Hum Tum Aur Ghost Movie Reviews

Martin D'Souza | Glamsham
Moving from acting to different aspects of filmmaking is the dream of many but very few are able to bring that creative urge to fruition. It takes courage to overcome the fear that failure might be lurking somewhere behind to make that bold leap. Only the confident back their urge with actions. Arshad Warsi belongs to this category. HUM TUM AUR GHOST is his first production. He is also credited to three aspects of this filmRead full review2.5
Nikhat Kazmi | Times of India
Arshad Warsi's debut film as writer and producer has a problem at the onset. It fails to define itself. Is it a comedy, a love story or a supernatural drama? Does it have a point to make, other than entertain? The first question raises its head because the plot and the tenor of the film ramble too much. Rarely funny, mostly sentimental, the film seems to waste away its comic potential for some drama that doesn't quite engage.Read full review2.0

Director Kabeer Kaushik has worked really hard to keep the film tight and to the point in the first half but it seemed the film was running like a headless chicken in the second half. Hum Tum Aur Ghost has an innovative story but fails to keep you interested. Arshad has performed very well.Read full review2.0

Director Kabeer Kaushik was entrusted with a great idea, but his team of writers blew it up into smithereens. The impact generated by a few worthy of note sequences gets evaporated as the film reaches its culmination, primarily because the writing doesn't hold. Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy's music is strictly okay. Ashok Mehta's cinematography is of top quality. On the whole, Hum, Tum Aur Ghost is a terrible waste of a terrific idea. Disappointing!Read full review2.0

Hum Tum Aur Ghost is me, you aur some laughs — and a whole lot of yawns! Writing, producing and acting in HTAG is Arshad Warsi, who we all agree is a natural actor and can cut funny lines pretty sharp. As a fashion photographer he has this devastated, sleepless look on him. He sleeps on the benches of train stations, drunk, in spite of having an apartment in London, gets kicked by his friend and assistant Sandhya MridulRead full review2.0

Apart from being the producer, Arshad is also one of the co-writers of the film. The premise of the film has its heart in the right place. But the script doesn't evolve from one scene to the other. It resembles a car that lurches forward again and again moving a few feet ahead before it comes to a slow and agonizing halt. The music is by Shankar Ehsaan Loy and lyrics by Javed Akhtar . Yet not a single line remains with you as you leave the auditorium. Dia and Arshad are fun to watch together. See the film if you are a diehard fan of either. Or else watch it on DVD.Read full review2.0

Ghost stories seem to be the flavour of the season. Nothing wrong with that, except the fact that they're beginning to horrify audiences for all the wrong reasons. The premise of Hum Tum Aur Ghost seems inspired by the Hollywood film Ghost Town but Arshad Warsi claims he wrote the script two years before that film released. Fine then! This one is about fashion photographer Armaan (Arshad) who hears strange noises at nightRead full review2.0

Arshad Warsi reigns supreme in the film and gives a lively performance. Comedy obviously comes naturally to him but he is equally good in the climax emotional outburst. However the writer in him hasn’t been able to do justice to the immense potential of the performer in him. Dia Mirza looks gorgeous. The talented Boman Irani fails to make his ‘presence felt’. Sandhya Mridul has nothing much to do. Zehra Naqvi is average. Arshad Warsi’s debut as a writer is so ‘lifeless’ in Hum Tum aur Ghost that even his ‘spirited’ performance isn’t able to save the dead slow film from dying a slow death.Read full review2.0
Anupama Chopra | NDTV Movies
At the end of Hum Tum aur Ghost, a character declares: kisi ne sahi kaha hai, love conquers all. Not quite. For one, love cannot conquer this muddled script, which veers between rom-com, drama and high emotion, in the most meandering way possible. Loosely inspired by the 2008 Ricky Gervais movie Ghost Town, Hum Tum aur Ghost is about a flashy photographer Armaan, played by Arshad Warsi, who can see dead people.Read full review1.5

In an early draft of Raju Hirani’s Lage Raho Munnabhai -- that made the hero of this film (Arshad Warsi as Circuit) a national icon – Munnabhai walks into an old-age home, thanks to his love-interest (Vidya Balan). One by one thereafter, Munnabhai makes each old inmate’s final dream come true. Such a film would’ve been infinitely more monotonous than the one we saw, and loved. We’re glad Hirani and his teamRead full review1.5
Minty Tejpal | Mumbai Mirror
An actor is only as good as his director is an old adage, while a movie is only as entertaining as its story. Both these maxims are proved fully true in Hum, Tum aur Ghost, which is an attempted comedy about hum (Arshad Warsi), tum (Diya Mirza) aur ghost (Boman Irani). The film which starts with an at best nebulous idea, is crippled by a drifting, confused screenplay and knocked dead by pedantic dialogue and negligent direction.Read full review1.0
Shubhra Gupta | Indian Express
Armaan sees dead people. His day job, as a fashion photographer, has him surrounded by the paraphernalia of a noisy set---pretty women, clacking heels, clicking cameras. By night, he becomes a hounded man, hearing voices in his head, having conversations with people no one can see. Except him. The thing with films where leading men can see ghosts is that they need to be completely original.Read full reviewNR
