Controversies, rape analogies and consequent apologies (not) be damned, Sultan and the Bhai of Bollywood are the definite winners. If Twitter is anything to go by and #Sultan the barometer of success, the movie will perhaps break all Box Office records.
Leading movie reviewers have given it atleast a 4-star rating, with almost everybody calling it a ‘Blockbuster’. While praising the movie, critic Taran Adarsh claimed that #Salmania is at its peak. 
DNA even went as far as to call it Salman's best career portrayals.
Fans aside, B-town too took to social media to gush about the movie and Salman Khan’s performance.
 
However, KRK had something not too pleasant to say about the movie.
Bhai fans needless to say are going ga-ga over the film.
