{{/usCountry}}The Hindustan Times review of the film stated, “Kareena is the heartbeat of this film. Roughly 20 minutes in, you forget this is the same person who pulled off a constantly yapping Geet in Jab We Met so well, or a money-minded air hostess in her recent flick Crew. Kareena has the right amount of pain and anger, barring that scene where she screams out of frustration.”
After this film, Kareena will also be seen in Rohit Shetty's cop drama Singham Again, slated to release in cinemas on Diwali this year.
