By YKA Staff:
After premiering at Cannes, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Randeep Hooda starrer ‘Sarbjit‘ released in theatres across India today. This is Bachchan’s second film in just 6 months, after the oddly green-tinged Jazbaa released in October 2015. ‘Sarbjit‘ is based on the real-life story of Dalbir Kaur, who fought a hard battle for 20 years to free her brother Sarabjit Singh from jail, after he was accused of being a spy by Pakistani authorities.
On Twitter, Sarbjit seems to be the talk of the day. Interestingly, ‘We Love Richa Chadha’ even trended for a few hours, for her supporting role in the film. Many users on Twitter are either excited to watch the film or have already seen it. A host of movie critics have shared their views as well. We’ve curated what the first-day-first-show goers have said, so you can plan your weekend movie outing! (P.S. X-Men: Apocalypse is in theatres too.)
Film critic Anupama Chopra wasn’t too pleased with the ‘disjointed screenplay’.
#Sarbjit is clunky but also genuinely moving. My review: https://t.co/pKEKpQZ9u3

Critic Raja Sen has called it an “irresponsibly sloppy film”.
