Performances are outstanding: Mithun Chakraborty is the soul of the film.The legendary actor delivers one of the strongest performances of his career.He’s fantastic.Dimple is excellent; playing her part with amazing understanding.Rati is good in a cameo appearance.Rimoh Mithun Chakraborty makes a good debut as an actor, the son of the legendary actor is confident all the way. Gulshan Grover & Tinnu Anand are lovable in their roles.Neha Jhulka impresses. Others are perfect.
on the whole ‘Phir Kabhi’ is outstanding work of cinema. Two Big Thumbs Up!
