Mumbai – July 11, 2025 : Rajkummar Rao’s latest film Maalik X hit theatres this weekend and has already become a trending topic on social media. The film, a gritty socio-political drama, has sparked conversations for its bold narrative and Rao’s intense, emotionally charged performance. While Maalik X has received mixed to positive reviews, fans and critics alike are praising the actor’s dedication and ability to carry the film on his shoulders.

The movie follows the journey of a man who rises from the slums to become a powerful but controversial leader. It explores themes of power, morality, loyalty, and betrayal, all set against a politically charged backdrop. Directed by Anurag Kashyap, Maalik X attempts to challenge the viewer with a raw, unapologetic tone and complex characters.

Rajkummar Rao plays the title role with a level of commitment that has become his trademark. Audiences on X (formerly Twitter) have called his performance “career-defining” and “deeply moving.” One user wrote, “Rajkummar Rao doesn’t act - he becomes the character. Maalik X is proof that he’s in a league of his own.” Another fan commented, “Even when the script gets shaky, Rao’s presence keeps you glued to the screen.”

However, the film’s screenplay and pacing have received some criticism. Some viewers felt the second half dragged in places and that the film tried to take on too many social issues at once, causing the narrative to lose focus. A few critics noted that the storytelling felt “heavy-handed” at times and could have benefitted from tighter editing.

Despite the uneven script, most reviews agree that Maalik X is a compelling watch because of Rajkummar Rao’s central performance. The supporting cast, which includes Divya Dutta and Jaideep Ahlawat, has also been praised for their nuanced portrayals. The cinematography, use of gritty urban landscapes, and haunting background score add to the film’s intense mood.

Trade analysts predict that Maalik X will perform decently at the box office, especially given the strong word-of-mouth and the fanbase Rao has built over the years. It may not be a massy blockbuster, but it is expected to do well in metro cities and among fans of realistic, content-driven cinema.

In a film industry often dominated by spectacle and star power, Maalik X stands out for its daring storytelling and raw performances. While it may not be a flawless film, it succeeds in starting important conversations and reminds audiences why Rajkummar Rao remains one of the most dependable actors of his generation.
