Breeze of fresh air
ashish-cooltech2 October 2021
The movie is about passion and it feels like a breeze of fresh air. The acting by all the lead actors is very good and somehow the movie keeps you you gripped. I think might find some loopholes if you are looking for it, but then, this is a movie about passion so I'll give some minor loophole a pass. Overall great execution. I enjoyed it..

Shiddat
puranjanbasak5 October 2021
Warning: Spoilers
Shiddat is a romantic drama movie directed by kunal deshmukh. So, here are the positives and negatives:

Acting-acting is top notch. Mohit raina has done a wonderful job. He is such a naturalist. Sunny kaushal was equally good. He has shown in this film that he has an aura about him to be the lead. But my word is radhika madan so stellar. He is cute, beautiful, and extremely talented. Another female lead who can carry a film on her shoulders. Superbly impressed. The supporting cast including diana penty is good.

Music and bgm-bgm is decent. But the main highlight is the music. Beautiful music is what it is. Be it 'barbadiyaan', 'shiddat' or 'chitta' all r beautifully composed and sung. A romantic movie deserves beautiful music and shiddat has got that.

Writing-the first half writing is problematic. Stalking is a problem. It was and it is. Jaggi literally stalks her to the swimming pool even clicks a photo having her in his background without permission. But the second half is really beautiful. The conversations, the relationship problems are really good.

Chemistry-there r two chemistries specifically. One between jaggi and kartika. Its beautiful. Both of them jel so good. The second one is between jaggi and gautam. A brother type realtionship where the latter really takes care of the former. Very nice to see that.

Philosophy-the philosophy of love is fleshed out nicely. Jaggj,-kartika and jaggi -gautam hv numerous conversations regarding the love philosophy. There r certain references to soni mahiwal as well. It was really good to see.

Climax-i was literally shocked by the climax. I never thought that this would happen. But at the end all matters is the shiddat, the passion which both jaggi and kartika had for each other.

Shiddat is a film u really need to watch. Its a really good film. I rate it 8 out of 10.

Can we get more movies like this
tahnya1106 October 2021
I didn't know anything about the movie. I was hooked as soon as it started. The chemistry between the main characters was amazing. Sunny is a superb actor, he may even beat his big brother.

The movie's ending was not a typical Bollywood ending, and it may be why it wasn't appreciated by many. But I think it was the right ending. Very dramatic and sad but realistic.

I hope we get more movies like this in the future.

A great lov story to look out for, been a long tym since we got a gud love story n shiddat gives a good feeling. Though it needed a proper editing as some parts seemed unrealistic and over stretched, sad ending 😐 I rate it a 7/10 stars.

Who is Sunny Khaushal
Feel-the-truth5 October 2021
Well the movie is a crazy love story for sure, is it unrealistic, I would say that's in the eye of the beholder.

I enjoyed the movie, the songs are fantastic and Sunny Khaushal, who the hell is Sunny Khaushal??? I thought he was excellent, he carried the entire movie on his shoulders.

The support cast was good, as for Radikha Madan, she just doesn't do it for me.

Watch Shiddat, probably one the better movies that has been released this year.

Good acting but illogical movie
kareshsam3 October 2021
Jaggi had a great career in front of him and a whole life. And he wasn't even in a relationship with Kartika, they met just a few days back and he went on to destroy his life, family, career everything without any commitment from Kartika's side.

No doubt, everybody's acting was superb but the story is very outdated.

The character played by Mohit Raina was actually very close to being practical and he even gave some very good advice to Jaggi in one scene, ie, "Tu salad pe hi atak gaya hai, main course, desert sab baaki hai."

Interesting observation
Internationalreviewer8 October 2021
Some people call it a waste film in the era when web-series are favorite. There are special group of viewers who like to watch romantic movies, they grew up thinking DDLJ/ Rab ne bana di jodi was an epic and they think Kabir Singh is the real romance, some of them secretly worship The notebook. If those movies are not waste of time, then this movie has the legitimate right to call itself wonderful.

Music is good and the ending has a twist.

There is nothing new in romantic movies anymore but still people watch them because it is a total fantasy.

So do not hesitate to watch this movie, because plots of romantic movies does not make any sense in real life but they are still guilty pleasure in watchlist.

Poetic Justice
bagchihrishikesh2 October 2021
Warning: Spoilers
Yes I agree ending is not happy but titanic also had such ending and let's not forget bahubali.

It's the charm of filmmakers..and they know emotional stuffs connects better.

