The movie not only set the cash register ringing but was also well-received from fans and well as critics. The theaters turned into stadiums and people turned out for movie dressed in blue jerseys.

The performance of the actor Sushant Singh Rajput, who plays Dhoni in the movie, was hugely appreciated. Many rated this as his best performance so far. But a few also complained that it more details could have been infused in the film about his personal life.
