Critic Reviews
Zero (2018) Review: Shah Rukh Khan's Big Swing and Miss
★★½☆☆
Zero is Aanand L. Rai's ambitious Hindi romance starring Shah Rukh Khan as a short-statured bachelor from Meerut, lively at first but lost in a shapeless second half.
Mostly no. Shah Rukh Khan and Anushka Sharma commit fully, but the film loses its way badly after the interval. Only for devoted SRK fans curious about a bold misfire.
