12 year old Mickey's life was almost like a fairy tale, a beautiful family, best buddy 'Bonnie' and his angel on earth-Mitika.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

This was a really poor adaptation of the Tom Hanks Blockbuster 'Big' it was so melodramatic and over-the-top that I felt like I was watching a soap-opera. The little kid who plays Mickey was a little too rude for my liking but I guess most kids are like that at that age. And it did not help any that they dressed Johnny Lever up like a cross between Johnny Depp's Captain Jack Sparrow and Amitabh Bachchan from 'Jhoom Barabar Jhoom'. It looked like it was shot on the same set as the Amitabh Bachchan starrer 'Aladin', the songs were cute but annoying, the girl who plays the love interest was just required too look pretty and nothing else, it's clear that somebody sure had a little too much fun making this film. Only watch this if you're a fan of one or more of the talent within the film. Aftab is always good in whatever he acts in but this is one script I wish he would have passed on. All of that and the fact that this movie was a tad-bit too long.

Till this day I am eagerly waiting for Aftab to Bring another movie like KASOOR or FOOTHPATH. He acted superbly in KASOOR, but now he seems to be getting worse at his acting as he keeps making more. I really really want to like him and his movies but when he keeps doing flops like this one, it gets really hard to like him and his acting.How can you even come close to act like Tom Hanks from the movie "Big"? Yes this whole movie was the copy of Hollywood Movie Big, actually this turned even worse as the story went on because Aftab was overacting soooo much. He should've studied Tom Hanks thoroughly. He also acted in that Ridiculous copy of "Death at a Funeral" in Daddy Cool, and overdid his character so much compared to UK version.The only good thing about this movie was Aamna Shariff, she is very pretty and is a very decent actor. That's why Aloo Chaat worked. Aloo Chaat's storyline was great and her acting was superb in it. In this one she kept trying her best but the storyline lacked soo much that it seemed as if she had to struggle.And Honestly HOW CAN U CHOOSE A COMEDY LEGEND JOHNNY LEVER for the most ridiculous character ever. Even he's loosing his respect for himself and his career for taking such stupid roles. Honestly this movie is not worth wasting your time, if you want to see a better Aftab and Aamna Shariff decent movie then just watch Aloo chaat instead!

Thank god for a simple and sweet movie. Not trying to preach you anything big, not having a huge moral, or a huge budget, or super stars trying to look super cool, thank god for all that. The first thing you'd notice about Aao Wish Karien is, that it is an amazingly sweet movie, which makes you laugh and cry and certain points, and I can't wait to say this, I think Aftab has arrived. The performance of Aaftab was so nuanced and well balanced, a grown up with a heart and mind of kid, it reminded me of Hrithik's performance in Krish, only there was no over the top ham acting. Story is, in one line, a kid who wishes to grow up because the girl he loves thinks he is a kid, actually grows up the next day. Like all the good movies, I didn't think it was long, I didn't go out during the songs, I laughed at the right moments (others laughed as well) and was holding back a tear at the right moment as well (others did as well). Now only thing I want is all my friends to watch this movie, and support his kind of cinema, it is good and refreshing. Please don't pay 100/200 bucks to movies like Blue, just to watch someone's biceps and someone else's cleavage, watch a movie made by heart and care, and not by slick editing, and oodles of money thrown in. Heart warming, indeed.
