In his review for NDTV, film critic Saibal Chatterjee gave Yodha 1.5 out of 5 stars and wrote, “Everything in Yodha, an insufferably scrappy thriller, is a bewildering blur. Figuring out what is going on is best left to troopers who have no fear of the unfathomable. Early in the film, the protagonist walks out of a deep river with a smoke bomb in his hand. It emits the three colours of the national flag. The guy sure knows the technique to keep a smoke-flare dry in water. He does even better in the climax with another tricolour-spewing smoke bomb that survives an explosion and a full-blown inferno.”
Yodha has been jointly backed by Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions, Amazon Prime Video, and Mentor Disciple Entertainment.
