What the critics say
Critics mostly credit the Sicily visuals, Kriti Sanon's performance and Pritam's music, but call the love triangle predictable, poorly written and regressively blaming its women while excusing the hero.

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 29 readings; 16 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.
