On the whole, KABHI ALVIDA NAA KEHNA is an outstanding film from the writing, performance and execution point of view. It has style, substance, it takes challenges and doesn’t follow formulas — and that is its biggest strength. - IndiaFM

‘Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna,’ a Bollywood Divorce Tale. A French version would have a lot more sex and cigarette smoking. An American one would probably end with a letter opener in someone’s back. But only in Bollywood would the standard-issue marital-infidelity tale include disco-style musical numbers and clock in at almost three and a half hours. - NEIL GENZLINGER, NY Times
