The recently released film 'Udta Teer,' featuring Ayushmann Khurrana in the role of a 'dhurandhar' (expert) spy, has struggled to find a consistent tone with critics. While the film attempts to blend the high-stakes world of espionage with entertainment, reviews suggest that the execution falls short of its ambitions.

According to India Today, the film suffers from a disjointed narrative that undermines its premise. The outlet describes the experience as a 'comedy of errors,' implying that the plot points fail to align in a way that creates a believable or engaging spy caper. The film’s attempt to portray Khurrana as a master operative is reportedly hampered by a script that lacks the necessary tension and structural integrity expected of the genre.

While the film aims to capitalize on the popularity of spy thrillers in Indian cinema, the consensus from early reviews indicates that 'Udta Teer' struggles to balance its comedic elements with its espionage plot. There is little disagreement among initial reports that the film’s pacing and writing are its primary weaknesses, though the specific impact of Khurrana’s performance remains a point of subjective interpretation among different reviewers.
