What the critics say
Audience Score · not yet · appears once three readers have written a review
Critics are nearly unanimous that Kangana Ranaut's dual performance carries the film, calling the comedy sharp and the small-town setting authentic, though many flag a second half that turns contrived, preachy or loses steam toward a conformist climax.

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 14 readings; 9 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.
