Reviews
"Razzakar" received mixed to positive reviews from critics and audiences alike. On IMDb, the film holds an average rating of around 6.0/10, indicating a moderately favorable reception. Critics praised Siddharth Jadhav's compelling performance and the film's earnest attempt to depict a significant yet often overlooked period in Indian history. The cinematography and production design were also highlighted for effectively capturing the period setting. However, some reviewers pointed out that the pacing of the film was uneven, and the screenplay occasionally lacked subtlety, with certain scenes feeling dramatized or over-simplified. The Times of India noted that while "Razzakar" is a commendable historical drama, it sometimes struggles with balancing the personal and political narratives, resulting in a somewhat disjointed storyline. Overall, the film is appreciated for its ambition and emotional gravitas but falls short of being a flawless historical epic.
