 * Red information icon with gradient background.svg Not done: I am not confident that these are reliable sources. It appears to be a marketing or press release of some sort that has been mirrored to multiple sites. -- ferret (talk) 17:30, 22 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Yellow check.svg Partly done: - I've neither made a new section, nor added changes exactly what you have requested above, but have used sources given above, to write few lines under existing Marketing section of the article. Feel free to re-open the request, if you are not satisfied and want something else to be added there. However, I'd suggest you to not request irrelevant changes, as Wikipedia is not a newspaper. All three sources have the identical contents, that's what bring me doubt, if it is a paid news.
 * - Indian Express and Zee News are actually reliable sources. :) Anupmehra  - Let's talk!  17:38, 22 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Noted. I should have worded differently, but my intent was as you said, that it is paid news. I suppose if an RS carries it, it's usable, but there was no attribution to an author and so I doubted it. -- ferret (talk) 17:45, 22 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Hi,, - Believe me, I could have closed it exactly same way, giving the same rationale as yours, if I was not familiar of the cited sources very well. Yes, the articles published are not attributed to an individual, but it is still published in reliable sources, which have editorial oversight, that way, we may give it a little attention avoiding promotional tone.

Its been clearly seen that the film is not what the producers mentioned as trailer like this "The promos of the film revealed that it belongs to a new genre of musical heist" after everyone watched 2001 American film "Ocean's Eleven". The Plot and some Scenes are lifted without prior copyrights. May be we can write as been inspired by Ocean's Eleven film.

 * 1) Rename Criticism section to Critical reception, -because it basically deals with reception of the film on the box office and comments regarding the same by notable figures and media houses.
 * 2) Expand the section as following,

Domestic
The film generally received the negative responses from critics and an average rating of 2-2.5 out of 5 stars. Saurabh Gupta of Indian Express rated the film 2 out of 5 stars calling it a Mera Bharat Mahan sentiments type movie, and a cross between an Oceans 11/12 and Flashdance. NDTV also rated the film 2 out of stars and said that the irrespective of collection on box office by film, it has nothing new to offer. Mihir Fadnavis of First Post said that, the movie looks and feels like a home video project that was intended for appreciation by precisely two people in the entire universe - Farah and Shah Rukh Khan and appears to be Ocean 11's rewritten by baboons. Rohit Vats of Hindustan Times gave the film 2.5 out of 5 stars taking on originality, said that ''Originality? What's that, ask Farah Khan in Happy New Year''.

International
Reuters's Shilpa Jamkhandikar said that the film has liberally borrowed from Hollywood heist films, in particular from Steven Soderbergh’s Ocean’s Eleven. The first half is lighter and genuinely funny at times, But as the second half wears on, the proceedings become monotonous. Lisa Tsering of The Hollywood Reporter reviewed film as, an ambitious musical, a love story and an Oceans 11-style crime caper. Rediff rated the film 2 out of 5 stars, and said the film plays out like a spoof from the get go, a gigantic lark where nothing is taken seriously. Sami Qahar of Dawn gave the film 2.5 out 5 stars and said the film is  Ocean’s Eleven plusItalian Job plus Step Up all in one…on cheap shape-deteriorating steroids.

Shah Rukh or Shahrukh
There are two different ways to write his name. Shah Rukh Khan changed his name from Shahrukh to Shah Rukh. So why do we write it in two different ways in one article? It looks better if it's one of these two. And now I'm asking which one do we take? It makes more sense writing it Shah Rukh Khan than Shahrukh Khan, because of the short version SRK --Shwayze (talk) 10:17, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Given our article is Shah Rukh Khan (Shahrukh Khan is a redirect to it), using the actual article-name here would be self-consistent. The choice for his own article gives prominence to what he is currently and/or most-commonly called, which also seem like pretty good reasons to use here. DMacks (talk) 21:04, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
