Opinions: (generally tweets)

Ankur Pathak [HuffPost] : "Maan gaye babua, maan gaye, Khan saahb #zero"
Salil Acharya [Content Creator] - "Some performances being joy to every one in the hall #srk as #BauuaSingh is just that ... #AnushkaSharma keeps u spellbound and #KatrinaKaif in a fabulous avatar... #zero should wim audiences over handsomely ... mera toh #dil jeet liya"
Tushar Joshi [Editor in chief Bollywoodlife] - It takes a lot of heart and vision to make a film like #Zero⁠ ⁠ Credit goes to @aanandlrai for attempting to narrate something different. @iamsrk puts every bit of his heart and soul into @bauuasingh making him his own.
Sumit Kadel [BO Enthusiast] - #Zero is a MAMMOTH LET DOWN. Ist half is decent with good doze of emotions & laughter but second half is miserable, extremely bad writing & screenplay with absolutely no logic, soul & emotional connect. AlR worst film till date. You can watch it for SRK Anushka Kat act
Rohit Jaiswal [BO Enthusiast] - #Zero is another star studded let down ths year Weak story, lacklustre screenplay and sloppy direction turned it into a dud 1st Half GOOD 2nd HALF TERRIBLE #SRK alone cannot carry it to the zenith of being a blockbuster BAD PHASE of #ShahRukhKhan career CONTINUES 1*/5
Taran Adarsh [Critic, BO Analyst] - FIASCO Rating: ⭐️ ½ Expected so much from this collaboration [SRK and director Aanand L Rai]… Sadly, the flawed writing - especially the second hour - takes the film downhill... EPIC DISAPPOINTMENT... #ZeroReview
Komal Nahata - On the whole, Zero is too fantastical and hence very difficult for the audience to digest. It’s a soulless love story which doesn’t touch the heart and will, therefore, face rejection at the box-office after the initial euphoria dies down.

Zero handsomely overtakes Thugs of Hindostan in being the biggest let down of 2018. There is not a chance one can empathize with this colossal drag.
One star!

Zero is a big disappointment! It has so many strong elements - a super star cast, an amazing director. Wish it had a plot!! Sorry SRK fans, I really wanted to like this film. But alas! Better next time??

Priya Adivarekar

@priyaadivarekar

Zero One wishes the second half could be a bit tight, especially the last 15-20 minutes of film. The first half gets an upper hand, as the characters establish their respective BGs and we are introduced to their world. It has a fine mix of romance, humour, drama, and emotions.

Just wanna say, there are people Sharing many negative reviews, which is in their rights but if you check reviews of 3 biggest hits within last 6 months, TZH, Padmavat & Sanju, well they also didn't exactly got glowing reviews from same sites, maybe little higher or lower than Zero but didn't got reviews comparable to how those 3 trended, so let's see, critics are critics, it's the audience who needs to love the movie, rest will be taken care of.
