Pathetic script bro! Strictly average movie!!" Another user wrote, "This is supposed to be a movie of India’s biggest superstar, but what we actually get is one of the biggest cinematic disappointments." A third user penned,
"Raja Saab: Writing: This is where the movie completely fails. The concept was great, but the story, screenplay, and dialogues were unbearable. Female leads: Why were they even in the movie? Remove them and nothing changes. Songs: Average. This movie had the potential to be Night at the Museum, but instead turned out to be troll-worthy."
