If only Gupta had gone a little easy on the unnecessary and intrusive melodrama. Even then, it’s a good one time watch for sure

Watch this if you must for Aishwarya Rai Bachchan who’s still in top form. Pity her comeback film doesn’t measure up to her efforts.

While Jazbaa is not inspired by a true story, it attempts to highlight the issue of sexual assault on women. As a commentary on the same, Jazbaa, which is often regressive itself, fails terribly

A mostly watchable thriller, Jazbaa is marred by its director Sanjay Gupta’s penchant for excesses

Sukanya Verma, REDIFF
Jazbaa is a mercifully brief movie, just about two hours long, but that’s about it in terms of the good part

Aishwarya Rai's comeback 'Jazbaa' is underwhelming

फिल्म में दो ही गीतों को रखा गया है जो की सही कदम है। कुल मिलाकर फिल्म संजय गुप्ता की बेहतरीन फिल्मों में से एक है। फिल्म फास्ट-पेसड है और अंत तक आपको बांधे रखती है।

On the whole, Jazbaa will fail to deliver at the box-office and will entail losses to all concerned. Class audiences may find the film interesting but that will just not be enough.

Finally Sanjay Gupta gave his best to Jazbaa and brought out a fine realistic entertainer and gave a grand comeback to the India’s pride Aishwarya Rai.

Had Irrfan not ended the film with the regressive "Mohabbat thi isliye jaane diya...zid hoti toh baahon mein hoti…”, we could’ve considered being kinder. Hoots aside, get some perspective commercial cinema!

Director Sanjay Gupta treats this very difficult film with lot of maturity and delivers a gripping thriller. What is even more commendable about the film is the fast pace treatment and entertaining performances.

On the whole, Jazbaa is a captivating thriller with top notch performances that make it a decent watch this weekend. If the length of the movie and a few dragged scenes can be over looked, Jazbaa is definitely worth a watch.

Director Sanjay Gupta has successfully adapted foreign films in the past, and he has done it again. Jazbaa, a remake of Korean film Seven Days, gives wings to his imagination and he dreams the Maximum City in saturated colours.

Sanjay Gupta’s remake of a Korean hit is designed as a comeback vehicle for Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, but Irrfan holds sway all the way.

And the day arrived when finally our most gorgeous diva of BTown Aishwarya Rai Bachchan graced the big screen with 'Jazbaa'. For days and months together, excitement had been building over this Sanjay Gupta's directorial, the man who gave us good thrills with 'Kaante' and 'Shootout At Wadala' to name a few. The trailer looked promising - with good dose of punch dialogues, brilliant star cast, suspense filled plot.... But at last.... It's just a mere bubbly burst with no solid content...
