Raabta - Movie Reviews
I’m going with one out of five.
Dinesh Vijan's Raabta is a painfully elongated saga that plays out across two lifetimes separated by several centuries
Raabta is a brainless, pointless romance with pretenses of rebirth, set in a foreign country. Utterly devoid of chemistry, the lead pair talks inanities until you fall asleep
Watching Raabta possibly can't be anyone's idea of entertainment in this birth or last

If sparks flew more organically, it would have been easier to make a connection with this epic tale of love.

Sushant Singh Rajput may have his way with romantic comedies but channeling a Khal Drogo (from Game of Thrones) while playing an ancient warrior, he gets croaky and a bit too extra for his own good

It will certainly appeal
to those who love hardcore romance and fantasy.

An essentially simple tale of love grows too distracted to stir the heart; its two parallel stories separated by centuries and an aesthetic disparity hardly transforms on screen.

But Vijan doesn’t seem to have the directing chops to make this kind of film, and at 154-minutes, “Raabta” is much too long and overwrought
