Rating Score -> 3.5/5

While the narrative does have its flaws, 'Super 30' is a human drama and the story of a teacher who triumphs over the many challenges that life throws at him, to set an example for the world to see. Just for that it’s worth a watch.

Rating Score -> 3/5

At the end, 'Super 30' makes you smile, it will also break your heart, it will make your spirit soar, and if you have no math inclinations, it will inspire you and make you appreciate its beauty, its usefulness and contribution to the world. And it also reminds us that without films so many inspiring stories of unsung heroes would go unnoticed.

Rating Score -> 3/5

While the film doesn’t encumber you with a nuanced performance from its lead star, ‘Super 30’ scores high when it comes to a one-time watch about the deep divide between the haves and the have-nots.

Rating Score -> 3.5/5

Hrithik imbibes the spirit of Anand Kumar and you can feel him possess the mad passion required to pull off such a feat. The movie is inspiring on many levels and will be remembered for a long time to come. Surely, if I ever feel like there is no hope left in life, I’ll come to this movie for comfort and reassurance. It’s a lovely tale that drives us to never give up and dream on regardless.

While there may be flaws in the true depiction of Anand Kumar's story, Super 30 is worth a watch for Hrithik's solid performance and the take on the state of education in the country.

Rating Score -> 4/5

When we talk of Super 30, let’s be real, we are not expecting something huge. There is going to be no action, no dance and song sequence breaking just in between and this is a zone that Hrithik is not best known for! Yes, this has to be one of the most challenging roles for Hrithik Roshan because he has no comfort zone to fall back on. Inspired by the life of Anand Kumar, it is about an ordinary man who has dared to achieve something extraordinary.

Rating Score -> 3/5

And I guess attempting a 3 Idiots (2009) type approach would've been hard to resist. Look at the numbers the Raju Hirani blockbuster managed to bring into theatres; even change lives, I reckon. Wish Super 30 similar luck with drawing in masses, and leaving them with a simmering thought, of course. The filmmakers have tried really hard towards it. It shows!

8. Mumbai Mirror -

Rating Score -> 3/5

This film seems like a hark back to the 80s because it reprises the socialist time in Hindi cinema when the hero was invariably one with modest means whom life hadn’t presented many opportunities. Even the privileged were portrayed with decided cynicism, almost implicitly implying that they had amassed their excessive wealth through notorious means. The dialogue that is punched along with crucial turns in the film — “Raja ka beta Raja nahin banega” — also seems a bit dated, especially in times of excessive quotas in every sphere. But even if you aren’t one for nostalgia, this one delivers as a one-time watch.

Rating Score -> 3.5/5

As Hrithik Roshan returns to the silver screen after a period of two years, one can say that with his impactful performance, he has done every bit of justice to the film! Although in various scenes, the tone is too melodramatic, Roshan still delivers aptly and acts as a saving grace. Mrunal Thakur too holds her space, given her limited screen time. The surprise is Pankaj Tripathi, who one can define as the show stealer! His role as the Education Minister lights up the screen every time he is present and his dialogue delivery is sure to leave you chuckling.

Rating Score -> 4.5/5

Super 30 is inspirational, aspirational and a must watch for the young and the old, poor and rich, for all teachers/ parents and students, in fact, there cannot be a better tribute than Super 30 for the Guru Purnima Day. I rate Super 30 with 4.5 stars out of which 1 star is exclusively for Hrithik Roshan.

12. Rajeev Masand / News 18 -

Rating Score -> 2.5/5

The film, not surprisingly, rests on the shoulders of its leading man, and Hrithik Roshan brings the earnestness he’s known for. The Bihari accent is wobbly, the skin tone is distracting, and the film frequently gives Anand Kumar a misguided superhero-like treatment. Hrithik does the best he can with the part. It’s the scenes in which he’s meant to tug at your heartstrings that he pulls off most memorably.

Rating Score -> N/A

On the whole, Super 30 is a super hit film, no questions asked. It will reach the Rs. 100-crore mark pretty fast and it has bright chances of touching the Rs. 150-crore mark and even joining the Rs. 200-crore club. It will do the best business in multiplexes and also in good single-screen cinemas of cities. Collections are bound to pick up as the positive word of mouth gains momentum.

14. Raja Sen / Hindustan Times -

Rating Score -> 2/5

When you exaggerate the extraordinary, it looks ordinary. Mathematics whiz and educator Anand Kumar has led a remarkable life, coaching hundreds of underprivileged children past the rigours of the Indian Institute of Technology entrance exams. His story deserves attention, but director Vikas Bahl confoundingly embellishes it into typical filmi fare in Super 30. For some reason, Kumar’s actual triumph wasn’t enough — therefore the filmmakers added clichéd adversity. The odds may have challenged Kumar, but the Hrithik Roshan version features armed hitmen, evil politicians and moustached villains.
