In America, having lead a very western lifestyle Roshan is not familiar with the sites and smells, the food and culture, the religion and beliefs, this huge melting pot that India is. The warmth and affection of the neighborhood embraced him with open arms. Amidst all this he meets the beautiful Bittu, who is looking for identity and expression and wants to break free from the typical Indian social structure, to whom Roshan is destined to lose his heart. The story is told against the backdrop of the ancient walled city of Delhi who is a character in herself. A microcosm of India, the city represents the chaos of our land, its people, and their religion and their beliefs. The pin code of this old city is 110006.

Yeh Silly hai mere yaar

It's hard to qualify Delhi-6 as an actual film. And if dying means I get to wear white and sit next to Amitabh Bachchan and eat jalebis, I really wouldn't mind being run over by a bus.

Has a little of many things.

All in all Delhi-6 is a film that most will find difficult to slot in one genre. It’s not just a romantic film. Nor is it a drama only. And that’s what is going to trouble Delhi-6 the most.

Ekdum desi India feel

Delhi 6, which, is a delectable paapdi-chaat of big, bustling, bulging India. The climax draws away from the appeal of the film.

The basic primise of the story is very flimsy.

It’s a message with a heart and mind. And though murky it comes across because of Mehra’s goof up with the plot, it makes Delhi 6 worth a visit at least.

Delhi-6, a film with heart

Delhi 6 isn't great cinema like Mehra's Rang De Basanti but it's a pleasing tapestry of tender moments and of diverse characters who engage you in their lives. It's a very watchable film.

Lacks any significant plot.

I recommend you give Delhi 6 a dekko, but sans the great expectations. Like life, it isn't perfect- and it's the little things that make it special and worth experiencing.

A Tribute to Kaala Bandar

Despite of few flaws, it’s a movie to be watched. Good entertainment with some flavors of emotions and diversity of topics

Delhi-6 is disappointing

Delhi-6 fails in all departments – acting, direction, dialogues, characterisation and cinematography and even in its use of the songs. Don't bother wasting your money on this one.

6 degrees of confusion

The film has a bigger disaster: the climax, which is a huge letdown; no, downright ludicrous. And that completely gratuitous scene with Amitabh Bachchan— heavens, what was Mehra thinking?

Shashi Baliga at Hindustantimes

Delhi-6 is nowhere close to Rang De Basanti

The story is dated, the screenplay long-drawn - in spite of a short running time of 2 hrs 20 mins, the film stretches at a number of places - and the motive unclear.

Aniruddha Guha at Dnaindia

Delhi-6 is quite colourless

The characters and the tracks soon start jumbling up, giving way for continuity lapses in the multi-dimensional narrative.

Gaurav Malini at Movies

Watch it if you have nothing better to do.

What Delhi 6 lacks is a crisp plotline. The characterization is poor and nothing that the character does is clear. In fact no situation or anything that happens has a good reason and nothing evokes any kind of emotion.

Ashok Nayak at Nowrunning

So simple from above and yet so lusciously layered beneath

The dynamics of a culturally-decaying society are projected into scenes that come together as vibrant vignettes drawn with sincerity affection and transparency from the most enduring and endearing colours of life.
