Talking of ‘Badla’, our film critic Sameer Jha in his movie review wrote, “Even though ‘Badla’ is nowhere in the league of ‘Andhadhun’ as a thriller, it is still an engaging film that has plenty of twists and turns to keep you on the edge of your seats. With stellar cinematography, riveting performances and a gripping background score, the movie wins on all counts. So much so that I could hear a man sitting behind me clap passionately every time Sujoy Ghosh deftly executed a smart twist.”
