Reception

Critical reception

The film received mixed reviews from critics. A reviewer from Divya Marathi gave the film a rating of 3/5 and wrote "The film is well done as the technical skills have a good grip on the screenplay. Every scene from the first frame to the last is very well constructed". [3] A reviewer from The Times of India gave the film a rating of 2.5/5 and wrote "Keeping the narrative crisp and giving more focus on the history bit would have done wonders for this film. Unfortunately, what we get is a half-baked cake that refuses to finish". [4] A reviewer of Zee News gave the film 1.5 stars out of 5 and wrote "In some places, the scenes are inserted at the wrong time... Although the movie starts well, slowly the movie starts to feel boring". [5] Ganesh Matkari of Pune Mirror wrote "The actors in Razakar somehow manage this over a very long stretch of time. I only wish they had something to show for their patience and hard work". [6] Jaydeep Pathak of Maharashtra Times gave the film 1.5 stars out of 5 and says "We should read and study this bloody history. Why should you waste your precious time by watching movies in such category only with such efforts?". [7]
