Chhalaang isn’t tear-your-hair-out awful. It’s just ordinary.

Mehta displays a knack of old-fashioned story-telling in this one, which reminds you of Dangal in some of its elements...Girls for the win, yay.

Rated: 2.5/5

Handled carelessly, fluff like this often unravels into nonsense, but Chhalaang feels faintly precious for landing intact near the end of a heavy year.

Rated: 3/5

Even if Chhalaang doesn't establish the camaraderie between them, Rao wears the air of someone who gets through his students and inspires them to win.

The film is a lesson in the technique of crafting a fluid narrative even with a script that has little room for experimentation.

A decent watch but nothing new when compared with previous offerings from this director and what we've seen over the last 2 years in the Hindi film industry.

Awful plot, over the top acting, pathetic screenplay and direction, and embarrassingly weak performances all round - including the acting of Rajkummar Rao and of course, Hansal Mehta's direction. What is this Garbage? In 2020! I've recently been trying to watch some old movies from 1970s and 1980s of Amitabh Bachchan and Vinod Khanna that I had fond memories of, but when I saw then now they turned out to be demonstration of complete lack of the craft of filmmaking. Well, I'm sorry to say, this movie is on par with junk movies like Hera Pheri starring Amitabh Bachchan and Vinod Khanna. Yup, that's how bad it is. You don't really want me to get into the story ... yeah, you don't.
