‘Batla House’ received an average review from Bollywood Bubble. Our critic calls it, “An average thriller that fails to keep things moving at a quick nip”. On John Abraham’s performance, he wrote, “John Abraham effortlessly nails the role of a cop. He is convincing and you really feel bad when the entire world is pointing fingers at him.”

For the unversed, ‘Batla House’ is based on the Batla House encounter aka Operation Batla House. It took place against the Indian Mujahideen (IM) terrorists in the Batla House locality in Jamia Nagar, Delhi on September 19, 2008.
