Chetan Bhagat: It’s a really important film for any upper middle class parent to show their kids. Not only me, but my kids also really like the film more so because it’s a sports film too. I would also urge schools to take their kids to see this one.
Rensil D’Silva: Today if you remember a film by the next morning, it’s good. Hawaa Hawaai is that rare exception that will stay with you for months from now. It’s got gravitas, and more heart than most films you’ll see this year.
