one of the greatest performance of Sanju, 4 March 2001
Author: Zahed Hossain from AUSTRALIA
It is one of greatest performance ever made by Sanjay Dutt. this movie is primarily based on the firm bondage between two brothers Sanjay Dutt and Kumar Gourav and gradually turned into the saga of Sanjay alone. This film also made Paresh Rawal as a stunning villain of Hindi film industry. The song Chtti Aihey by Pankaj Udhas is one of his most touching songs. Above all this film is the turning point of the career of Sanjay Dutt and the mile stone for director Mahesh Bhatt as a commercial director.

Chithi Ayee Hei..., 26 March 2007
Author: Biswajit Tripathy from India
*** This comment may contain spoilers ***
Janki (Nutan) stays with her two sons Ravi (Kumar Gaurav) and Vicky (Sanjay Dutt). They are from a lower middle class family. To add to the woes, Vicky has gone wayward. He always falls in some problem or other and is always rescued by Ravi. Whenever he does some mistake Ravi always saves him. Vicky wants to make it big and hence decides to go to Dubai where he has heard a lot of people make it big. Ravi arranges money for Vicky and inspite of Janki's resistance, Vicky leaves for Dubai. After reaching he comes to know that the agent who had taken money from them has vanished with the money. The Visa he has obtained is also not legal. Now he does not want to go back and face his mother's wrath. Hence he starts working for a dreaded smuggler Rana (Paresh Rawal) to stay in Dubai.
The movie was a ht among masses during those days which ran houseful for months altogether. Sanjay Dutt played a memorable role in the movie. The song "Chithi Ayee hei" still makes your eyes go wet. Other songs like Amiron ki Shaaam, Tu kal chala jayega were songs to reckon with. Nice story, direction, cinematography and acting by lead actors makes this movie a memorable one. The movie produced a fine actor called Paresh Rawal and also made Sanjay Dutt a Star. Produced & Directed by Mahesh Bhatt, this is one of the best Mahesh Bhatt's movie ever.

Outstanding, 5 September 2005
Author: pardo3 from United Kingdom
Naam is a terrific treat and a great film, The music and the acting of Sanjay Dutt was out of this world.
The story at the start is slow and boring but it's worth the wait because the second part of the film is outstanding and Sanjay Dutt in this section of the film is out of this world and gives Amitabh Bachchan a run for his money, Reminds you of the similarities of the role Amitabh Bachchan plays in some of his early films, A Shame Sanjay Dutt couldn't do roles like this more often, A one off Sanjay Dutt stunner,
A must watch Film, A film you can watch over and over again.
Mahesh Bhatt's one of the best films, 30 April 2009
Author: silvan-desouza from India
Mahesh Bhatt made several great films in 80's This is one of his most memorable films and proved Sanju as a performer
The film story is similar to DEEWAAR and other films but Mahesh Bhatt handled it very well
Sanjay's character is well handled and at start the story is clichéd and not too involving but when Sanjay migrates the film catches your attention
The film keeps one's attention and there are several great scenes
Sanjay Dutt going the wrong path and Kumar going to search him is well handled
Though Kumar Gaurav gets more footage at times then Sanju yet it's Sanju's role thats more appealing like Bachchan in DEEWAAR
Mahesh Bhatt does a great job Music is okay
Sanjay Dutt excels in his role though he was raw those days yet he handles the role very well Kumar Gaurav is decent, a bit awkward at places Amrita Singh is decent Paresh Rawal excels
Best Movie, 23 October 2008
Author: Partha Barman from India
After watching this movie I felt that this movie really touches your heart. Its a must watch movie if you appreciate good movies. It also lime-lights the facts in life, the ethics that what to follow and what not to. It also gives essence to nationality and the pain one goes though without their family and loved ones. The love for one's mother, one's brother and the responsibility one should never forget is the main theme of the movie. Life has no meaning without near and dear ones. I think Kumar Gaurav and Sanjay Dutt did a splendid job and there is no other way to make this film better. I think this movie is a milestone to the history of Indian Film Industry.
