The excitement about watching this film fizzled out after the first half an hour. Yes, they could somewhat hold the interest for a very short span of time. Then, the urge for fidgeting, shifting, scratching for no reason would go on. I think that Bidya Balan could have done an extensive study on her character before she jumped into it. Don't we all know about restrained acting,  instead of screaming expletives? Does a prostitute necessarily have to be loud? Bidya Balan could have done justice to her role by not stressing herself to be a prostitute! Gauhar Khan did far better than expected! The bed scenes were unnecessary and so was that peculiarly ‘dramatic’ scene at the end where the five women close the door of the ‘towering inferno’ with a wry smile. And you're like, “Oh God, what a relief! We can go home now!”
A pathetic film with no story line!
I give it a 1 out of five!
