With Kabir Singh releasing in the Middle East a day ahead of India, many have already started tweeting their reactions to the Hindi remake of the Telugu blockbuster Arjun Reddy. From comparisons of the two protagonists — Vijay Deverakonda and Shahid Kapoor — to their opinion on Kiara Advani ’s performance, Kabir Singh has received good early reception from audiences.
Helmed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga (who also directed Arjun Reddy), the film has garnered considerable praise for its soundtrack.
After watching the film, many consider this to be Shahid’s best in his career after the Sanjay Leela Bhansali period drama Padmaavat, featuring Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh.
Here are some of the best reactions:
Shahid replied to the appreciation with a love emoji.

In #KabirSingh @shahidkapoor is menacing, not likeable. Angry. Visceral. So far the fine line between stylized and glorified is managed well by him & Vanga.

Mind still quaking.#KabirSingh
#KabirSingh review: ⭐⭐⭐⭐1/2. First of all let us tell you, this is not a normal lovestory where a boy & a girl meets & they fall in love & eventually everything goes smooth. This story is something which Bollywood never witnessed. Stunning 2nd half which reveals heroin's part

#KabirSingh is a must watch movie!!! @shahidkapoor 's best performance so far. Mind blowing.Aur @Advani_Kiara kya baath hai 😍 An absolutely trippy film. The audience is going to go mad. The background score just compliments everything. Superb Direction by Sandeep Reddy Vanga.
