Key opinion
Zero is widely regarded as a significant misfire that fails to ground its ambitious experimental premise in a coherent narrative. While there is isolated praise for certain performances and technical risks, most viewers find the film disjointed, illogical, and emotionally hollow.
| Screenplay | The screenplay is consistently criticized for being fragmented, illogical, and failing to provide a credible foundation for its ambitious sci-fi and drama elements. | |
| Emotion | The film fails to generate a meaningful emotional connection, with critics noting that the disjointed character arcs and lack of sympathy for the protagonists render the story hollow. | |
| Originality | The production takes significant, ambitious risks with its experimental premise and high-budget visual elements, though these efforts are often viewed as uneven in their execution. | |
| Acting | Performances are a major point of contention; while Anushka Sharma is highlighted for a believable portrayal, Shah Rukh Khan’s experimental performance divides opinion between daring ambition and a failure to elicit genuine sympathy. |
