DNA India says Hrithik is the main reason to watch, while the slow screenplay, weak romance and disappointing execution leave the rest of the film feeling dated.

Hindustan Times says Hrithik and the visual scale impress, but the film lacks substance, logic and enough insight into the civilisation it is supposed to portray.

Koimoi says Hrithik is the main positive, but bad CGI, weak editing and an ordinary story make the historical drama a major failure.

BollywoodLife says Hrithik is worth watching, but the film is painfully boring and fails to recreate the Indus Valley period in an interesting way.

Bollywood Hungama says the film looks grand and works in parts, but the lack of engaging drama and a relatable story seriously hurt it.

News18 says the film offers little that feels new. The familiar love story, flat writing and weak characterisation make the ancient setting feel wasted.

Filmibeat says the action and visual scale provide entertainment, but poor historical detail, weak writing and cartoon-like storytelling make it disappointing overall.

The Times of India says the film works better as a fantasy than history. Hrithik, the scale and the stronger second half make it an interesting watch despite its flaws.

India TV News says Hrithik Roshan gives a flawless and committed performance, but the film lacks enough thrill and excitement to make its grand historical setting fully engaging.

India Today says the film is visually ambitious but difficult to take seriously because of its clichéd story, weak writing and strange historical choices.
