I saw it in theater with my cousins and at first place i didn't like it at all but after 3 or 4 years i watched it again (probably scrolling fb and found a link) and yes it becomes one of my favorite movies. Awesome acting, Great screenplay, brilliant background score...... A great dark thriller, i love this movie more than any other aamir khan gems. This movie is for mature audience and is not meant for kids.

Talaash starts out as a typical murder mystery and for the majority of the movie, we are lead to believe that there will be a proper conclusion that explains the deaths of various people.It seems like the writers of this film have copied ideas from movies like The Sixth Sense, Shutter Island, and Fight Club to make this film. Even though it is impressive that such movies are being made, a little more originality would be appreciated.We have a cast of talented actors like Aamir Khan, Rani Mukherji and Nawazuddin Siddiqui. The acting was decent though not particularly great. Aamir Khan plays a troubled police officer who is perpetually morose due to the untimely death of his 8 year old son. The songs of this movie were unimpressive when listened in isolation. However, it blends in with the tone of the movie and the haunting background score is well composed.The movie's greatest flaw is its inability to explain the cause of the death. Also, the ending contradicts the overall tone of the movie due to the supernatural elements that are presented to us. Talaash is an above average thriller that manages to engage the viewer but does not give a satisfactory ending which dampens the otherwise good effort.

I have never seen a slower movie than this. Initially the viewer thinks that the movie would be at a good pace and will move in the flow. But as the mystery gets deeper the film get slower. Most of the time you can actually predict what is gonna happen next. But I think it was a 131 minutes of drag. For actors, Amir Khan plays a very convincing Inspector. While he cant convince us with his dedication to the role, but he portrayed it nicely. Rani Mukherjee looked like a very unprepared and loose act. At same time, Kareena's acting is so bad that you might want to turn while she acts. I wont recommend this movie to anyone.

I was seriously surprised to see that a thinking actor like Aamir Khan could not pick a better theme than the ghost of an unfortunate prostitute stalking and romancing him as the subject of this movie! Even though he is one of the most accomplished actors in Hindi cinema ever, his movies somehow tend to be rather boring and hard to watch. On a more positive side, Kareena Kapoor looks ravishing in the movie and carries her role with great finesse. Rani Mukerji is brilliant and solemn in her role, and to give due credit, Aamir plays the touchy, sensitive role of a tormented father with great conviction and aplomb. Too bad the script and theme are wafer-thin, and do not require a 3-hour movie to unfold without much intellectual enlightening or entertainment value.
