Siby Jeyya of India Herald gave the movie 4 stars out of 5 stars and mentioned “The impact of the film’s visuals is by far its most significant element. The VFX is amazing, and cinematographer Jishnu Bhattacharjee has masterfully recorded the dark and mesmerizing realm of werewolves with the backdrop of the full moon in the midnight sky, zero jungles, and mountains”.
Bollywood Hungama gave the movie 3.5 stars out of 5 stars and mentioned: “Bhediya works due to its novel idea, amazing performances, stunning climax, and VFX”.
Dhaval Roy of The Times of India gave the movie 3.5 stars out of 5 stars and noted: ” Director Amar Kaushik manages both genres expertly in his latest outing and hits a fine balance to produce a movie that’s spine chilling in some examples, rib-tickling in almost all, and exits you with something to consider about.”
Tushar Joshi of India Today gave the movie 3.5 stars out of 5 stars and noted “Performances feel real and Kaushik’s USP of investing comedy and humor at the good moments helps in keeping the narrative entertaining and refreshing”.
Saibal Chatterjee of NDTV gave the movie 3.5 stars out of 5 stars and noted “Bhediya is both satisfying and thought-provoking, is assisted along by lively acting. Varun Dhawan shares the strange role his best shot.
Abhishek Banerjee and Paalin Kabak are amazing as much with their comic humorous as with their dramatic flourishes”.
Devesh Sharma of Filmfare gave the movie 3.5 stars out of 5 stars and mentioned “The film’s creature effects and computer-generated imagery are outstanding. The cinematography and the background score are best as well”.
Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express gave the movie 3 stars out of 5 stars and mentioned: “Varun Dhawan does an outstanding job of aligning with the tone of the movie — the horror is appealing much ‘naam-ke-vaaste’, comedy is what it is curious in and does it well”.
Rohit Bhatnagar of The Free Press Journal gave the movie 3 stars out of 5 stars and noted “Bhediya is a pleasing one-time popcorn entertainment and a worthy distraction from the monotony”.
Sonil Dedhia of News 18 gave the movie 3 stars out of 5 stars and noted”Bhediya has a statement that resonates with present times. The movie has its heart in the proper place but it stutters in its execution and script”. Sukanya Verma of Rediff gave the movie 3 stars out of 5 stars and mentioned “Varun Dhawan ups his entertainer game exponentially in Bhediya”.
In a less positive review, Anna M. M. Vetticad of Firstpost gave it 2.5 stars out of 5 stars and mentioned, “Bhediya is not the first movie in this world to sideline characters from social groups sidelined in reality, even while purportedly being about those residents. All the noble meanings in the world and even Abhishek Banerjee’s comedic intellectual cannot compensate for such mindlessness.”
Himesh Mankad of Pinkvilla gave the movie 3 stars out of 5 stars and noted “Bhediya rides mainly on the power of gags, visual effects, and performances, but earned a more significant disagreement about a hero and villain in the second half”.
Umesh Punwani of Koimoi gave the movie 3 stars out of 5 stars and noted “You’ll reach in for Varun Dhawan, but will stay back for Abhishek Banerjee”.
Rahul Desai from Film Companion reported: “Bhediya is silly, stylish – and surprisingly poignant”.
