criticism

“(...) the film (is) racy staged with a running length of only 121 minutes. Little bacon and ballast on the strip. And it's just filmed beautifully. The landscape of Spiti is stunning and the color constellation with the red monk's robes (and the beautiful Udita) create impressive images. The plot is also able to entertain to some extent despite major logic weaknesses and semi-strong villains. At the very end a long and intimate kiss, daring for Bollywood, is the crowning glory. "Paap" is not a sensational film, but an acceptable debut. "(From molodezhnaja.ch)
