Sarbjit (2016) Movie Review By NDTV
The script seems more intent on giving the heroine a platform to holler and hector her way though than on crafting a balanced narrative that tracks the impact of Sarabjit’s disappearance on the family as a whole. Randeep Hooda is an exceptionally gifted actor and has clearly put in a lot of effort to get into the skin of the character. But he is let down by the creative choices that the writer (Utkarshini Vashishth) and the director make on his behalf.

Sarbjit (2016) Movie Review By Koimoi
Scenes of Sarabjit being tortured in jail form as the best ones in the entire film. They are well captured to make you feel the disgust and pain that an innocent life could go through. Keeping both Indian and Pakistani politics at bay, Kumar’s Sarbjit plays safe to avoid getting into any controversies. Full Review

Sarbjit (2016) Movie Review By GulfNews
Sarbjit feels too contrived and never becomes powerfully evocative.Sarbjit would have benefitted greatly had it been a no-frills affair rather than making it a mainstream movie filled with commercial elements. The good news is that Sarbjit — which deals with the tenuous relationship and long-enduring tensions between India and Pakistan — isn’t reduced to a jingoistic exercise. Rai Bachchan is making a plea to all to be humane, however some of her voice is drowned as the makers are desperate to make it an edible film for the Bollywood movie fans who like a bit of dance and drama.

Sarbjit (2016) Movie Review By Pinkvilla
And yet, only and only for Randeep’s sparkling performance, we suggest you don’t miss Sarbjit. He makes his pain your own with his pitch-perfect rendering. Well, only if good intentions could make good films, Randeep’s efforts wouldn’t be lost in the dance and drama of this humdrum feat. For all the effort he has put into this movie, he definitely deserved better. Full Review

Sarbjit (2016) Movie Review By Hungama
Omung Kumar is obviously passionately involved with the cause of prisoners on both sides of the border and at the end makes an impassioned appeal that politics shouldn’t be played when innocent lives are involved. On the whole, 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. At the box office, it will be appreciated by matured audience. Full Review
