This is an interesting chapter of history to revisit, because the winners were not the real heroes of the Third Battle of Panipat. Go to Full Review
Namrata Joshi The Hindu 12/13/2019
Gowariker may have taken liberties with history, but doesn't play around with the form. He sticks to the tried and tested, the long and langourous and old-fashioned. However, he is unable to achieve the epic sweep... Go to Full Review

The screenplay is essentially a check-list of events that are being ticked off... Go to Full Review

Falsification isn't the film's worst aberration... Panipat is anything but engaging. Go to Full Review

1.5/5
Panipat: The Great Betrayal as it's called - feels like one too without the requisite emotional playoff or enough visually arresting scenes. In the end, it's all reduced to a boring history lecture that lasts almost 3 hours. Go to Full Review
Musanna Ahmed Film Inquiry 01/08/2020
What could've been a worthy historical epic with all the visual ingredients and an interesting historical foundation in place is ultimately just a tired expression of Bollywood nationalism, with bad acting to boot. Go to Full Review

Robert R 12/30/2019 It was interesting and watchable. See more Marvin 12/14/2019 I enjoy Bollywood movies. And this one was long at two hours and 51 minutes. It's a war story and it had two dance routines. It's part of what I love about these movies. The end scene is gory with lots of deaths on the battlefield. All in all I did enjoy it. See more Shelah B 12/11/2019 It kept my attention the whole movie. Very moving ending. The actors did a great job. I loved the dances as well. See more Mandy 12/10/2019 Entertaining and dramay See more Rajni Batra B 12/09/2019 Nice story about history of India. See more Faiz 12/07/2019 One of the best movie See more Read all reviews
