Shubhra Gupta The Indian Express That early scene, a stunning chiaroscuro, with the camera pulling back as the newbie Gangubai learns to call out to potential punters, is a classic. Dec 22, 2022 Full Review Siddhant Adlakha New York Magazine/Vulture Rather than trying to eke out a new place for sex workers in conservative society, it makes the convincing case that they are already a vital fixture. Dec 20, 2022 Full Review Namrata Joshi National Herald (India) Alia Bhatt nails it with elan in this grand melodramatic spectacle by Bhansali. Mar 14, 2022 Full Review Stephanie Bunbury Deadline Hollywood Daily Every minute of those two and a half hours is ravishingly entertaining. The songs, written by the director, bounce along energetically; the camera does much the same thing, zooming and zig-zagging in a powerhouse effort to maintain a rollercoaster pace. Sep 19, 2023 Full Review Santanu Das Hindustan Times The standout moment - where she dances with a streak of reckless abandon in the song Dholida, still gives goosebumps. Jan 31, 2023 Full Review Jason Flatt But Why Tho? A Geek Community Gangubai Kathiawadi may be exaggerated and dramatized, but it is an epic and moving history of a woman and women that would otherwise be ignored and forgotten. Rated: 9/10 Jan 4, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/25/22 Full Review Enay N 10/10 once again Sanjay Leela Never disappoints:) Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/22/22 Full Review Shweta It changes your perspective towards prostitute and attitude/mindset towards sex workers who have been denied the basic right to be treated as humans. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/27/22 Full Review Mochi Honestly the movie was extremely interesting, I enjoyed everything it of it. I highly recommend.
