Swetha Ramakrishnan Firstpost Raazi is an engaging, taut thriller but it will be most remembered for being Alia Bhatt's best performance (so far). Oct 10, 2023 Full Review Tom Cassidy Common Sense Media The turmoil that regular student Sehmat goes through after she's plucked from her studies and trained as a spy is what makes the film such a thoughtful reflection on the horrors of war, rather than an action-packed espionage thriller. Rated: 3/5 Dec 14, 2022 Full Review Rohan Naahar The Indian Express At a time when the Hindi film industry insists on portraying enemies from across the border as kohl-eyed barbarians thirsty for Indian blood, Meghna Gulzar's Raazi, released in 2018, feels like a relic from a long-forgotten past. Jan 9, 2022 Full Review Anna M.M. Vetticad Firstpost Raazi is an espionage venture with heart and soul tempering its gritty core. Even as it kept me on the edge of my seat for its entire 140 minutes, it broke my heart. Rated: 4.5/5 Jan 9, 2021 Full Review Poulomi Das Arré Raazi manages to nuance the idea of patriotism, and lace it with a conscience. Mar 11, 2019 Full Review Rahul Desai Film Companion Raazi is an excellent film because of how easily it could have not been one. On another day, this might have well been a jingoistic Neeraj Pandey actioner called Naam Sehmat. Rated: 4/5 Aug 30, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Waniya S Can bollywood for once make movie where muslim characters are NOT pakistani or terrorists. Terrible representation like Bollywood U THAT OBSSESED? Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/13/24 Full Review Parth P Meghna Gulzar's work always hit on mark – 8.5/10 Starting with Alia Bhatt and Vicky Kaushal, lovable chemistry they created showing how back at time arrange marriage look like. Story is down to reality and no over drama is created in this. I know Meghna Gulzar's works and she is capable of handling the story which is on true event. Full movie was carried by Alia Bhatt and she has given her best throughout her career. Amazing job by her. Small or big action whatever she is doing, dialogue delivery, every small detail in her face expression, every crying and fear she got in tense situation had grab hundred percent attention from me to this movie. Vicky Kaushal and Jaideep Ahlawat had created a backbone for Alia Bhatt character. Specially Jaideep Ahlawat. Speaking about story, they created foundation providing some data what was going on that period. The tense shown from starting few minutes and moving on to young girl played by Alia Bhatt with fully innocent yet smart provides us time to settle with flow of screen play. First half is important part because screen play has provide complete data of each main and supporting characters intro, foundation of story and time from us so we connected with film. If we connect in first part, then from next part we understand each moment of screenplay, mainly how hard trauma a young girl is facing and every action she doing on we are understanding it. Ending of movie I felt very hard. Really I appreciate Alia Bhatt for her performance and she has given justice for that young girl character. I love this movie and this movie going on my favorite movie list Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/03/24 Full Review sachin j As usual another bollywood crap to whitewash islamic ideology Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/02/24 Full Review Meydiana R Undoubtedly one of the best patriotic film with a niche humanity touch The film starts with a subtle introduction of 20 years old Sehmat who eventually makes the entire storyline. It is based on a true story and director Meghana Gulzar does an excellent job of portraying the patriotism of Sehmat in the film. The film also depicts the part of humanity in patriotism. Alia and vikcky have prefectly got their character in the film and does a wonderful job! Very thrilling and motivational! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/27/23 Full Review tarek a One of the best war spy thrillers I have ever seen. The tension is sustained from the opening scene to the closing, with not a single dull moment. Alia Bhatt richly deserves the multiple awards she won for this film. It is painful to see her character being torn to shreds, as she commits one unspeakable act after another, all for duty to her country above all. Her depiction of the struggles with a conscience is remarkable. The fact this is based on a true story makes the events all the more plausible and relatable. 1971 was a monumental year for the sub-continent, as that which was one and split to two, further split into three. These periods of history are always cataclysmic, and the stakes are tremendously high. As a spy movie, the events portrayed here are rapid-fire and striking. Spycraft is authentic with little melodrama or hijinks. The production design is exemplary - we are steeped into the 70s, and every frame is on point for the era. Overall one of the best I have seen, laser-focused on the tremendous personal cost paid by those who risk everything for their countries. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member A well written script complemented by a strong performance by Alia Bhatt. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Read all reviews
