Namrata Joshi National Herald (India) 10/17/2022
Not a signature Anurag Kashyap film, but enjoyable with Taapsee's amazing performance. Go to Full Review
Shubhra Gupta The Indian Express 08/19/2022
1.5/5
The Taapsee Pannu-starrer comes off too choppy and muddled. It’s hard to keep track of the many things happening in the time zones the movie slips in and out of. Go to Full Review
Carla Hay Culture Mix 08/27/2022
The last 15 minutes of Dobaaraa try to rush in a lot of convenient solutions, but this sci-fi thriller (a remake of the 2018 Spanish film Mirage) is riveting from beginning to end. Some parts of the movie are predictable, while others are not. Go to Full Review
Deepa Gahlot Scroll.in 08/24/2022
The pace is brisk enough to guard against nit-picking. Kashyap’s version is actually more interesting and emotionally engaging than Mirage. Go to Full Review
Poulomi Das News9 Live (India) 08/20/2022
2.5/5
It's as generic and similar as most mid-tier Netflix offerings, which over time turn into nameless, faceless, entities. If anything, Dobaaraa feels like an exercise in Kashyap dumbing himself down. Go to Full Review
Anna M.M. Vetticad Firstpost 08/19/2022
2.5/5
Dobaaraa is moderately thrilling and in parts genuinely frightening, but lacks the rootedness and heft that has come to be associated with Anurag-ness. Go to Full Review

Aashish T 10/30/2024 Original Movie bhi Hindi me Netflix pr available hai, to ise kyu dekhna bhai. I haven't seen this movie. For everyone, why waste your time in this movie when you can watch the original one "Mirage". See more Anjum K 12/24/2023 It was a good leisure watch with a good tight script having a capacity to delight the brain. See more Pankaj G 11/06/2022 It's really a different movie and I am very sure it going to be very difficult for a person to digest the concept. Not question that this movie is pictured well but acting by everyone is best. Again this movie is not for everyone. There were lots of cosmetic flaws like switch boards but concept on point. If you are not traditional hindi movie person and looking for something different it's a good watch. See more Amit N 10/20/2022 Very well made film. Gripping and great acting by Taapsee. I haven't seen the original Spanish version, but i thoroughly enjoyed this film. See more Ashok R 10/15/2022 I am a fan of both Anurag and Tapsee a like and they both disappoint ,the movies is a huge disservice to the original in every aspect from terrible acting, terrible screenplay and very poor direction. The creative freedom taken to slightly make it more "different" from the original is step taken in all the wrong directions and it seems like the creators turnoff their brains while watching the original as they have changed key scenes which elevated the original movie, sat a clear context and contributed to the storytelling. Unfortunately it's all been cut or changed and thrown in to the trashcan for some reason making this movie stale. I would suggest watch the original movie "Mirage" from 2018. See more Anupama C 09/02/2022 Even within its own logic, Dobaaraa is a muddle and sadly, it's also middling. See more Read all reviews
