What the critics say

Critics mostly praise Hrithik Roshan and Saif Ali Khan's performances, chemistry, and the Lucknow-set mass-entertainer craft, but many call it a near scene-for-scene Tamil remake with pacing drags, a stretched runtime, and an underused Radhika Apte.

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 20 readings; 11 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.
