Honestly "on a scale of 1 to 10" followed by random trivia is one of my favourite part of Sucharita's review. Please don't change that.

[@JiteshShahani]

Subhransu Panda totally, also like how she comes up with a new way to tell people to subscribe.

[@Stephensofceea]

I second it. Hope Sucharita sees this comment

[@Ravi-xf8dw]

Yes

[@stifler4eva1]

Some people (new subscribers) find it confusing and think there is some cryptic hint there. Even i tried to decode it when I was new here only to figure out that it's just random facts as you pointed out. 😜

[@sanaxx5]

Agreed!

[@anujadhyani3148]

Anupama : she has made this entire business of bollywood so classy and a school in itself.she is educated,well spoken and is like my school teacher who can give an honest review with magic of words. Sucharita: isnt she like the drama queen friend we all have,funny and super intelligent.im a fan of both of you. Lots of love !!

[@ShubhamShetMhapsekar0969]

Rahul calling Aquaman a Marvel movie - This comment section is going to explode.

[@sebiandthestars]

It's a crime.

[@PintuSingh-yq4eg]

It's his loss that he doesn't watch Superhero movies thinking it's kind of cliçhé. But in reality people love to see what they can't do in real life and thats why we watch movies. Not everytime we can watch the realistic cinemas, sometime we want junk foods too and if the junk food is like MCU then hell yeah I will eat 4-5 times a year

[@rosunrajkumar876]

Can't believe Rahul picked up my Comment! :) All these trolling has come to some fruition!

[@rashmikamath6882]

Kudos to you guys for doing this! But Sucharita, you do talk about the story more than required. The point is, you don’t say it but knowingly/unknowingly you hint at the story that is not in the trailer. For example with Kedarnath, the continuous reference and comparison to Titanic kind of gave away the ending. I think you said something along the lines of, ‘these are some of the similarities with titanic and there are more but I don’t want to give away spoilers’ I’m paraphrasing of course. But you get the point. This has happened with other reviews as well. Hope this comes across as the constructive criticism it was meant to be :) Love you anyway :) Also, Rahul Desai is bae!!

[@akashdubey5250]

On the scale of 1 to 10 is the best thing of film companion..!! Dare not stop it!!

[@val-schaeffer1117]

What exactly is "coming out of disrespect"? Why should we by default hold our filmmakers and actors on high pedestal? People deserve as much respect as they earn!

[@yashshetye721]

So many of the comments just talk abt how these critics use big words and heavy grammar, so why is that a problem? , its not their fault that u guys are bad in english. I, for one, love reviews that have good grammar and clever phrases because then i end up learning words that i havent heard of before....To all those who have a problem with Rahul or anupama's english, why dont u try learning proper english first?

[@ee.-.8743]

I found this very entertaining. Comments were more hilarious than mean. Had a good laugh at your reactions to them 😊😂

[@ksowrya1]

Haha love it but man this year went by quick. It felt like it was just last week that Anu, Rajeev & Rahul sat down to discuss the hits and misses of 2017

I always love reading Rahul Desai’s review of B-grade mainstream flicks like Bhatt camp stuff. It’s never about ratings to me. It’s just the joy of reading his colourful view which, more often than not, better than the movies themselves. You go Glenn Coco! #TwoStarsInTheSkyRahulDesai 🙌🏽

[@vinit4647]

thank you Anupama and SUCHARITA for being such a big part of the beginning of my career and film. #mami #indiagold.

[@vivekian1]

20:37 Anupama's rebuttal was the best! And yes, please be intelligent. Have conversations around movies, because movies, viewers, and critics - we all deserve better or perhaps the best, every single time. Kudos to Film Companion! Never miss a video. Rarely comment.

[@srivishnu9642]

It'll be super cool if you did "kind comments" to show people out there that criticism can be nice, can be light hearted and can lead to a discourse. Also most people leave mean comments but the nice ones max like a video, I understand. But another positive video with your amazing attitudes will be a boon to the community. I feel it. :)

[@parul2105]

Nice people of Ghatkopar would like to thank Sucharita for mentioning our high quality IMAX. My major criticism of movies nowadays is use of Ghatkopar as new age jumritaliya or timbakatu - unacceptable geographical habitation place!!!!

