Bollywood Hungama critic said: “SARBJIT is a landmark film with great performances and a superbly told narrative. The entertainment quotient is missing which is compensated by the phenomenal manner in which the story is told.”

Amrita Tanna of BizAsia said: “There is a lot crammed into two hours and at some small points, some of the audience’s attention might be lost, but overall ‘Sarbjit’ is an indeed good watch and a must-see. Rai Bachchan and Hooda are true gems to watch sharing screen space and the former has shown that she’s definitely back.”

Kaleem Aftab of the National said: “The film picks up ­momentum as the focus shifts to Kaur’s campaign, but ­becomes heavy-­handed as it attempts to frame Singh’s plight in the context of Indo-Pakistan relations.”

Sreeju Sudhakaran of BollywoodLife.com said: “Sarabjit’s real tale makes for a compelling human drama, and we are glad that the makers chose to highlight his plight with this film. However, if they had reduced the melodrama in the way they narrate his story, the movie could have been more gripping.”

Manjusha Radhakrishnan of Gulf News said: “Sarbjit would have benefitted greatly had it been a no-frills affair rather than making it a mainstream movie filled with commercial elements.”
