Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani opened to mixed reviews. Film critic Saibal Chatterjee gave the movie 2 stars out of 5 and wrote for NDTV, “The screenplay is erratic – it goes back and forth between taking its eyes off the ball and hitting it out of the park, with the ratio tilted markedly towards the former – but the performances are robust enough to help the film paper over its creases.”

Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani stars Ranveer Singh, Alia Bhatt, Dharmendra, Shabana Azmi, Jaya Bachchan, Churni Ganguly, Tota Roy Chowdhury. With this movie, Karan Johar returned to the seat of director after seven years. His last directorial was Ae Dil Hai Mushkil.
