Reza Noorani The Times of India There are only a handful of chuckle-worthy scenes that make an appearance only in the second half. The first half is just a very long and dull build-up to a predictable climax. Rated: 2/5 Jan 8, 2020 Full Review Kennith Rosario The Hindu This supposedly funny plot is so flat that the most amusing part of the film is meta product placements of Kent water purifiers, which Malini endorses in real life. Jan 8, 2020 Full Review Nandini Ramnath Scroll.in Ramesh Sippy's first theatrical release in a quarter of a century should be an event - but it's a bit of a sideshow. Jan 8, 2020 Full Review Devesh Sharma Filmfare Shimla is no longer the visual paradise it used to be and sadly the formula too is past its sell-by date... Rated: 2.5/5 Jan 8, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

r 9 'Shimla Mirchi' begins in a somewhat strong fashion, I found myself interested in the story that it presents. However, by the time the final scenes come around I kinda lost that interest. First, the positives. I like the dynamic between Avi and Naina, it works for the premise. Rajkummar Rao and Rakul Preet Singh come across well together, while Hema Malini does a good job as Rukmini. Decent cast. The plot surrounding the aforementioned three is fun for the first half, though once things become more settled and understood it ends up losing its way - the third act is tiresome, it feels very dragged out. This film has some enjoyable elements to it, with nice locations and solid music, but concludes in a rather dull manner. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
