Ishwak deserved more depth in his part. Jatin is okay in his brief part. Mita is okay. Swastika is barely passable.”

One of the netizens wrote an elaborate review stating, “At the core of it, Gandhari is a very relevant movie as it’s about missing kids exploited for sex trafficking. The concept is interesting too where a woman (Taapsee Pannu) is out on a mission to find her 6 year old daughter, while also being visually hampered. She is joined by her husband (Ishwak Singh) and a good samaritan, Mita Vashishth. Meanwhile a senior cop, Jatin Sarna, runs his parallel investigation as well.” Speaking about the storyline and over performances, a user shared, “The writing by #KanikaDhillon was really good in the first half, but in the second half, it goes a routine way. Direction by #DevashishMakhija has a good appeal. As I said, Taapsee has delivered a superb performance. #IshwakSingh is reliable, #MitaVashisht delivers strongly, #SwastikaMukherjee hits the ball out of the park with her presence. I wanted more chilling and thrilling sequences of #PrashantNarayanan, #JatinSarna is below average.”
In a nutshell, Taapsee Pannu’s “Gandhari” has been receiving mixed reviews. As the weekend rolls in, it is interesting to keep an eye on Netflix’s most-watched list.
