“Details that might have been interesting to contemporary viewers remain unexplored, especially the prevalence of social reform movements within Hinduism in the nineteenth century.”

“The film is strictly passable: its very specific time and place and lead character is buried under trademark Yashrajification, in which the colour palette, the songs-and-dances, the stereotypical characterisation, the dialogue-heavy confrontation, and everything else comes off generic.”
