Senior critic Komal Nahta calls the 'Bawaal' director a 'genius'. He wrote: "After 'Dangal', no proof of Nitesh Tiwari's extraordinary genius and terrific commercial sense would ever be required, but his 'Bawaal' comes as yet another wonderfully written and made film which will stay with you for long after you've watched it on Amazon Prime. Kudos to him, his team, Varun Dhawan, Janhvi Kapoor, Manoj Pahwa. Well done, Sajid (Nadiadwala), it requires courage to release such a big film directly on OTT. @Varun_dvn @niteshtiwari22"
