What the critics say
Critics largely agree the true story of an unsung freedom fighter is compelling and the supporting cast (especially Emraan Hashmi and Sparsh Srivastav) shines, but Sara Ali Khan's uneven performance and flat, corny writing keep it from landing its full impact.

How this number was made. We read every review and derive a 0–100 reading from each — including where the critic printed a number, which stays first on its row, because it’s theirs. The Filmi Score is the mean of 9 readings; 4 of those rows also carry the critic’s own rating, shown beside ours. Rubric v2.1, computed 26 Oct 2026. Any critic can ask us to remove a derived reading.
