Anupama Chopra Film Companion 11/12/2019
There is enough to enjoy here and yet the film doesn't land as it is simplistic and on-the-nose. Go to Full Review Shubhra Gupta The Indian Express 11/12/2019
3.5/5
Bala is an achievement. He's perfected the art of playing people who are not instantly likeable, and he works the characters' kinks to the point where we can see them, and yet sympathise. Go to Full Review Saibal Chatterjee NDTV 07/15/2020
3/5
Bala touches upon sensitive issues but makes its point without turning overtly judgmental about anyone or anything. Go to Full Review Musanna Ahmed Film Inquiry 12/14/2019
Bala is the significantly better film, a simple, fun character study of a twenty-something man learning to live with alopecia in a world with a discriminatory idea of beauty. Go to Full Review Kennith Rosario The Hindu 11/12/2019
