Ananya and Ishaan have managed to win hearts with their sizzling chemistry in the film. The child artists stole the limelight from others with their impeccable performances. Here's what Twitterati said about 'Khaali Peeli'!



"You don't have to be Khaali-peeli if you wish to watch #KhaaliPeeli . Watch it even if you are very busy. Else you will miss something great," one user wrote.



"#KhaaliPeeli is like a old wine which is served in a Rusty bottle, a typical 70s film which offers nothing new to audience, not at all worth 299/-," another user wrote on the micro-blogging site.



"@ananyapandandayy and #IshaanKhatter 's on-screen chemistry is worth a watch! This fresh duo has done an impeccable job in #KhaaliPeeli in their Kaali Peeli," Bollywood critic Ramesh Bala tweeted.



Trade analyst Sumit Kadel gave 'Khaali Peeli' two stars out of five. He wrote, "Outdated masala flick which fails to entertain & enthrall  the audience . Ishaan & Ananya Panday acts are the weakest aspect of the film, none of them neither looks & acts like tapori’s . Maqbool khan direction is very poor."
