Ajay Devgn wrote, “Dear Akki, I’ve been hearing good reviews of BellBottom. Also your leap in making it a theatrical release is praiseworthy. With you in this.” Akshay responded, “Thank you so much brother, means a lot. I pray Maharashtra opens up soon and you’d be able to watch it. Would love to know your thoughts.”

Indian Express critic Shubhra Gupta called BellBottom a ‘racy, pacy entertainer’. “‘BellBottom’ works on its stated metrics of see, no complexities, everything easy. Fun and games and rat-a-tat action, and no hostages lost, just as they didn’t in real life after the rescue operation was pulled off successfully. We get the flag, but no strident flag waving. We get Bad Pakistani Terrorists who brainwash Hapless Indians, but no loud jingoism. Bad guys lose. Good guys win,” she wrote.

Akshay Kumar has Prithviraj, Atrangi Re, Bachchan Pandey and Sooryavanshi in the pipeline as well.
