#SamratPrithviraj 1st half:
Technically very sound: production design, costumes & VFX are exceptional: gladiator sequence ?
2 hours 13 minute for a period epic might be a drawback: in a rush to move on
This film & its scale deserved #AkshayKumar to face off with a big star

#SamratPrithviraj : Till Interval:- Honestly saying editor has done an excellent job. Not a single moment I got to check my mobile or yawn. Expectations is now too high for the 2nd part after the interval. As a SRK fan I was not expecting this film would that much good.

So basically after watching this movie I can say that @akshaykumar teaches @RanveerOfficial how to do King roles which are not over the top and do not require overacting at all
Bhansali should learn from Chandraprakash ji
Anyways MASTERPIECE film#SamratPrithviraj ?????— IRON MAN (@IronMan1284) June 3, 2022

Prithviraj has blockbuster written all over it…. The thing which works for the film is that it peaks at the right time when needed….. #SamratPrithviraj

I had watched Jodha Akbar, Bajirao Mastani, Bahubali series, tanhaji, Even Ashoka too
but #SamratPrithviraj is totally different from them
what a movie
we can't say it movie
it's our history
Akshay Kumar lived the character ???
He made me know who was Samrat Prithivi ?? pic.twitter.com/8XZKD4VBvi— Heart Broker (@heartbroker288) June 3, 2022
People who’re mercilessly trolling #AkshayKumar should be ashamed of themselves. Especially Hindus. No matter if you’re a Khan fan. Here a film is made that’s so significant for Hindus & you’re trolling it forcibly. Just go & watch #SamratPrithviraj. You’ll realise your mistake.
