Starting from India Today, which came up with an interesting comment, as it calls the film An Imperfect Game, which fails to create an impact despite having an interesting story on paper.
It also states “ Rajkummar Rao-Janhvi Kapoor”s film is an imperfect game. Director Sharan Sharma”s “Mr. and Mrs. Mahi”, starring Rajkummar Rao and Janhvi Kapoor, is a romantic sports drama. The film fails to create an impact despite having an interesting story on paper.”
India Express has called it Half-baked with its 2.5 ratings stating “Despite a rousing and romantic plot and some decent performances, Sharan Sharma”s drama feels half-hearted and half-baked, leaving you unsatisfied”.
The reviews also mentioned “The film struggles as it tries to please everyone. Janhvi Kapoor-Rajkummar Rao”s film gives us a rom-com nestled in India’s favorite sports, which in turn is nestled in the tropes of the family entertainer movie”.
Hindustan Times has made its point that the movie missed the shot, which also added “ Mr and Mrs Mahi is a one-time watch for its earnest performances, but the film is devoid of a superlative script or wow moments. It”s an ambitious sports film that tries to make a point, but sadly misses the shot.”
The New Indian Express has quoted its review as “Mr. & Mrs. Mahi, at most, is a shake-up to the tired genre of sports films in Hindi cinema. It is not exactly a patriotic story or a feminist tale. What it’s trying to tell is that fame is fickle but passion stays”
