Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/15/23 Full Review Sahil A Captures a very honest snapshot of the Indian media and it's derelict state of affairs in these polarised times. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/11/23 Full Review Vikas R I think must watch movie if you are Indian because it tells everything about the dirty game of Indian godi media. So 5 hearts 💕💕💕💕💕 from me to ravish kumar, and all the brave journalist who are still fighting for our rights Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/11/23 Full Review vEEr k Fantastically superb Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/10/23 Full Review Greg P Power is an influential tool, but in the wrong hands it can cause damage and destruction. This exactly what Ravish, his family and numerous honest journalists are currently experiencing in India. This movie is a desperate call to mainstream Indian Media and it's citizens to wakeup and see the reality before it's too late. Everyone who is connected to India in some way must watch this movie.

      Robert Daniels RogerEbert.com “While We Watched” is an urgent interrogation of the state of journalism today. And yet, while important, it’s unclear what this has to say that hasn’t already been said. Rated: 2.5/4 Jul 21, 2023 Full Review Devika Girish New York Times Kumar’s humility and eloquence ensure that the film never slips into hagiography — instead, it lingers as a lament and a battle cry. Jul 20, 2023 Full Review Wendy Ide Observer (UK) This is tense, essential film-making that argues for the importance of serious, balanced journalism in today’s world of factional infotainment, while also showing the cost to those who stand against the tide. Rated: 4/5 Jul 16, 2023 Full Review Dennis Harvey 48 Hills An engrossing portrait of high-profile broadcast news anchor-reporter... Oct 25, 2023 Full Review Fedor Tot WeLoveCinema Electric account of what it means to be in the eye of a raging storm Rated: 3/5 Sep 20, 2023 Full Review Rohan Naahar The Indian Express While We Watched, Vinay Shukla's profile of Ravish Kumar (and a country in crisis) works as a dystopian thriller, a character study about loneliness, and also a newsroom drama. But more than anything else, it's the best war movie of the year. Sep 14, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews
