The biggest strength of the film is Rani Mukerji. She delivers a powerful and intense performance that keeps you hooked throughout. The action sequences are well executed and the dark tone adds to the seriousness of the subject.

However, the film struggles with a predictable storyline and weaker villains compared to earlier parts. The emotional impact is there, but the screenplay feels repetitive at times.

Overall, it is a decent one-time watch mainly for Rani’s performance and a few engaging moments.
