Namrata Joshi

National Herald (India)

Mounted like an amateurish school play, Dasvi is like a vast stretch of dullness, wearying and annoying by turn.

Shubhra Gupta

The Indian Express

Abhishek Bachchan is a perfect match for the kind of character he is playing. It’s a pity that the material never quite knows whether it is an exaggerated parody or a sharp comedy with realistic overtones.

Rated: 2.5/5

Pramit Chatterjee

Digital Mafia Talkies

If you are completely unaware of India’s political climate or possess the ability to view the movie’s fictionalization of real-life politics in isolation, then there’s a good chance that you will enjoy it.

Rated: 1/5

Barbara Shulgasser

Common Sense Media

Cheerful and implausible, Dasvi presents a welcoming Indian prison system filled with guards and superintendents who are understanding, self-effacing, and fair rather than menacing and violent.

Rated: 2/5

Roger Moore

Movie Nation

Its not classic "Bollywood" and never more than...pleasant, but kind of bland, jaunty but meandering, lacking the pace and the edge to set itself apart from the rest.

Rated: 2/4

Poulomi Das

News9 Live (India)

Is this a film about the circus of Indian politics or is it about the hold of illiteracy in the country? Dasvi doesn't really deliver on either count, crafting an overcooked story that jumps from one distraction to another.

Rated: 1.5/5
