What the critics say

Critics praise Akshay Kumar's comic timing, emotional scenes and sister chemistry in this feel-good family film, but many call its dowry-message plot outdated and the climax rushed.

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 7 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.
