What the critics say
Audience Score · not yet · appears once three readers have written a review
Critics mostly praise Sunny Deol's commanding presence, Diljit Dosanjh and the music in this emotional war tribute, but many fault weak VFX, an overstretched runtime and thinly written Pakistani characters.

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 20 readings; 14 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.
