Khatoi's camerawork captures lush, stunning Kashmiri vistas... but it cannot pull Notebook out of the senseless narrative swamp that it wades through.

Rated: 1/5

Film Companion

The story might have even been a cutesy take on loneliness and virtual companionship if the writing had bothered to focus on the psychology of the protagonists.

Notebook has an unremarkable lead pair, an underwhelming dull love story...

It is a pity that Kakkar's heavy-handed approach weighs down what could have been a light, easy watch.

I really adored this movie for the simplicity yet the effectiveness it protrude though it's storytelling! The exotic locations, masterfully crafted cinematography along with a fitted sound score behind ; it was a pleasurable experience. The lead actors played their respective parts really well. The child actors too were so cute and shown glimpses of talent through their expressions and dialogues! The character build up was pretty decent, although it had shortcomings. Some scenes including a Fight scene wasn't necessary in my opinion. I love how the makers cleverly implemented some sensitive issues into this love story without being too disruptive! The highlight of this film should be it's simple yet so likeable love story that had no Vulgarity. In the midst of modern generation of Cinema. We are used to experience so many Kissings, Smooches, Sex Scenes in basically every romantic story out there. But it chose a different path. I'm so glad to see that a Love story can be told without any sort of physical intimacy too. The purity touched my heart. A must watch movie for all of those who wants to experience a Different approach In this Genre.