Story is nice, acting is super, emotions are unmeasurable.

The writer did do just with the dream scene that Jaggi reached house of Kratika but ending touched the sensible mark.

So it's a good movie after a long time.

Good job.

10 on 10.

Stalker, desperado, lover in action
madanmarwah10 October 2021
This one is for the hopeless romantics who like to hear and believe in stuff like " I will climb the highest mountain to reach you " or " I will swim across miles of the deepest sea to get to you " or " I will fight everyone, everywhere to be with you for ever and ever". There is also a message coming across in the movie that love can exist in a long distance relationship and it may be missing in a loveless marriage.

So we have a crazy, obsessed lover boy Sunny Kaushal who is besotted with pretty lady Radhika Madan and he stalks her all the time. He is all passion (Shiddat), full of energy and refusing to take "No" from the girl. Despite knowing that Radhika is getting married in London, he entreats her to cancel this marriage and wait for him. Like many of the illegal immigrants who take to sea/ land/ air routes to get into the land of opportunities, Sunny also does likewise, but gets caught by the law. But not to be deterred, he continues to make desperate efforts.

Director Kunal Deshmukh has a difficult script in his hands but he converts it into a watchable film for Indian audiences. Could he have reduced the film by 30 minutes and made it better? Yes, undoubtedly. It sags at places.

Sunny Kaushal has a complex role to perform which gives him a chance to showcase different shades of the character and he does it well. Radhika also acts well as the hapless girl not knowing how to handle the tricky situation.

This flim should in theaters, This flim may made you cry.
vermamayank-842541 October 2021
Perfect film. Right from songs to acting and dailogs. Everything is superb. Visky kausahl and Manvi may make you their fan. Some emotions seens may give you ghoose bumps. All I can challenge you cannot leave the left to watch it later. So please if have less time don't know watch it otherwise you may miss your work but this movie can be left half watched. Kudos to Kunal Khemo sir.

Stalking Stupidity Sickness in the Name of Love
sweetrashi-658242 October 2021
Warning: Spoilers
Shiddat is everything that is wrong with bollywood romantic movies. Scenes are illogical and stupid. Jaggi's character is a problematic one. What he has done in the movie is simply called stalking and people like them should be called pervert. Taking picture of a girl without consent and posting it, flashing, stalking, talking vulgar, behaving vulgar are everything which is wrong with this film.

Movie is illogical to its peak. Jaggi crossing borders in an illegal way, swimming in English canal and no consequences, sits below the planes tyres to reach London, an IFS officer taking an illegal immigrant to his home, National level athletes are partying and drinking that too a day before a big competition. It really makes me cringe to infinity.

Expected better from Radhika Madan. Mohit Raina is really fine actor he needs better opportunities. Would love to watch Mohit Raina and Diana Penty together though. This one Star rating is only for Mohit Raina's acting and dialogue delivery.

I didn't want the movie to end
ankitankur-603052 October 2021
There's nothing that's not been seen in Bollywood movies already but that's the beauty of this movie. It takes already familiar tracks and weaves them together to create a beautiful story. More power to Radhika Madan for choosing this script. And Mohit Raina, kudos bro; Your character effortlessly shows the insufficiencies of the so called Blue bloods.

Overall, repeat watch. Watched it today morning, gonna watch it again tomorrow.

All I can say is I felt the emotions; laughed and cried with them; didn't want the movie to end; and now that it's ended I feel like I lost something personal; Yes I liked it that much. And screw all the critics; flush their reviews down the toilet. Infact we should host a nationwide campaign to wipe our asses with the printed reviews of the so called cinema critics.

Silly but hit hard on your heart
i_lalindra29 October 2021
Warning: Spoilers
A story about crazy one side love do whatever it takes to reach and win the heart of his girl.

At many points you will feel the boy is very silly but shiddat(Passion) keeps him ticking till the last effort.

It is full of romance till the last 5minutes and at last fall apart. Great acting by all four main characters. More credits to them.

Music and songs are ideal for the theme. Overall ut is a good effort.

Epic nuisance
madhurima-0922718 November 2021
There is a limit of nuisance but this movie is even worse. Baseless content, baseless storyline. Dude there is 24 ft height from the ground of boeing 747 in airplane. How did he even climb it ? NONSENSE.

A story that gives major lover goals.
vinayshri20 October 2021
On a brief note i can say this movie is way more better than bollywood/hollywood college life drama. Sunny's acting was amazing. The storyline and cast was fabulous. Watch it with your ONLY ONE. Thank you.
