On the whole, DELHI 6 has a terribly boring beginning [first hour], an absorbing middle [second half] and a weak end [climax]. At the box-office, the business is bound to be divided. The film may record bountiful collections at multiplexes in its opening weekend. The popular music as also the fact that there's no major opposition will benefit the film in the initial days. But the business at single screens as also the mass belt will be a shocking contrast. However, the cracks will start appearing sooner than expected, even at plexes. Thumbs down!

After Rang De Basanti, which raised a toast to the young rebel, filmmaker Rakeysh Mehra chooses to become a flag bearer for the good-at-heart Indian in Delhi 6.The shoddy climax, replete with a scene from heaven, and the sluggish pace of the film do detract from the delicious flavour of Delhi 6, which, all said and done, is a delectable paapdi-chaat of big, bustling, bulging India. The director creates a whole gallery of mesmeric characters.Watch it for the message of Delhi 6 and the ekdum desi India-feel.

The most cherishable quality of this film, which tries to portray the cultural fabric and its tragic-comic resonances in a society trapped between the machinations of religion and politics, is its transparency. Even when Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra makes deep comments on the culture and politics of religion in contemporary India, he keeps his narrative liberated of punctuation marks.

Nostalgic and earnest as it may be, it's hard to qualify Delhi-6 as an actual film.It starts off as a plotless set of well-drawn vignettes, a series of quirky characters doing their own charming thing, which one almost gets used to because of the fine acting on display, until suddenly there is a full-blown national integration message blared at you in the audience, a message so simplistic it doesn't seem like anybody would make an entire motion picture throwing it at you. And yet, here it is.

In the beginning, you want to love this film In the first half, you're thinking: right on, Rakeysh.Unfortunately the film has a bigger disaster: the climax, which is a huge letdown; no, downright ludicrous. Most tediously, the movie has far too much of symbolism and underlying messages. Besides the central theme of communal conflict ,there are swipes at superstition, the caste system, rabble-rousing politicians, sensationalist TV anchors.Mehra sure has his heart in the right place. But couldn’t he have allowed himself… and us, a little more fun?

Comparison with Mehra’s last attempt is inevitable, thereby generating gigantic expectations. Rakeysh Mehra seamlessly connected with the audiences through his mesmerizing storytelling in Rang De Basanti . Sadly, Delhi-6 is quite colourless in that contrast.

Delhi-6 fails in all departments – acting, direction, dialogues, characterisation and cinematography and even in its use of the songs.Don't bother wasting your money on this one. Mehra has got it all wrong.
