What the critics say

Critics agree Vidyut Jammwal's action work and the hospital-set choreography are the strongest part of Sanak, but most fault the thin, predictable script, dragging second half and underdeveloped emotional core.

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 4 readings; 2 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.
