Talaash is two different films rolled into one... While the latter is a very affecting and compelling track, the former leaves one very dissatisfied.

Talaash starts out as a smart, well-written noir-ish thriller... Pity about the second half.

Performances are uniformly impressive, with Khan proving again that he is the finest actor of his generation.

It's as if her audiovisual volume is different — a higher pitch, a posthumous glow — from the rest of the story. In most films, this might have felt jarring. But here, it's the perfect marriage of celebrity and spirit.

The film hooks you from first shot onwards and refuses to let go. The suspense is maintained throughout. There are enough red herrings to keep a convention of Agatha Christie fans happy.

Talaash is more than just a suspense thriller, it's a deeply emotional story hidden inside a mystery. Aamir Khan delivers a calm and natural performance, while the film slowly pulls you into its dark and haunting atmosphere. The pacing feels slow at times, but the emotional depth and final reveal make it memorable and surprisingly impactful.

A gripping story but an unfulfilling end. It could have been a masterpiece.
