Rajeev Masand pointed out the same. He wrote, "What's a little troubling, however, are the excuses made for Dutt's failures and misdeeds. Sure he's alternately portrayed as selfish, insensitive, self-destructive, and entitled at various points in the film, but it's all part of a larger narrative in which Dutt is always the victim." He gave it 3.5 stars.

A 2.5-star review on Hindustan Times said, "Hirani mostly focuses on the events of Dutt's life, beginning with his well-chronicled struggle with drugs. The director's usual humorous style is evident from the first scene, and Ranbir Kapoor is probably his only tool to infuse intensity into Sanju."
