I walked out of this film wiping away tears and feeling invincible. I felt I could wrestle down anything that hit me. How do you put a rating on that?

Within that tight-lipped mask, [Khan] finds a hundred ways to communicate emotion. That's more than you can say for Dangal, a one-trick domestic sports drama that drags on for two hours and 40 minutes.

Let it never be said that if you've seen one inspirational sports movie, you've seen them all.

As far as Hindi cinema is concerned, 2016 will be remembered primarily for Pink and Dangal; not just because these films wowed the audience, but also because no film in recent times has done as much to sensitize the audience about gender equality...

Although in terms of substance the movie has its issues, in terms of impression and presentation, it truly thrives.

Dangal is an emotional and powerful story about determination, sacrifice, and breaking limits. The performances, especially by Aamir Khan and the young actors, feel very real and deeply moving. The film keeps you engaged from start to finish and delivers a strong message about believing in yourself. A truly inspiring movie that stays with you long after it ends.

Dangal Yuddham was a surprisingly enjoyable watch. The film does a great job balancing action, emotion, and drama, keeping me engaged throughout. I liked how the story focused not just on conflict but also on determination, sacrifice, and the strength to keep fighting against the odds. The performances felt sincere, and the action sequences were exciting without overshadowing the emotional moments. Overall, it's an entertaining film with a strong message and plenty of memorable scenes.

At first it feels like a sports film about wrestling, but it slowly turns into something about discipline, sacrifice, and complicated parenting. The father is not just training champions, he’s fighting his own regrets through his daughters. What works is how grounded it stays, every victory feels heavy because it comes with struggle, not luck.
