Sam Bahadur is getting great reviews from fans and critics alike. Fatima Sana Shaikh and Sanya Malhotra are also part of the film.
In his review of Sam Bahadur for NDTV, Saibal Chatterjee gave it 3.5 stars, He said, “The Sam Bahadur we see on the screen isn't a Bollywoodised version of a hero from the pages of Indian military history, but a man rooted in the real world but endowed with exceptional acumen and courage of conviction. What's in a name? In the case of Sam Manekshaw, as the film about him tells us, there is a whole lot. In the opening sequence, we learn that Sam's parents had christened him Cyrus but were constrained to rename him because a thief named Cyrus had just been nabbed in the neighbourhood.”
