Reviews
	Great
IndiaFM 4.0	"...a well-told story that has all it takes to appeal to kids and kids at heart, besides striking a chord with the families"
IndiCine 4.0	"...It has something in it for every generation. Do catch it this weekend"
Stardust 4.0	"...An excellent fare"
Indya.com 4.0	"...is definitely what the doctor ordered"
NDTV 4.0	"...a sparkling fairy tale"
Telegraph India 4.0	"...warm, delightful"
	Good
RadioSargam 3.5	"...promises something for the entire family"
AllBollywood.com 3.5	"...a good family entertainer"
Movie Talkies 3.5	"...extremely likeable and enjoyable film"
IndiaGlitz 3.5	"...A complete family treat!"
Planet Bollywood 3.3	"...a light film for young children with a much weightier adult oriented ending"
Deccan Herald 3.0	"...Though Sharma insists that Bhoothnath is not really a �children�s film,� the truth is that the kids will enjoy it more than you"
Without Giving The Movie Away 3.0	"...surely deserves credit for not taking its younger target audience for granted"
Now Running 3.0	"...works on every level although the music is disappointing. Go for it, you wont be disappointed"
DNA India 3.0	"...A �spirited� little effort"
Glamsham 3.0	"...This film will be a hit with kids. "
Movie Walah 3.0	"...touches you so much that you leave the theater taking it along with you"
MTV India 3.0	"...was well written with the first half very amusing with rather funny dialogues & situations"
Mag 4 You 3.0	"... a good film"
The Indian Express 3.0	"...take the kids, and whisk them away swiftly before it gets all too heavy"
Baradwaj Rangan 3.0	"...worthwhile"
Smash Hits 3.0	"...a good film to pass this weekend with your kids"
	Average
Andhra Cafe 2.5	"...Bhootnath' tells us ghosts are not scary, they can be fun"
Screen India 2.5	"...take the kids, and whisk them away swiftly before it gets all too heavy. "
BoxOfficeIndia 2.5	"...Young kids watching this film would want to leave the theatre after the first half as it has nothing in store for them"
Now Running 2 2.5	"...isn't exceptionally smart or witty, but is enjoyable in its own sweet way"
ApunKaChoice 2.5	"...a wee bit scary, amply funny, and more than generously melodramatic"
Times Now 2.5	"...No harm watching Bhoothnath once but it�s sadly not a film you�ll remember ages after you�ve watched it"
Times Of India 2.5	"...With Bhootnath, Bollywood too recognises the need to cater to the fast growing tween and teen population with specially crafted family drama meant to spice up the vacation"
Subhash Jha 2.5	"...tells us ghosts are not scary, they can be fun. At the end of the blithe film we believe the director even if we don't belive in ghosts at all"
Full Hyderabad 2.3	"...decent fun, and half way entertaining, too. Despite a nonexistent plot and barely there chills, the film chugs along merrily for the most part"
Rediff 2.0	"...more than a bit of a drag"
Business Of Cinema 2.0	"...A golden opportunity squandered. That's Bhoothnath in a nutshell"
IBN Live 2.0	"...Take your kids to the film, but make sure you don't stay longer than intermission"
	Poor
Hindustan Times 1.5	"...SRK is criminally wasted in a role that was obviously set up to boost �star value� just in case"
Buzz 18 1.5	"...huge letdown to say the least"
Mumbai Mirror 1.0	"...You clearly don't know who this movie is meant for"
