Batti Gul Meter Chalu Ratings & Reviews
The Indian Express
Shubhra Gupta
Batti Gul Meter Chalu is a hark-back to a forgotten tradition, which, at its best, gave us story and substance. Batti Gul gives us both, for most part.
Firstpost
Udita Jhunjhunwala
The main feature is a bloated narrative that skirts almost three hours.
Film Companion
Rahul Desai
This is just shabby filmmaking all around. It goes to show that today's producers don't care for the craft either, as long as there's a "message," a digital revolution and a rousing monologue.
The National (UAE)
Kumar Shyam
No one is expecting the artist in Singh to deliver a masterpiece with every creation but the direction is very sloppy by any standard and certainly not expected from the director with some decent experience.
Reuters
Shilpa Jamkhandikar
The story, by writer duo Siddharth-Garima, stretches on forever without saying much. Singh devotes too much time to the friendship between the three characters.

Sukanya Verma
Batti Gul Meter Chalu's final few minutes weepily rave and rant about the injustice meted out at the 'sadharan aadmi.' But the mockery that precedes it akin to watching Shahid Kapoor host a humourless awards show.
NDTV
Saibal Chatterjee
The premise may sound potent on paper, but what unfolds on the screen is precariously low on wattage.
Filmfare
Devesh Sharma
All-in-all, Batti Gul Meter Chalu is a film which has its heart in the right place. Better editing and a shortening of length by twenty minutes would have made the film more impactful.
Hindustan Times
Jyoti Sharma Bawa
Butti Gul Meter Chalu had a lot of promise, but just like the government it targets, it fails to deliver.
The Times of India
Rachit Gupta
BGMC loses power under the load of its heavy-duty screenplay.

Nandini Ramnath
Buried beneath the melodrama, grandstanding and quick-fix approach is the very real issue faced by millions of Indians. Sushil articulates the problem only at the very end.
