This was not expected from Mr. Ashutosh Gowarikar to distort the historical facts. Why is that so problematic to show the correct history? Why trying to give false narratives?

Ashutosh lost his mind when he hired arjun kapoor and housefull sanon for these characters, I don't understand how he who made lagaan and swades can screw it with caste so badly.

Arjun Kapoor a very poor choice for this role on other hand sanjay Dutt was a good choice but director didn't make most from his character. Throughout fight Abdali force were being killed but at the end suddenly they won the battle. Direction and effects were not even upto the mark.

An Arjun Kapoor film that doesn't make you puke. Sounds like a rarity. Happens to be one.

The story is engaging but takes too long to get to the point. Comparison with _Bajirao Mastani_ is inevitable and this falls short on the entertainment front. However, the historical import of the tale kept me hooked for its longer than desired length of 160 odd minutes.

This might have done well at the box office if some other actor had been top billed. However, the fate was sealed as soon as Mr Kapoor was cast.

Kriti Sanon does justice to the limited screen time that she gets. Her expressive face effectively communicates the myriad emotions that her character feels and I ended up empathizing the most with her.

Sanju Baba is on a charas trip, as always, and barely bat an eyelid while maiming thousands. His expressionless might leave a stone ashamed.

Overall, it is slow to get into the groove but is consistently engaging when it gets there. Left me feeling infuriated about the betrayals that weakened India, three centuries ago.

I'm surprised at the huge number of 1 star ratings. This movie definitely does not deserve that. It is a much more logically presented movie than the 6.5 rated useless Manikarnika. The movie doesn't have the entertaining kick that Bajirao Mastani had. It does feel more like a dramatised documentary.and is a bit slow. The acting is not as good as Bajirao Mastani either. But it is better than most of the recent historic movies and deserves better ratings.
