Nana Patekar-starrer Vanvaas a plodding affair: The Indian Express
The Indian Express gave one and a half out of five stars to Anil Sharma's directorial 'Vanvaas', starring Nana Patekar and Utkarsh Sharma. The family drama starts in Varanasi, ends in Palampur in Himachal Pradesh, and feels every metre of that 1,391-km distance, the review read. "In parts, Anil suggests he's capable of a more thoughtful film," it read.
