What the critics say

Critics mostly praise Akshay Kumar's performance and Veer Pahariya's debut in this war drama, with strong aerial dogfights, but many flag shaky VFX, weak sound design, sidelined female characters and an uneven, overlong structure.

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 12 readings; 5 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.
