Nowrunning Reviews

They don't call them 'crazy fans' without reason! And who else but Shah Rukh Khan could show how horrendous it is to live a life that fans perceive as perfect. The film is taut and tense. And just when you think things could get predictable, you are shook by its madness.

Rohit Vats (Hindustan Times)

Fan is a Shah Rukh versus Shah Rukh film. The conflict between the two arises from the fact that Aryan Khanna is not the same person he projects to be. Fan is irrational at places, but the adrenaline keeps rushing through its 143-minute duration.As a whole, Fan delivers what it promised in the trailers. Logic may not be its strong point, but Shah Rukh most definitely is; he's back in his elements after a long time. Watch it for him. Read Full Review

Ananya Bhattacharya (India Today)

Fan, after Shah Rukh's films like Dilwale, Happy New Year, Chennai Express and the likes, is a testament to the kind of work we have seen the actor do. After all, not for nothing has this man been able to rule people's hearts for more than two decades. Maneesh Sharma helps dust that Shah Rukh out from under the debris of the last few years. And Khan puts his best foot forward for his fans. Read Full Review

Peter Bradshaw (The Guardian)

It could be that Khan has taken inspiration from fan nightmares such as Scorsese's King of Comedy or Stephen King's Misery. By casting himself in both roles, Khan could have intended a complex satire of celebrity narcissism. Or he could just be, well, guilty of a fair bit of celebrity narcissism himself. Either way, it's outrageous and enjoyably absurd. Read Full Review

Saibal Chatterjee (Ndtv)

Fan is a rather odd admixture of the real and the make-believe. The former works quite well; the latter not so much.Fan is proof that even if SRK isn't 25 years old, he certainly has the kind of enthusiasm that might put many 25-year-old actors to shame. Fan works for the most part because it has the fabulous SRK act as a 'young' star-struck boy.

Namrata Joshi (The Hindu)

Perhaps in the mood and flow of the film which isn't quite as light-hearted and feel-good as SRK starrers are preordained to be. Fan is completely out of SRK's comfort zone. There is hardly any romance, not a single song, little to laugh about. Instead there is plenty of action, chases and unbridled emotions of the very dark and serious kind Read Full Review
