Kapoor & Sons

Kapoor & Sons is an all-embracing family drama that provides you an exhaustive emotional workout. Tears, smiles, laughs - this movie churns them all out of you in good measure. A refreshing difference from the glorified family drama movies of that time, Kapoor & Sons portrays real-life struggles families often face - infidelity, jealousy, acceptance among others. The cast is stellar with Rishi Kapoor, Ratna Pathak Shaw, Fawad Khan and Rajat Kapoor stealing the show. Sidharth Malhotra feels a bit mechanical at times while Alia Bhatt is a tad under-utilised as an actor. Clearly, this is Shakun Batra's finest movie. Kapoor & Sons is one of the best family dramas made since the 2000s. If you love emotional roller-coasters that leave you warm and fuzzy in the end, this one's for you!

Filled with great performances by the entire cast and a family story that can tug at your heartstrings, Kapoor & Sons prove that bollywood is at its best when it works on a personal level

I usually don't cry. I cried.

Bollywood's answer to Hollywood's mystic River in some sense, if not exactly same in its authenticity.

I did not feel so impressed with this film like others as it has a hackaneyed way in dealing with certain conflicts.. Overall decent film with good performances.Siddharth characterisation lacked finesse as compared to Fawad's and also not everyone speaks Hindi in Ooty.

It went on for too long, creating one unnecessary problem after another, and then rushing to conclude everything at the very end. The writers missed every opportunity to tell the story about the kapoor family in an organized and thoughtful way. It was a complete waste of time, to be honest, and the son coming out as gay towards the end of the movie was completely pointless, adding to my point about creating too many unnecessary obstacles.

Lively and wistful all at once. away from all other Bollywood clichés.

A new benchmark for family drama in Bollywood even though the 'drama' tends to go a little overboard sometimes.

Family drama at its best.

Nice family movie with an interesting plot & stellar performance by Rishi Kapoor.
