In the latest release, “Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya,” starring Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon, the film’s performance at the box office has seen a notable uptick, crossing the Rs 15 crore mark on its second day. However, despite its commercial success, the film has garnered mixed reviews from critics. Shubhra Gupta, film critic awarded the film 2 stars, labeling it as a ‘mish-mash’ of genres. In her review, she noted Shahid Kapoor’s performance, highlighting his delivery of some of the film’s snappiest lines. Gupta also praised Kapoor’s ability to transcend his hero-status and evoke memories of his standout performances in previous hits like ‘Jab We Met.’ While the film’s box office numbers reflect its appeal to audiences, critics remain divided on its overall execution and storytelling.
