Bollywood Bubble gave 3 stars to Karan Malhotra directorial venture. A part of the review read, “Ranbir Kapoor starrer Shamshera gives an epic cinematic experience if only I neglect the melodrama and the pace of the film. For me, the film ended in the first half as it was quite predictable what is going to happen in the second half of the film which was a drag.”

Meanwhile, in an exclusive interview with Bollywood Bubble, Ranbir revealed what made him say ‘yes’ to Shamshera.

Ranbir said, “I was not offered a lot of films of this nature and of playing a larger than life hero. And nor was it a conscious decision that at that time in my life I was searching for Shamshera. It just was a gift of God, it came at the right time in my life, in my career. It’s one of the few films that as soon as I heard the narration I said yes. I wanted to work with Karan Malhotra. I wanted to do a film of this nature with a director who understands the genre… who is very good with his tone. Making films is a director’s medium and you have to really partner with the right director to do a certain film.”
