Shubhra Gupta The Indian Express 04/12/2019
0/5
The entire film is a series of eye-roll moments, pockmarked by dialogue that's unintentionally hilarious. We don't really have to wait for the big reveal to see the purpose of the film. Go to Full Review Jyoti Sharma Bawa Hindustan Times 04/12/2019
1/5
Political propaganda is not the worst of its sins, alas. A communal speech by Pankaj Tripathi's character is painful to watch; he warns of a certain community poisoning the entire country and attacking India with its army. Go to Full Review Rahul Desai Film Companion 04/12/2019
1/5
The problem here isn't the director's leaning or his point-of-view. It's the way he chooses to camouflage it - that is, the way he chooses to quasi-intellectualize his storytelling skills in order to hide his rather simplistic sense of reasoning. Go to Full Review Devesh Sharma Filmfare 04/12/2019
2.5/5
The acting, thanks to the melodramatic nature of the film, is loud and over the top, the dialogue sound bombastic at times. Go to Full Review Kennith Rosario The Hindu 04/12/2019
With no conviction and utter confusion, the film is evidently more drama than reality. Go to Full Review Nandini Ramnath Scroll.in 04/12/2019
The rigour that was needed to prove Agnihotri's thesis is missing, and the biliousness of his selective targeting robs The Tashkent Files of its attempt to being an effective conspiracy thriller. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
