Saibal Chatterjee NDTV 07/21/2020
2.5/5
When the actor and the character merge into one, the critic's job becomes utterly pointless. So just go and watch Petta for the Rajinikanth that you missed in his last few releases. Go to Full Review

3.5/5

Petta is always on the move, like its hero, and Subbaraj directs the film with a sure hand. Go to Full Review

2.5/5
Petta looks rushed and even the Karthik Subbaraj flourishes come off like affectations. Go to Full Review
M Suganth The Times of India 01/10/2019
3.5/5
The film gives us the Thalaivar we all love - in loads. And Rajinikanth has fun playing the role, and shows us why he is the Superstar. Go to Full Review

Vignesh R 12/09/2023 That's a wholesome Rajni movie! See more Muizz M 10/23/2023 It was entertaining, but not good in parts See more Sankalp good S 09/12/2023 It's a one of great addition of Mr shivarao career nd one of best with some angles first half is great with college life nd wardanity it's might be great since first half nd second half is bit slow but good it explains inequality difference between religion nd understanding but some lack of morality but overall it's a great entertainer film especially first half again nd everyone gives their best ♥️🎉👌👏😃 See more 10/28/2020 Treat for rajini fans. See more arun k 05/07/2020 Disappointment film, i was expecting more from 2 versatile actors casted, plot was loose. seems stryline nd direction shud hve been better. acting wise it is gud. best thing abt this mvie is BGM ! See more 01/19/2020 Director Karthik Subburaj gets Rajini fans. It is a great homage to the superstar by an ardent fan. In addition to usual Rajinisms his placings of key elements from the superstars earlier movies works nicely to remind people of who Rajini is This is a very critical for Rajini after Ranjit buried his career with Kabali and Kaala. I do think the Trisha portions could have been more and despite great acting vijay sethupathi did not gel well with Nawaz's family (though one could argue not gelling fitted with the plot) Nawaz's acting especially in the bomb blast scene was awesome. The brief romance between Rajini and Simran was enjoyable. See more Read all reviews
