Apne - Movie Review

Apun Ka Choice: Director Anil Sharma gets many things right in Apne. Rather than focusing on action, he taps the emotive appeal of the film's story. The result is a film that can leave you with moist eyes.

BBC: A captivating insight into familial conflict and the world of boxing.

CNN-IBN: Apne makes for painful, melodramatic watch.

DNA India: Three is a crowd!

Hindustan Times: It's all about loving your daddy.


IndiaFM: Apne is rich in emotions and has the potential to strike a chord with families. Those who love emotional fares are bound to take a liking for its theme.

Movie Talkies: On a whole, Anil Sharma should be applauded for attempting a unique and original idea, but he should then be rebuked for botching it up with unrealistic moments, over melodramatic scenes, dosed with clichés throughout. Watch this one for Dharam Paaji and the chemistry of the Deols only.

Now Running: In Apne, heart and craft come together to create an amazing graph. It is indeed a very warm film.

Rediff: Watch it for knock-out Dharmendra!

Times Of India: In Apne, Dharmendra introduces the autumn sonata in desi cinema with his committed act of an erstwhile boxer who tries to fight for honour and country, albeit through his sons.
