Azaad Movie Review
Star Cast - Aaman Devgan, Rasha Thadani, Ajay Devgn
Director - Abhishek Kapoor
Rating Score -> 3/5
‘Azaad’ struggles to maintain consistent tension. The film underutilizes the potential of depicting the British officers' brutality, which could have heightened audience investment in Govind’s climactic horse-riding challenge.

Rating Score -> 3.5/5
Azaad is far away from the regular commercial cinema. It cuts through the wave of action thriller quite neatly. Thoroughly engaging and entertaining in its treatment, this Abhishek Kapoor directorial has fewer dull moments.

Azaad is a cinematic experience, which will make you emotional, smile and cheer as an audience.

Azaad is one of the few decent films that have been released recently. It is one of those films that can interest you, but you might not want to spend money on tickets and would rather wait for it to come on streaming platform.

Azaad is a decent cinematic experience that manages to capture the heart and soul of an era. It’s something you can watch one time and go home with a feeling of triumph.

Rating Score -> 2/5
An interesting idea doesn't always translate into an engaging film... Lacks an absorbing script... While the climax is terrific, it arrives too late to salvage the overall experience.

Rating Score -> 3.5/5
The film does have a few shortcomings. The conflict of good vs evil does time, and you're emotionally invested in the film. The movie's first half looks disjointed. The parallel narrative of Vikram Singh often looks forced. Azaad doesn't have great music as well. Barring two songs, the album fails to impress.

Rating Score -> 1/5
Rasha Thadani, Aaman Devgan wasted in moth-balled film. Why are such films still being made in 2025? And is Abhishek Kapoor, who made the terrific ‘Kai Po Che’ and ‘Rock On’, really the director of this mothballed exercise?

Azaad has nothing new to offer except two new actors. Apart from the loose, slow screenplay, the story is riddled with cliches. A film on a horse ought to have had speed.
10. NDTV -
Rating Score -> 1.5/5
The weak and disjointed screenplay stymies the efforts of the two newcomers, Raveena Tandon's daughter Rasha Thadani and Ajay Devgn's nephew Aaman Devgan, to make an impression.

Rating Score -> 2/5
As for the horse with almost human emotions and a killer kick, he's undoubtedly a star, who deserves a film like Black Beauty.

Rating Score -> 2.5/5
Azaad will not blow your mind away. It is an easily forgettable film, but it won't disappoint you. Probably a nice OTT experience if you are in a mood to watch a sweet-little-slow something.
13. India TV -
Rating Score -> 2.5/5
'Azaad' is weak in the beginning and the film takes a long time to establish the newcomers in the story. Due to the weak script and lack of a romantic angle, it is not very successful in attracting the audience. Still, the film can be given a chance for strong acting.

On the whole, Azaad is a flop show with almost nothing to excite the public.
