One line which describes the film - Eroticism without thrill
Genre - Erotic Thriller
Budget- 15-20 crores including P & A
The only saving grace of the film is it's music. Amaal Malik and Armaan Malik can really make it big if they continue with their hard work.

Hate Story (2012) directed by Vivek Agnihotri was the most riveting and aesthetic saga of a woman's revenge against the man using unconventional means. According to Wikipedia before it's release the Central Board of Film Certification ordered the sex scenes in the movie to be reduced by 50% leaving the dialogues untouched. Because of it's novelty and thrill the film was a sleeper hit despite new actors and no promotions.
Hate Story 2 (2014) had a bigger budget and more promotions including an item number ' Pink Lips' by Sunny Leone. Though Sushant Singh and Surveen Chawla were no match to the Gulshan Devaiya and Paoli Dam pair still the film was a much bigger hit.
There was great buzz for the third part as there were lot of promotions including the visit of both leading ladies in Salman Khan's show 'Big Boss 9'
The film started like normal Bollywood films, corporate scenes, peppy dance numbers, skyscrapers, bare chested heroes, scantily dressed heroines and some melodious songs. After an hour came the interval and till then there was no hate in the film only erotic songs every now and then. In fact till interval the audience could not even decide who was the good guy and who was the bad guy.
After interval too the same song and dance ritual continued with some lame attempt at story telling.
The story was so poor that anyone who watches films can conclude that Vikram Bhatt has straight away ripped the story from Sleeping with the Enemy(1991), Race (2008) , Corporate (2006), Indecent Proposal (1993) and other famous films. There was not a single innovative idea in the film.
The director was not the hero of this film, he is the one who has totally done injustice to the 'hate story' tag.
The exceptional box office performance of the film (23-26 Crores in just 3 days) can only be because of the negative reviews Tamasha got from both the critics and audiences .
Sharman Joshi and Karan Singh have given average performances. Both were given ample screen space but they are just ordinary in the film.
Zarine Khan has lost weight and looked better than her earlier films. Though she needs to improve a lot on her acting skills. It was hard to guess whether she was smiling or crying or aroused in many scenes.
It's no secret that Daisy Shah was brought aboard the project through Salman Khan's insistence. She had to do her share of skin show and scenes. Salman Khan too must have thought after watching the film that if she had done all this in their film Jai Ho (2014) even that film would have done well at the Box Office.
In a line despite the Hate Story tag the film is not about hate, it's only about making love whether or not the script demands it.
Do you actually want to pay money to watch 'erotica' ?
