PERFORMANCES: Aditya Roy Kapur as Noor Nizami gives quite a layered & steady performance.Katrina Kaif as Firdaus looks stunning. But when it comes to her act, she does not exactly give us anything great to marvel on or remember.Tabu as Begum Hazrat is clearly the show-stealer of the film. She owns the character of Miss Havisham and one truly feels the pain behind those dark circled eyes that have cried a thousand rivers. She is exceptional in the film with her attitude and her arrogant yet heart-broken tone.Rahul Bhat is seen in a supporting role as Bilal, Firdaus’ fiancé and he does a good job.Aditi Rao Hydari looks stunning as the young Begum.

MUSIC: is composed by Amit Trivedi.only 'Fitoor' and 'Pashmina' stands out.

The film is visually stunning.Kashmir is brilliantly captured by Anay Goswamy's camera.The costumes are attractive.The scene of the bomb blast seems so real and comes so sudden that it will surely give you a jerk.

Director seems extremely confused in his narrative of Fitoor.The screenplay is disappointing & confusing.There are many scenes in the film that do no good to the film, but only land up confusing the viewers

Overall,Fitoor is one time watch only for performances by the leading characters & great visuals.
