The CinePearl Take

Abhishek Kapoor’s direction balances the exhilaration of cricket matches with the quiet tension of personal betrayals, keeping the narrative brisk yet emotionally resonant. Sushant Singh Rajput shines as the idealistic dreamer, delivering a nuanced performance that anchors the film’s emotional core. Rajkummar Rao provides a grounded counterpoint, and the chemistry among the trio feels genuinely lived‑in. While the pacing slows in the political interludes, the film’s thematic depth—about loyalty, loss, and the price of success—remains compelling.
