silvan-desouza Some filmmakers use gimmicks to make their films succeed Vikram Bhatt uses sex here, the film was considered one of the boldest film in Indian cinema with lot of sex scenes though the story is nothing great, also the way in which Paolo seeks revenge looks childish Some scenes are well handled but nothing out of the worldDirection by Vikram Bhatt is okay Music is decentPaoli Dam is nothing great, Gulshan Devaiyaa does a good job, Nikhil Dwivedi is okay, Joy Sengupta is okay rest don't impressThe film was a much talked about film when released and gave a new lease to markets which resulted in Jism 2 type films

kevinspells1990 Unlike the usual Bollywood flicks this is more gruesome.Most of Bhatt's movies are based on greed and revenge Hate story is one of them. The casting of the movie is not good. Paoli Dam was not at her best, i mean the movie has many sex scenes but she doesn't fit it. Bhatt should have cast Esha Gupta(Jannat2) for this role because she's HOT. The movie has some eye openers like corruption, scams. I reckon you don't watch this movie with your family because it's "A" rated film. I had more expectations from this film when i seen the banners(Paoli's naked back) but when the seen her face if was like(who made her a heroine). The script is not that bad but not worth a watch. My rating 5/10 1 star for story2 star for actor(Gulshan Devaiah)2 star for the eye openers

pcsarkar The female protagonist, played by Paoli Dam, gets bamboozled by a tycoon's son, and it would have been a wonder if she hadn't been. Greedy, simple-minded, over-confident and full of silly attitude, she was a sitting duck for the ordeal that she had to face; such was her stupidity that she also managed to get pregnant (in this day and age!) in just one night of wild abandon. The tycoon's son was ruthless, but not ruthless enough, so she managed to survive the ordeal, and continued to drum up trouble for the bloke all through the film. And that about sums up this 'story'. The film appears to be have been written specifically for Paoli.. there is hardly any frame in which she is not present. The villain (=tycoon's son), played by newcomer, Gulshan Devaiah, is villainous enough. Rest of the cast is inconsequential. There is a lot of unnecessary, jarring background music.. and a lot of unnecessary panning and wide-angle shots of Delhi, and its neighborhood: Gurgaon and Ghaziabad. Are we trying to impress an international audience that we too have high-rises, a metro rail, a dazzling city center (Connaught Place), heritage buildings (India Gate) and ghettos (Chandni Chowk)? Sometimes, the proceedings border on the ridiculous. For example, when our high-profile heroine approaches a high-class prostitute to learn some tips on how to become a high-class prostitute herself. Apparently, the tips are successful, for soon, from penury, our heroine owns a Mercedes and moves into a sprawling, super-deluxe bungalow. Wow!!There is a lot of hate here, but no story. I just hope young, impressionable girls do not take the film's underlying message seriously - that blackmail and prostitution are sure-shot ways of getting rich in the shortest possible time.

yunusitboss Hate Story (A)-----------Rating: 1/5It is a Bollywood Erotic film....a very draggy feels sleepy..... But the end was great...it is a revenge story.....It is about a reporter who becomes a victim of forced abortion and later turns into a whore to plot a vengeance scheme against the man who ruined her life.The Story of the film revolves around Kaavya and her transformation from a simple middle class journalist to a sex worker and her revenge where she is exploited both professionally and sexually. Thus begins the journey of Hatred and brutal vengeance.This affects everyone around Kaavya, including her family and her best friend who secretly loves her, and different people coming in the path of her quest.