[@anthonyfernandes80]

Picture this. I get to the office around 7 am every morning and put on my headphones and listen to your videos, as and when they are posted (yes listen and not watch because I have to pretend to work :D). I'm sure colleagues around me are wondering why I'm laughing and/or smiling when I'm supposed to be writing code! I truly enjoy these segments and wish: a) You would post many more like these (and just one or two a week) b) And for a longer duration. P.S. I'm genuinely happy for KRK, who thanks to you guys, is mentioned on a show that isn't produced, directed and written by him.

[@sheershj]

The only reason I watch FC is to watch Anupama Chopra. You're the sweetest orator ever. More than the celebrity I watch you in an interview. ❤️

[@shekhar7singh]

Anupama: Didi bola hai yaar. Sucharita:May be because he is scared. Matlab ladki ko respect see bolo to tum ushse darte ho.🤔

[@Ay_e_sha]

Guys, you're all amazing. Most of the criticisms mentioned in the comments you read out were pretty dumb. Stay cerebral and the words (including somnabulistic!) and the complex sentence structure used in your reviews is a joy to read/watch.

[@tanayyd5951]

Oy Sucharita Thank you very much for those tweets based on ur personal experiences! That really cheered me up :')

[@42VS]

On a scale of 1 to 10, Sucharita's rating scale is fiftyyyy times more interesting than the lame mean comments she gets. Not against mean comments guys, but at least put some effort into them. Suchi deserves it. :P

[@canttouchthis5735]

I've written this before and Il say it again. I've really begun to appreciate Rahul's reviews. He articulates his reviews so well and they are absolutely accurate. I look forward to reading his reviews.

[@fireisawesome1466]

Mr desai I recommend few movies if you are interested:Winnie the pooh (2011), Kuruthipunal, Aditya 369 ,even resent abhimanyudu or singam series (Tamil version). Indian cinema has evoluted the discarded trend of hollywood like musicals and 80s action movies to the point where they are better then hollywood musicals and 80s action movies coming out now like fast and furious movies

Well I do want to hear good comments also similar to this episode , I mean why in every interview in world it's only about mean comments and not about compliments, it would make loyal #fc fans acknowledged

[@abhiharittas]

Guys, a request from my side. I thought about it after you guys mentioned about revisiting Swades. Why don't you guys revisit and review more movies from the 90s till 2010-12 and make it into a series? I know there's the '50 movies' series from Anupama, which is great BTW. But a regular series where you review 1 or 2 old movies every week, maybe something available on OTTs. So we have something to kick back on the weekends.

[@Ravi-xf8dw]

Thank you all three. And congratulations on 500k.

[@ArjunRoy5]

On the subject of comments, why not make a video on The Best Comments of 2018? It will be awesome to see what other members of Film Companion community think about the channel. Loving the 'Best of 2018' content so far!

[@sarahsiddiqui6494]

Making jokes about the Yash Raj comments doesn't change the fact that you guys have conscious/unconscious bias towards big banner films. Even the interviews Anupama conducts include privileged stars more and a few deserving artists sprinkled in between to seem legitimate. The recent Karan Johar producers interview is an example.

[@salmankhalid4422]

I just love Anupama Chopra. I come here(film companion) every other day to find new stuff from her. I just love her reviews. I love the way Sucharita pronounces her name. I just found her a few days back. Another great critic.

As Rahul was talking about Ashutosh Gowariker movies and spelt out two of his favourites, I wonder what would his review be on What's Your Raashee? Also guys you all can come up with a joint session discussing/reviewing your personal favourites from yesteryears. That could be fun.

[@gulshanchopra5702]

@anupama: u can always review ur husband’s movies after the movie is out of cinema.

Sucharita's go to word is "conviction".

[@rajeshkant5446]

This is funny but hypocritical. When other filmmakers say what have you done yourself that you are criticizing then you'd say the argument isn't valid because it's your job to criticize. At the same time when your consumers criticize you, you laugh them off as "mean comments".

[@saktiprasadswain6546]

[@besufekadmulu965]

[@imrsidhu7735]

I am amazed by the kind of attention is given to people who only trash talk of others. Why not most appreciated comments video? Why only mean comments? I do watch Anupama & sometimes Sucharita and I always don't agree with them, but I do understand that they are human and they also have the right to have their opinions. Anyways, nice responses guys. Don't take any negativity to your heart. Take it as a stepping stone. I dunno who said it, but they said it true, 'Those who are beneath you, are the ones that can pull you down.' Cheers Karan.
