I really liked the movie. I think the role that Shah Rukh plays, fits him like a glove. I like his role inDear Zindagi the best among his others. It seems that Shah Rukh wants to be genuinely nice at all times, and his role allows him to be so in reel life also.
Alia plays her role very ably, and I dont think she can do better. The movie is a very nice experience. Gauri as a director is definitely and positively delineating her own space. I can look forward to her movies like I also do to the movies of Karan Johar or Rajkumar Hirani or any other talented director.
