The film feels like it’s stuck in a loop

The Hindu

Lazily scripted film that leaves you bored and searching for the nearest exit

The execution lets down the premise, and the film remains one of those that could have been edgier and funnier

Ghanchakkar is all very well as it flags off, but it's mostly downhill after it hits its high point in the first fifteen minutes

So despite the delicious nuances, Ghanchakkar builds up and builds up and builds up magnificently before collapsing in a bloody silly heap.

Ghanchakkar keeps going round and round and beats around the bush for its major runtime

Times of India

A deadpan and occasionally dead caper

Mint

In a bid to make a comedy on memory loss, the filmmaker himself forgets his script. A disappointing fare

The pace is slow and when the situations and jokes start getting repetitive, you want to pull your hair. There is an unusual climax to look forward to

Ghanchakkar has splendid performances by its principal cast, but the bland and tedious narrative plays spoilsport
