MarJaavaan poetry slam will give you a headache. Sidharth Malhotra and Riteish Deshmukh’s film sucks the joy out of schlock. Stuck in the 80s, it is the throwback you don’t need.

Jyoti Sharma Bawa - Hindustan Times
In Marjaavaan, which is anything but a film to die for, writer-director Milap Milan Zaveri whips up a stale masala concoction that transports the audience right back to a Bollywood era gone by. The turgid thriller is set in the Mumbai underworld, a fact that is grandly announced via a voiceover at the very outset, but neither the situations nor the locales in which the predictable action unfolds look remotely real.

Saibal Chatterjee - NDTV
Marjaavaan could perhaps be used as a new drinking game, where you raise your glass whenever a melodramatic or a rhyming one-liner is delivered. You will get drunk in the first half-hour itself. Guaranteed.

Better to Watch Ramleela Than This Sidharth Malhotra Film. Blame it on our perception but it seems Sidharth Malhotra needs more time to come out of his decent boy next door image

Rohit Vats - News 18
Nothing can salvage the Marjaavaan mess -- not religious symbols tattooed on Malhotra's knuckles, the two-and-a-half hours of hysterically hamming people, the boisterous background score, the stale imagination, the burly giants, the phony rain, the cheap blood, the microwave romance, the laboured hostility, the incessant babbling on mohabbat and ibadat, not Arjit Singh yowling in a loop.
