The Hollywood Reporter

It's as if her audiovisual volume is different — a higher pitch, a posthumous glow — from the rest of the story. In most films, this might have felt jarring. But here, it's the perfect marriage of celebrity and spirit.

Outlook

Talaash is two different films rolled into one... While the latter is a very affecting and compelling track, the former leaves one very dissatisfied.

Rated: 3/4

Talaash starts out as a smart, well-written noir-ish thriller... Pity about the second half.

Rated: 2.5/5

The film hooks you from first shot onwards and refuses to let go. The suspense is maintained throughout. There are enough red herrings to keep a convention of Agatha Christie fans happy.

The cast makes this work as an unusual dysfunctional relationship drama.

This is a very potent and engrossing psychological crime thriller intertwined with a personal drama. The murder plot has all the elements of a neo-noir police story while the drama combines psychological and supernatural elements in equal parts. But the way the supernatural enters the main plot is so smart and intelligent that the viewer is allowed multiple readings from the purely fantastical perspective to a more psychological or scientific explanation such as feeling of guilt, lack of sleep, job pressure or insecurity. The ending is simply superb.

Um drama-suspense-policial que amamos, entroncado, mistérios, com um bom desfecho, a Índia manda bem nessas produções, sou suspeita, porque amo Bollywood, atrelada a um drama familiar, virando fã do Aamir Khan… Lindo suspense, com uma dose fantasmagórica, que ilustra e abrilhanta ainda mais esse policial investigativo cativante e dramático, lindo, tensão, perseguição, mistério, encantador, excelente…

One of the best Indian films I have ever watched. Every scene was absolutely captivating and not a second boring. It was a well-executed movie and great performances by all the actors especially the main actor. In the end, it was a fantastic twist with some tear-jerker scenes.
