“Some of my young cousins are waiting impatiently to watch the film. And believe me, although I am a grown up now, I am worse than a kid when it comes to Harry Potter. I will definitely be the first to watch this film. And I will go on to watch it many times, come what may.”

Kunal Ganjawalla, playback singer

“I enjoyed all Harry Potter movies. “Harry potter and the Philosopher's Stone” started with innocence but I would rate the ‘Half Blood Prince' as the best since it had complex emotions. The most delicate part was Dumbledore's death. With ‘Deathly Hallows', since its going to be like a treasure hunt; I am expecting a lot of mystery and action.”

Swini Khare, actor (“Cheeni Kum”)

“Oh, I like magic... and Daniel Radcliffe is great! I like watching him and hope the movie does well. I will surely watch the film.”

Hazel, actor

“I am definitely looking forward to the movie. I have seen the earlier ones, so my expectations are even higher. Also the actors have all grown up now, so I am sure it's gone be different this time.”

Chinmayi, playback singer

“Usually people who read books that are made into movies swear by the book. But the reverse works for me only where Harry Potter is concerned. To this day I haven't read more than five pages. But I have watched all the films. I am looking forward to a spellbinding experience.”

Paloma, actor/ VJ

“As the story progresses, the characters are also maturing… so I'm looking forward to the more adult versions of the kids we started out with. Not to mention the amazing visual effects.”

Abbas, actor

“I'm expecting something out of this world. Today, the movies that are coming out are all extremely tech savvy. I look forward to a lot more graphics and special effects in this one”

As told to Nivedita N., Archana Subramanian and Neha Antani and Lipika Varma.
