It's a smart new concept, a snazzy coupling between Neil and Bipasha and a thriller's edge that keeps Aa Dekhen Zara cruising along. 3/5

On the whole, EK - THE POWER OF ONE is age-old masala with new packaging. It's more for the Hindi belt than the metros. 2/5

Ek-The Power of One isn't new-age cinema by any standards, but it holds your interest at several points, especially the penultimate 20 minutes. It's strictly for those in a mood to catch a mass entertainer. 2/5
Times of India
The title Ek – The Power of One doesn’t hold much relevance to the film since there are ‘two’ protagonists with both putting ‘powerless’ performances. 1/5

The pacing, which is luxurious in the first half as the film takes its time to set up the atmospherics, but terribly rushed in the second. 2.5/5

Heaven on Earth turns into a hell of a viewing experience. 1.5/5

Heaven on Earth may have received a few film festival awards but now in its Hindi dubbed version as Videsh, it is certainly not a film which will entertain you 1.5/5

On the whole, VIDESH - HEAVEN ON EARTH works in parts, but it's not enough. At the box-office, the Indian market may not be too receptive to the film. It will have to look internationally to recoup the investment.
