Khufiya

Dhaval Roy of The Times of India gave 4 stars out of 5 and said "The fictional take on a novel said to be inspired by true events tells an engaging spy story.

Himesh Mankad of Pinkvilla wrote "Khufiya is a well-made espionage, which comes across as an interesting and entertaining film from Vishal Bhardwaj."

Lachmi Deb Roy of Firstpost wrote "Khufiya is an intense combination of suspense and complexity."

Nandini Ramnath of Scroll.in praised Tabu's performance, stating "Even in the silliest of scenes, Tabu is always poised for something better."

Saibal Chatterjee of NDTV gave 3.5 stars out of 5 and wrote "Director Vishal Bhardwaj does not appear to be at full tilt in Khufiya.

Shreya Tinkhede of Times Now rated three out of five stars, saying "Khufiya is a sincere attempt by Vishal Bhardwaj to paint the dark and gruesome world of espionage with meticulous attention to detail."

Simon Abrams of RogerEbert.com rated 3 stars out of 4 and wrote "Khufiya isn't a deconstruction of the spy thriller, but it does blatantly re-orient viewers to what's often missing or downplayed in stories about spies, many of whom are presented as solitary little wheels who work for big organizations that could stop needing them at a moment's notice Bhardwaj and his collaborators show respect for that guiding spirit of professionalism by only suggesting what various characters either aren't saying or aren't ready to admit to themselves."

Sukanya Verma of Rediff.com said "Khufiya has the length of a movie and satisfaction of long form.

Anuj Kumar wrote in The Hindu that "Powered by the poetic charm of his female leads, the writer-composer-director paints a haunting character study of three emotionally conflicted women caught in the crosshairs of espionage."
