Archika Khurana of The Times of India rated 3/5 and wrote “Jaat delivers exactly what it promises: a nostalgia-fueled action drama powered by its male leads and dialogue-heavy theatrics. But for all its sound and fury, it lacks the courage to push beyond its comfort zone. It’s a decent one-time watch for fans of old-school Deol-led actioners, but for anyone seeking innovation or depth, Jaat may feel like a missed opportunity wrapped in a thunderous punch.”[38] Rishabh Suri of Hindustan Times rated the film 3/5 and wrote, “Overall, Jaat reinforces why the big-screen experience remains unmatched. Some films just feel better in a dark theatre with surround sound. It also proves that strong entertainment value can help smooth over narrative bumps. This one’s a solid time at the movies.”[39] Lachmi Deb Roy of Firstpost rated the film 3/5 stars and wrote “Jaat is a perfect theatre worthy movie and unapologetically brash. Most of the time while watching the film, you can feel the north south conflict which is just too harsh. An absolutely massy film which is good for a one-time watch. The emotions are high and so are the actions, so what are you waiting for, just head to the nearest cinema halls.”[40]
Aishwarya Vasudevan of OTTPlay gave 1.5/5 stars and wrote “Jaat is a violent Ramayana retelling where “sorry” becomes a running gag. Despite strong performances, the film’s excesses leave viewers craving an apology instead.”[41] Nandini Ramnath of Scroll.in criticized storyline and wrote “The film is nasty, brutish and long. The 153-minute Jaat is most alert and alive in its elaborately choreographed action set pieces, in which gravity, restraint and logic are skillfully slaughtered as surely as Ranatunga’s men.”[42]
