India Today Review: 'Daayra' – Sharp Dialogue, Shallow Editing

India Today has released its review of the courtroom drama 'Daayra', which stars Kareena Kapoor and Prithviraj. The review highlights that the film’s dialogues are incisive and well‑written, capturing the intensity of the legal battle at its core. However, the critic points out that the editing feels shallow, with pacing that does not fully support the narrative’s momentum.

The film attempts to explore themes of justice and morality, but the review notes that the lack of dynamic cuts and tighter narrative structure undermines the impact of the story. While the performances remain solid, the overall experience is diluted by the editing choices.

India Today concludes that 'Daayra' offers a compelling script and strong performances, yet falls short in delivering a polished cinematic experience due to its editing shortcomings.
