Please accept my sincerest best for a lovely enjoyable film. Don't know Irfan and maushami handle. Who has written photographed edited this brilliant Piku? Director Shoojit, doff my hat! All character actors, some I don't know fabulous. Wonderful natural performance in Piku. My sincere congratulations to one and all in the film. God Bless!

Boman Irani: Finally watched #Piku A week too late I'm afraid! Doesn't matter, since it will be loved and remembered for years to come. Adjectives will be a mere jumble of words put together to attempt praise #Piku deserves the timeless affection a cinegoer is capable of. As @SrBachchan @deepikapadukone &@irrfan_k deliver their best ever, what are the odds of it happening in one car on a magical trip? With #Piku Mr @ShoojitSircar has delivered the most glorious, (bum)py joy ride of that we have been yearning for years.

Simi Garewal: Don't be distracted by the @deepikapadukone glamour! She’s a truly gifted actor. Among the finest! From Ram Leela to #Piku what a range! Dearest @SrBachchan you were incredible! As usual! You showed us again in #Piku that talent like yours can never be matched. Love you. 140 words not enuf to describe @deepikapadukone performance in #Piku. Its not acting. Its REAL. Few can produce this level of naturalness.
