Good to see Veer proving to be a veer at the box office too. 😛

Hope it continues to do well. 😃

How I dislike this A**kissers critics? 😡🤢....

I really really hope that Veer emerges a hit. Salman really deserves it!...

Aladinji: You have seen the movie right? Was it that bad the way the critics reviewed it? Did it deserve such a rating buy the critics?

I love Salman!!.......

Thanks

but lol pn their face.. bhuuuuuuuuuuuu

I saw it and it's a great movie. Very well made. Performances were excellent, especially Salman and Mithun's.

The only explanation about critics is maybe that they were influenced in some way or other, because ratings don't make sense at all. They gave MAMK better ratings than Veer. 😆 So, yeah. Maybe they are paid off or it's some conspiracy to bring down the movie. Everyone seems to want to write off the movie but it's still doing well. So, whoever wants to write it off because they hate Salman can go to hell. 😛

You should definitely watch it. You won't be disappointed. 😃

I hope it continues to do well. True test would be the coming week.
