Critic Reviews for Ittefaq

All Critics (10) | Top Critics (2) | Fresh (9) | Rotten (1)

Ittefaq is that rare Bollywood creature: a smart, gripping whodunit which keeps us guessing.

Shubhra Gupta
The Indian Express
The new Ittefaq, despite making a marketing strategy out of a spoiler, just isn't thrilling enough.

Namrata Joshi
The Hindu
It is a thriller that remains watchable without being a consistently pulsating, heart-pounding experience.

July 27, 2020 | Rating: 2.5/5 | Full Review…

Saibal Chatterjee

Ittefaq may not be perfect, but it is clever enough. Bollywood rarely does thrillers well. This one is not brilliant, but it is fun while it lasts.

Anna M.M. Vetticad
Firstpost
The film rarely allows its characters to pose, meander or play for effect - a refreshing change in an era full of screenplays that fall back on style and mood to overcompensate for its loopholes.

Rahul Desai
Film Companion
Ittefaq is a solid modern whodunit. It looks as slick as any Hollywood production. Even with its mistakes, the crime mystery manages to impress with its logical and clinical writing.

Rachit Gupta
Filmfare
You know how investigative officers are used as storytellers in such films. Here, Khanna plays that role with ease, finesse and poise. He binds the story together.

Rohit Vats
Hindustan Times
A 107-minute thriller without distracting songs and subplots that actually works? Yes, Bollywood can.

Director Abhay Chopra seems to have realised what many in Bollywood haven't - when it comes to thrillers and mysteries, it is best to keep it short. Bereft of item songs and irrelevant sub-plots, the film comes out looking good.

If patience is your asset, this unhurried suspense drama can be watched for Akshaye Khanna's crackling screen presence, acting prowess and sublime charm.
