Ever since the trailer, or rather the film announcement, comparisons between the original Sairat and its remake Dhadak have been doing the rounds of social media.
Now that the movie has released, have a look at what the Twitterati have to say before you plan your weekend outing:
#DhadakReviewSee sairat and you will be wowed by everything in the movie. See dhadak and you will realise what a waste of money!

I was sure I wont like #Dhadak but just couldn’t dislike it. #IshaanKhatter is superb n has a great career ahead. Ishaan n #Janhvi‘s chemistry shine. @ShashankKhaitan you hv made a beautiful film . Music is the USP @DharmaMovies @karanjohar @MovieTalkies #dhadakreview

#DhadakReview – Disappointing!!!!

Remember one thing. It’s sin to touch some Masterpieces and #Sairat was one of ‘em. There’s no reality in the movie. The only thing you can see in the movie was introducing the late Sridevi’s daughter to the industry. And to do that, they’ve remaked the classic. #DhadakReview

#DhadakReview One thing is sure #Sairat is far better than #Dhadak in every aspect. There is no point of comparison. It’s better to watch Sairat again.

A predictable crap packaged so that a bunch of braindead socialmedia upstarts can create a halo as if Bollywood has found Sridevi’s replacement in her non-actor daughter#DhadakReview

#DhadakReview worst movie.. Sairat was way better. Don’t waste your time and money

#DhadakReview wasted my precious money.

#DhadakReview If Karan Johar would have reduced the costume budget, this movie could have been as brilliant as the performance of Ishaan Khattar in it. Janhvi doesn’t look comfortable speaking in Hindi. However, she does a few scenes quite well.

#Dhadak is not good as #Sairat .average acting by #JanhviKapoor ..#Dhadak is an average movie.#Dhadakreview

#DhadakReview: ##Dhadak is a good love story film. #IshaanKhattar #JahnviKapoor has given a nice performance and @ShashankKhaitan adapts #Sairat wonderfully well. Hence, I give ⭐️⭐️⭐️3/5 to #Dhadak film. @karanjohar @DharmaMovies @apoorvamehta18 @KuttySujay @ZeeStudios_

Parthavi has her hair and makeup on point through the film — when she’s being chased out of town or having an emotional outburst. It’s almost as if makeup didi and stylist dada were inadvertently a part of her tumultuous journey.😂😂😂😂#DhadakReview

If Dhadak earns more money than Sairat, talent loses to money

Comparing #Dhadak with #sairat is like comparing a complete blunder or a shit to an iconic movie.#DhadakReview
— Harley Quinn (@HarleyQ302) July 20, 2018
I remember watching #Sairat & my reaction – I thought it was an honest film with a big heart that leaves you with a massive lump in your throat at the end. I just watched #Dhadak & it absolutely made me feel every single one of that emotion all over again. @ShashankKhaitan
— Karan Lalit Butani (@karanlbutani) July 19, 2018
#Dhadak is a body of #Sairat but has its own soul. Film treatment is very different compared to Sairat, film lacks that rawness of sairat. Performances of Ishaan & Jhaanvi is good, specially Jhaanvi is a surprise package, her voice reminds of sri mam . Rating- ⭐️⭐️⭐️
— Sumit kadel (@SumitkadeI) July 20, 2018
The good news is that Janhvi is terrific.. the bad news is though the 1st half is engrossing but post interval its boring & predictable… #Dhadak‘s climax is not for the weak hearted… See it only for Janhvi..
