The Wire (INDIA)

... Mehta and writers Raghav Kakkar and Kashyap Kapoor use the mould of a hostage film as a smokescreen, to meditate on religious dogma and fundamentalist beliefs.

This visual emphasis, a striking departure from popular perception, forms the genesis of Mehta’s recent work; it underlines the film’s preoccupation with uncovering the language of terrorism and not its face.

Rohan Naahar

The Indian Express

Well-intentioned and well-acted, director Hansal Mehta's film uses its characters as pawns, and ultimately sacrifices them at the altar of politics.

Prathyush Parasuraman

Film Companion

Cinematically, its dryness, its distracted wobbling between being dramatic and being subtle, being humorous and being ironic, rings a false note.

Culture Mix

Based on true events, Faraaz is an intense thriller that rises above some of its hostage-movie clichés with credible performances from most of the cast.

gripping movie with dark comedy, shows true Islamic terrorist attack in a realistic way. This shows how Islamic terror has taken deep roots in many countries and certain sympethisers are turning blind eye to these attrocities.
