Who could think that stealing blood and selling it for profit would be the stuff that could have you grinning in the dark of the theater? It is. And the characters that have been created seem to be unrepentant and brazen in their greed. If only the exaggerations could be reined in, this would be a wonderfully dark comic film.

Anna M.M. Vetticad (Firstpost)

The film's undoing is what seems to be confusion over the tone it wants to achieve. And so, although large parts of the narrative have a very apt, realistic feel to them, Laal Rang never becomes as gritty as it needed to be because of its tendency to intermittently wander off into long, loud songs supplemented by stylised, slow motion shots.

Shubhra Gupta (Indian Express)

The film is meant to be based on two 'real life' incidents, but it doesn't tell us which. What we get, to begin with, is a scary inside view of the kind of skullduggery.Then it boils down to the usual cat-and-mouse game between a diligent cop and the blood robbers. You also can't get over the feeling of abject waste when a good subject is bled so much that lifelessness results. Read Full Review

Saibal Chatterjee (Ndtv)

Laal Rang spins an unhurried but engaging tale of love, friendship, heartbreak and redemption against the seamy backdrop of Haryana's blood theft racket. Laal Rang is a slow-burning drama about human blood-hounds that takes a while to come into its own, but when it does it has enough meat to last the course. Read Full Review
