The Hindustan Times review of Sarfira states, “There has been quite some time we saw this vulnerable side of the actor (Akshay) on the big screen. Though Mission Raniganj (again a biopic) and Raksha Bandhan showed him bring that side out, but the way Sarfira presents him looks like a gamechanger. There’s rawness, conviction and sincerity in his portrayal and he doesn’t let you blink an eye each time he is in the frame. The portions, where he is training at the air force camp, look physically taxing, and at 56, he is acing it like nobody’s business.”
After Sarfira, Akshay will be seen in Khel Khel Mein, Sky Force, Singham Again, Jolly LLB 3, Welcome to the Jungle, Shankara, Hera Pheri 3, and Housefull 4.
