The Ajay Devgn movie drags on and on, making it a literal snooze fest after a certain point. Ratings: 2/5 Review By: Sonup Site:Indian Express

In fact, with Ajay Devgn not only acting but also directing, Shivaay is Singham (minus the khaki uniform) transported to Sofia and the Balkan mountains. “Shivaay Himalaya ke siva nahin jee sakta,” he tells her rather airily. But he is in no mood to accompany her to her homeland. The hero falls for a Bulgarian girl Olga (Polish actress Erika Kaar). The Shivaay screenplay is predicated on a weak, arbitrary premise. Except in the Devgnverse, Nawazuddin Siddiqui is replaced by Vir Das - a decision that really tells you all you need to know about this film. Shivaay’s kidnapped daughter, played by an adorable girl called Abigail Eames, is a mute child, which makes me believe that this film is, on some warped level, Devgn’s version of Salman Khan’s highly effective Bajrangi Bhaijaan. Ratings: 1/5 Review By: Raja Sen Site:Rediff His wish to incessantly harp on the ‘father-daughter drama’ makes his action thriller dreary, an odd mishmash of multiple genres that leaves you exhausted.Boasting of great production values, we wish Ajay had invested in a better story as well.Overall, Ajay is unstoppable in Shivaay but you wish he wasn’t! Laced with visual excellence, you applaud his film’s larger than life canvas but despite the efforts, his second directorial venture fails to engage you. Ratings: 3/5 Review By: Renuka Site:Times Of India Given the high price at which it has been acquired by the distributors, it will entail heavy losses to them. It may find favour with the masses and single-screen cinema audiences but its run in the multiplexes will not be smooth at all. On the whole, Shivaay is a slow and often boring human drama with very limited emotional appeal and little entertainment value. Ratings: - Review By: Komal Nahta Site:Zee ETC Bollywood Business Way too much noise.I’m going with two out of five. In the end, there’s little else to Shivaay than the eye-watering locations (both in the Himalayas and in Bulgaria), and occasionally poignant moments between Devgan and the little girl who plays his daughter. Way too much talking.Frankly, that’s as much time it would take to watch Liam Neeson rescue his daughter in the first Taken, and then his wife in Taken 2 – those are both roughly 90-minute films. Ratings: 2/5 Review By: Rajeev Masand Site:CNN News18Ījay Devgan’s Shivaay is basically Taken with a big helping of melodrama, and a lot of talking.
