Namrata Joshi Outlook Raju Hirani continues with the overly moral tone that defined his previous films. But it does say something of his surefootedness and craft that you still listen to him and enjoy the many lessons he teaches you. Rated: 3/4 May 4, 2015 Full Review Shubhra Gupta The Indian Express 3 Idiots was good in parts, but it didn't blow me away. Rated: 3/5 May 4, 2015 Full Review Anil Sinanan Time Out This quirky well-acted film proves, as the title track says, that generally 'all is well' with commercial Hindi cinema. Rated: 4/5 May 4, 2015 Full Review Sakhi Thirani Common Sense Media However, where 3 Idiots fails is in its blatant obsession over seriously problematic rape jokes that continually punctuate the film. Rated: 3/5 Sep 26, 2023 Full Review Nikhat Kazmi The Times of India Aamir Khan is stupendous as the rule-breaker Rancho. But the rest of the cast doesn't remain in the shadows. Rated: 5/5 May 4, 2015 Full Review Sudhish Kamath The Hindu Take your hankies along, wipe off those tears every now and then and smile. May 4, 2015 Full Review Read all reviews
